MILI


Last week I received an e-mail from one of the MILI (Metronet Information Literacy Initiative) instructors explaining that by the end of February we should have 28 posts.  I needed six, so I sat down at my computer and entered six posts (from 3:19 pm to 3:43 pm).  My posts were complete crap, but when I finished, my total number of posts was 28.  At least in one of my posts, I was honest and stated that I found it difficult to post every week about technology although I am constantly using it in my classroom and personal life.  I'm not even sure why I felt the need to have the number of needed posts since I'm taking the class for the information and not the credits.  The credits are not going to help me.  Then this morning a colleague, whom I respect as much as anyone on our staff, told me he was impressed with my weekend posts.  When he said this, it made my entire day (perhaps week).

Maybe my motto for the week is post even if it's crap!

Today I'm thankful for...
1) Kind words
2) Dinner with friends
3) The sun setting later in the evening

I always love when someone reads anything I write on line. Are you learning about any new cool techs?

Sankalpa Day 5

Today I went back to the interweb to find out what I could post about that would relate to sankalpa .  "...Sankalpa has the potential to release tremendous power by clearly defining and focusing on a chosen goal."  My chosen goal since May has truly been on being physically active.  Since it's cold and miserable out, I've been being active inside instead of outside.  December 6th (or something like that) was the last time I ventured outside for physical activity.  I, however, have still been going to they gym and focusing on being physically fit (or at least burning enough calories to eat more food).  Yesterday I received an early morning text from a friend in God's Country .  President Obama was talking about "The President's Challenge" .  Today (I tried yesterday and decided to put it off until today... forget out it... let it happen... put it aside... clear my mind of it... all probably sankalpa) I formed a group.  The...

What if... The Delivery

  Molly was excited to get a package from her friend who lives in Alaska.  When she opened the box, she was confused.  Although the shirt was actually soft and of good quality, she was upset by the guns in the flag.  When she googled Holster's, it was exactly what she thought... pro-gun.  She didn't know how to handle the situation, so she sent a picture stating she was confused. Her friend had obviously lost her mind.  During the conversation, she kept proclaiming that she hadn't sent a t-shirt.  When Molly explained it was her writing on the box, things became weird.  The friend was in a state of denial.  Molly even sent a text with a picture of the writing on the box. Molly's friend was adamant that she sent homemade condiments.  She wouldn't give up on her story even though it was clear Molly is in possession of an NRA type t-shirt.  After much deliberation, the two friends realized what had happened.  The original box, wit...

Missing You

Two Sundays ago I missed church because I was out of town. Last Sunday I missed church because I could not get to church due to the marathon (blocking my path... not my running). Dad and I tried to leave early, but we did not leave early enough. I joked with Dad about the fact that they would miss me at church. When I checked my e-mail this evening, I actually had an e-mail from my pastor saying I was missed. It was a short e-mail, but it was sweet and definitely a positive part of my day.
