summertime and the livin' is...

 

When I had a job and June rolled around, I always eased up a bit, even if only psychologically. Summer was the annual excuse for a lesser sense of urgency, slightly smaller expectations (especially for someone working at a newspaper in a region that many readers had made their seasonal exodus from).

After I got laid off, I wasn't quite sure how to react to summer. Can someone who works at home still justifiably enjoy the season of slow?

This summer the question is even more complicated, as a year ago at this time I had a job, which I quit in January. So for half of the year I was one of the nine-to-fivers. Does that entitle me to a month and a half of easy living? Or to trips that take me to places that don't get guidebooks?

Tomorrow I'm off to Nazareth, Pennsylvania.

Retired ten years and still feel Friday nights should be celebrated, Saturday’s for household chores, and Sunday, isn’t there something I ought to be doing?

By blurring the surroundings of an object, the focus on the object is
enhanced and the picture looks like sharpened.
For this to be realized, teachers should become familiar with
the technology that students are already well versed in: Facebook, Twitter,
and Pinterest (to name only 3). This can make it easier for them to
find you on Twitter.
