I’ve been away from the blog for a while – but not for lack of want. I’ve got a fellowship this semester and I am LOVING it, but I’m finding myself writing a lot for my other blog and for a few new ones associated with the fellowship. Anyway, I’ve started several posts and hope to get them out a little more regularly.
This semester has been a lot busier, just in the way of schedules. Last semester I was only gone one evening, but this semester I’m gone for three evenings.Fortunately I don’t have any morning classes, so I get to spend the a.m.’s with the kiddos and get them off to school. Then I head into the city to my fellowship. I’m putting in about 20 hours at the fellowship, and I love it!
I was afraid I would be over-stretching by adding on another 20 hours of commitment, but I’m actually getting a lot done. I take the subway in to work, then to class, then back home, and all of the time that I spend on the train I get reading and other work done. Its great! The first week or two, I got a little motion sick (reading while moving!), but it didn’t take me long to get over it. Now I get almost all of my reading done on the train, and then finish things up after the kids go to bed.
Speaking of which, I’ve got a short paper to work on. If I can get it done tonight, then I won’t have to worry about it later – its not due until the end of the semester, but I’m trying to keep things from building up at the end!
