as I worked on getting ready for Monday...I did NOT have a file folder on my hard drive for pathophysiology and I have NO idea why not. I taught this class last year. I think what I did was erase the file folder so I could transfer it off my flash since I had done a ton of work when I was at my parents in May/June then never transferred it. My goddess, if I had lost that flash or damaged it, I would have nothing. Scary. It's now in both places.

I did lose my how to write a research paper document for the students. Maybe it's only at work. Eh, it was weak anyhow. I'll redo it. I did get all my online stuff prepped. Ahead of time even. So proud of myself. This is the first time ever.

I have my icon in place anticipating its need during the first week of class.

I got out into the garden briefly. My black cherry tomato is popping with little tomatoes. Needs to buy salad fixings tomorrow. And I harvested a bunch of daylily seeds. I wonder what I'll get from them.

I know I have some people here who are interested in meditation. I have a new 21 day meditation challenge if anyone wants to give it a try with me. I routinuely do the ones with Deepka Chopra. In fact I'm just finishing that series up now. It's getting rather...the same with them but eh it's free. This is also free and Deva Premal is new to me but if you youtube her, she's definitely not new to this. She has a lovely voice. I'm looking forward to a new mentor in meditation. Hoping someone wants to join me in the gap.

I forgot to mention that there is a wellness commission on campus and I plan to email them and take on even more responsibilities if I can. They're trying to get yoga on campus. cross your fingers for this one!

Okay back to the writing. Elmore Leonard passed on this week and someone put up a bunch of his writing quotes. I love this one The writer has to have patience, the perseverance to just sit there alone and grind It out. And if it’s not worth doing that, then he doesn’t want to write

Thank goodness you found your materials! There are files I've lost over the years that I still am sorry are gone.

I might be interested in the meditation, but it's hard to tell from the website what exactly involved.

I heard about Elmore Leonard. Too bad.

me too. I've lost entire novels. sigh.

if it's anything like the Deepka Chopra ones, you listen to a guided mediation for about 15 minutes. I figure it's free. If I don't like it (like the art of love seminar) I don't bother

yeah. I'll be honest I wasn't really a fan but it's hard to deny his impact

Since I'm on the tail end of fine revisions, "sit there alone and grind It out" really speaks to me.

I hear you. I'm waiting on my editor to get me my revisions and I'm getting nervous and antsy

I have really learned to love Dropbox (https://www.dropbox.com/) for preventing all those problems that come with using different computers in different places...

It won't load on my work computer because it's frozen and since we have 3 IT people for the entire campus I'm still on a waiting list to have them come install it. head desk

Work computers suck--and insufficient IT sucks even more.
