- A woman I know from student services called me out of the blue and asked if she could drop by my office hour this morning at the community college where I teach. I said, "sure," but while I waited for her to get there I wracked my brain trying to...
- The end of classes for the 2017-2018 school year is coming Friday at the community college where I teach. At first I'll feel like I've been shot out of a canon. I'll have final exams and final term papers to grade Saturday and Sunday with...
- Just yesterday I was telling a friend of mine that I didn't know if I could keep teaching the next 2 years to retirement as a professor at a college where my having come out about service here at DS PTSD has been punished ever since I went up for...
- I had a nice surprise at my college yesterday. I teach nursing students at a community college, and a student I had in class last year showed up unannounced at lunch time in the cafeteria. She had the day off from her job at a hospital an hour...
- A co-worker suggested this week that I watch the HBO movie Paterno about the Penn State child abuse scandal. I live just 2 hours away from Penn State, so I live in Paterno country. I'm a football fan, too, so my response bears that in mind. ...
- Hi, all. For the past year I've been going through the step by step screening process to qualify for my insurance company to pay for bariatric weight loss surgery for me in May or June. I had to go through cardio and other physical tests, and...
- Hi, all. For those who are newer here and don't know my history, I grew up in a war zone overseas as a missionary kid and got PTSD there. Back in the USA, I became a hospital chaplain from my own PTSD recovery, working in an ER with trauma...
- Just checking in, no real problems, but wanting to keep CL contact. By the way, though I learned here that the word for it isn't "dashboard," cluster of links at the top of my Daily Strength page keeps changing in its functionality. After...
- Just a note to say that I am so happy that last night, Thursday night, I was able to keep the first solid food in me of the week since I started to be so sick Sunday. Then it was a thrill for me that I had my first solid breakfast today...
- Just like when I returned from my job interview trip to North Carolina two weeks ago, today I was sick again when I returned from my Spring Break week to Mexico. I started throwing up at 4:30pm when I got in, and I haven't stopped at 2am...
- I'm processing my 20% feelings of rejection from the news I just got a while ago that I didn't get the Chair's job I interviewed for last week. The 80% grown up is not too surprised, though. I was a demanding candidate who had tenure already...
- I made it to San Cristobal, Chiapas, Mexico at 2am, y'all.Now I plan to sleep for a whole day and a whole night....:-)
- Oh, geez. After reserving a hotel that was supposedly close enough to the airport to make my 6am flight, I missed it by 5 minutes. Since it was a super discounted non-refundable ticket, it looked like that was it. No Mexico for me.I asked...
- I'm in a hotel by the airport--my plane leaves at 6am, so all I have to do is roll over there and get on my PLANE!!! YAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!! I'm so lucky I got better this fast. Wednesday night I was still being sick in my bathroom, really worried...
- Hello, all,I'm not a CL who is also an IT person, so I need some help. As of yesterday, there's been a change in the format of DS in what I assume in IT language is known as the "dashboard." If not, please forgive and bear with me. What I'm...
