5/6: devising

...the final writing prompts for the Myths & Picturebooks class.  I like the way I decided to list and divvy up possible things for them to focus on.

5/5: again trying to be okay

...about speaking up in a committee meeting, even though I was bringing up substantive issues that weren't necessarily welcome.

5/4: trying to be okay

...about standing up for myself when I had scheduled a room and people who hadn't scheduled it were using it.

5/3: new cat beds

...in various places around the house.

5/2: doing

...some necessary end-of-semester work, and feeling like I've made some progress with it.

5/1: seeing

...that people have taken poems from the poetry punchbowl.

4/30: a good conversation

...in the final Myth class of the semester about what Ovid's Metamorphoses emphasizes about the world, humans, human life, and its challenges.

4/29: the last regularly scheduled office hour

...of the academic year was this afternoon, and it was a good one.  A student reflected very thoughtfully on a project they had recently finished.
