hiatus.

So apparently I took a blogging hiatus. I don't know, maybe blogs have a lifespan. Maybe this ones time is up? Or maybe last semester was just insanely busy, and while I thought I could handle two blogs at once, no make that three... I couldn't quite pull it off. I'm still not sure I can... but I'm not quite ready to give up on this one yet either. Lets see how this semester goes. It looks promising. 20 students. Thats right, just 20! No accreditation team coming. No 'new' classes to develop and teach. Margaret is back, which means homestays are again a shared responsibility-- hooray! And... well... life is good! Things are really good. Two more weeks of 'summertime,' before we hit the office officially, August 5.

Some of my goals for the rest of 2013:
- To work hard and play hard- meaning, enjoying the goodness and fullness of my job, but not letting it consume my life.
- To find time/space to dust off a few little projects. (And keep blogging.)
- To dig deeper and more intentionally into community here.

Ok, thats good for now. Don't want to get overly ambitious... So... heres to 2013, take two!
