I’m enjoying this summer’s extended warmth but also wonder what it means for the planet, climate, and seasons.
I’ve been thinking a lot about shared experiences. I appreciate that school, with the ban on mobile phones, offers a space for shared experiences for our students. I spend less time on my phone. I love being present with the people I work with and our students for those hours during the day.
I’m back to work after a long and warm summer. Teaching has exceeded my expectations. I enjoy walking around the school, speaking to people and getting to hear about a wide variety of lives lived. I like the routine of the days and the learning.
I don’t have any posts to share this month. I have read a lot, but there’s been a lot of doomscrolling, so why share that – it’s everywhere!
I’ve joined Substack and spend my attention there. I haven’t posted and may never.
I’ve enjoyed reading this summer and lots of time with my family.
Here is a photo with a view from the hammock I shared with my grandson last week. Time with him is precious to me.
