Hi Elona,
It’s not easy! And I am not always successful at it either (as you can see by the length of time it took me to respond to your comment!). The past few blog posts (including this one) were written during or shortly after the workshops they reflected on. Sometimes the blog is silent for a while, sometimes my schoolwork is procrastinated via the blog, sometimes I have to take a day off of work to put things in perspective.

I do find that when I get a good night’s sleep everything seems to fall into place very nicely.

Your comment helped to inspire my call for sentences the other day. There were some great comments on how to fit everything in to our lives, including letting go of the things that don’t need to be fit in. Here are the sentences:

Impress me. What a great standard to keep.

When making an assignment one of our three daughters uses the line–”Impress me.” as the standard. She allows her students to present content learning in a variety of ways. Some are standard written papers, but others are open ended with it being up to the student to decide how he/she will present their content learning.

Tracy,
Why do anything unless it’s ging to be great. Love that line.

On another topic. How do you find time to do your papers and teach and …. I’m finding my blogging is really suffered since I started my MEd. I love it mind you, but the reading and work take up tons of time. Any advice. Maybe you could blog on that topic since you are so good at doing it. Really, I could use some help.

It’s one of my favourite lines, Angela. I forgot to mention that Peter Block said them first. I’ve edited the post

I love that. Thanks for sharing.
