I still ask myself "Where has summer gone?" Weather has been quite nice, the kind of weather I like being at the Cape. I seem to be suffering "brain freeze" as far as posting on my blog. . . On the quiet I do read the comments you send in and then 'post them' for the WholeWideWorld to read and oooooh and aaaaah about. . .
We are back in full session at the Uni, almost like we never left and went home back in May. . .or was it June? It's all like just last week. ;-) My own PhD program goes on and on: more and more work at the clinic and teaching are directly tying into it. This semester I am often "on call" at the clinic, available for students and anyone, really, who might want to stop in for a chat, or to work together on a regular basis. Already, gratefully, this is taking off and I have several regulars I meet with to "work on life". Doing that, I find, requires me to "work on my own life and relationships", the quality of and time I make to spend with Peter, not just on the fly, or when we are brushing our teeth, LOL, or unplanned conversations in the shower, or lying awake together at night, in the dark, just sharing "life". . . .what we are feeling, thinking about, wondering about, things we are enjoying. These night-time-in-the-dark-times are never for bitching or complaining, confronting: we do that in the clear light of day when our minds and emotions are fresh and clear: our personal "business times".
Peter is enjoying his own med-surgical program, both classes, and hands-on at the clinic/offices. He is becoming quite good at it and has learned a great deal which he puts into practice. I'm impressed.
Of course, I've been impressed with Peter for some time now. . .and it grows.
This year I am contracted for one Intro Psych class, three days a week. I have one group, heavily male in make-up, a very inquisitive group of people: lots of questions and discussion, lot of ideas and interaction. This is rewarding because it all just seems to happen naturally: I don't have to pull it out of them. . . .like the class period isn't long enough to cover all the irons in the fire so to speak; always a lot for next class.
So, friends, things are going well. . . .and I am quite happy with that.
Oh here's a curious photo. . . .I am not quite sure of the transaction
going on here. . . LOL
. . . .perhaps his ass goes to the highest bidder. . . .this shot was not taken during class time. . . not into auctions. . . ho ho ho
There'll be more to come. . . .that's for sure. . .no no ...not auctions
but happenings on JUSTIN'S DUNES. . . .
