About Me

Name:
Location: Arapahoe, Wyoming, United States

(Note: Blogs read from bottom to top; scroll down for beginnings, scroll up for most current.) After 30 years in public administration and four degrees, as well as numerous workshops with luminaries in Education and Public Policy, life in a slower lane became a goal. Most recently I have done policy writing and consulting for the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes. Mostly, I am just coasting slowly and gently downhill these days-seeking joy where I can find it before the glorious ride ends.

Pestilence in Paradise

That lingering on and off again cough matured into a doozie. I am sitting quietly because my ribs hurt so much from coughing. Seems to be getting a little better today but I have thought this before. Bundled up and "broke the fever" last night. Have changed clothes twice because of the sweats. Nothing else doing with us. Goodie is always so attentive when I am sick. Hope whatever this is does not transmit to dogs. Cool gray days in Florida. Not missing much by being laid low but I am very tired of this bug.
