I have only a brief post because I am bound and determined to get all my pre-start course materials up to snuff and also the LMSs published and my greeting letters out to students before I go to bed tonight. I am doing nothing else other than dinner until they are all done!
That way, I should be able to focus on all my organisms tomorrow before heading to the Retiree’s Cigar Group in the early afternoon Thursday! It will unfortunately be the last one for at least a few weeks because of my schedule. That disappoints me and I am not sure what I will do next week regarding this.

Nothing wrong with an brief post.
ReplyDeleteYou're doing an impressive job of posting! I'm retired and can't manage to post every day. (not that I would have much to share, being boringly retired)
ReplyDeleteTeacher busyness comes in waves.
ReplyDeleteMy worry for you, regarding the Retirees' Cigar Group, is that you've been letting your body get used to some of the nicotine you used to get from your pipes... such that if you don't have the controlled environment of the Group for a few weeks, your PCS may skyrocket but leave you feeling worried that you dare not indulge in a pipe to relieve the craving.
ReplyDeleteYou know that my advice all along has been that you not settle for the "It's not a pipe" solace of cigars, but that you accept yourself as a pipe-smoking pipe smoker. Given your likely absence from the Group for much of this coming semester, I just wish that you could find some way to enjoy the succor of your pipes while ALSO enjoying the camaraderie of a group.
