Yeah...it's pretty nasty here. In fact, the MTA bus service that I use
to get into DC for my job isn't even running today...so I'm staying
home. Fortunately there's another instructor who's going to take my
class for me.
I met so many people last weekend that I must confess I am having
trouble placing you. I enjoyed the event so much...as did my husband
who is already making plans to attend again next year. I think that one
of the things I enjoy most is the opportunity to share information with
people who REALLY want to hear it. I spend my modern work teaching
people (adults) who are in class often because their bosses told them to
be there. So it's a real joy to teach because I want to, teach
something I really want to teach...and to people who really want the
information I bring to the table.
