I remember when I had Covid in … Continue reading Fighting the Influenza and Appreciating my Students →

“What’s up, Sir?” – A Tribute To Preston Stock

It's hard to write a blog post about someone that has passed away - trying to find the right words to encapsulate someone's lifetime, in a brief written response. Honestly, I find it difficult because I never want to limit a person's lifetime to certain, finite moments; yet, it is important to remember that person … Continue reading “What’s up, Sir?” – A Tribute To Preston Stock →

National Anthem Blitz and Enjoying the Outdoors

Guten Morgen to you! I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the snowy, wintery months of February (unless your climate only offers sand and heat).

Saturday Morning Antics

My eyes open to a dark room, with a small stream of light passing between two curtains. It’s 8 a.m. - I can’t believe I actually slept in that long.
