My Forgotten Blog

This really should be the easiest part of this course, but I have forgotten to post here. I have really been caught up in a lot lately though, so something was bound to be forgotten. Work has kept me busy, and then finding out that I would not have the same work next year kind of threw me for a little while. It is weird sensing a total change of direction in your life, but it is also very liberating to know that you are not stuck in any one thing. I am considering doing things that are not even remotely related to English. I would like for my next job to be something where I spend a significant amount of time outdoors and/or doing some physically demanding work.

This is also the end of this course, but as one door closes another opens...but to what future?

I love surprises.

  1. Hi James, I can relate to the feeling about the blog posting getting lost in the daily shuffle we call life. I also understand your feeling of being at a loose end now that an important chapter in your life is ending. It's hard when we close chapters by choice, but when it is forced upon us, we can feel a powerlessness that is unsettling and can be scary. I wish you the best as you turn this page in your life - I'm glad to have shared this class with you. Teri
