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.

Guess Who is Coming to See Grampie?

Medford is apparently pretty chilly. Lake Worth is too but relatively speaking a low of 49 degrees is not cold. Just weeks until the party commences. Jason has contacted their mutual Belize dive buddies and Matthew will celebrate his 40th birthday on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. Birthday party afterwards.

I was right about being visited with a bug: sore throat, fever, runny nose, cough, lassitude. Mona Vie made a believer out of me- nearly instant relief from the sore throat. Fortunately the medicine cabinet otherwise is well stocked. Blogging is useful to me- I had a glimmer and checked. I had a similar disease bout on the 28th of January 2006. A pattern? I am on the mend in any case but resting is good. I have been riding the bike but that is pretty much it. Keeping myself and my germs to myself.

Already new neighbors. These hold some promise.
