#1 and #2

Okay--having this blog is #2. I already had a gmail/google account, so #1 was a done deal. Please don't write me to my gmail account, though. I really don't read it. I have my school account kfinley@access.k12.wv.us and I'm on Facebook and then I have my home address at aol which I've had forever--created when we returned from Kuwait about 12 years ago.

If you want to check to see if I do have a gmail account: hurricanefinley1000@gmail.com

I took this background photo in Venice more than three years ago. It was the last hurrah for my film camera. This was my last roll of black and white. I got back home and was gifted with a digital at Christmas time. I love Venice more than any other place on earth. My family promises to scatter my ashes in the canals. Even in death, I will cling to the edifices I love to gaze upon.

New Year - On With the Project

It's getting to be dusk on the eve of our return back to school. My daughters are off on a long walk, probably about 3-4 miles total. My dear husband just went to Pittsburgh to be with his parents; his dad is having surgery tomorrow and Howard will be there to help him with recovery. Two more weeks of this semester and I feel like it's too long for some classes and way too short for others. I will miss some of my students--others: meh.

I had no alone time. That's what bothers me about these school vacations. I get to be home--and so does everyone else. My lack of focus with others around means I accomplish nothing. Nothing.

Well, back to the Red Bull and the quiet of the house. Quiet for about 30 more minutes.
