My final class of the semester wrapped up this past Monday evening. After the student groups presented their final projects, I began the snowy drive home. I arrived and departed from Elmira Tim Hortons at around 10:30pm. It’s normally close to an hour to home from that point. That night it took us two hours….
Our laundry room project that was launched in August is nearing completion. This past week, my final vacation allotment for the year, Erika and I tiled the floor. We attempted something new–tiling on diagonal. For those who aren’t up on tiling terminology, that’s what you call laying tiles on a 45 degree angle. Rather than…

I receive a lot of “we’ve picked you” e-mails. For example, “you’ve been selected as a distinguished professional” or “congratulations, you have been chosen to receive a large sum of cash.” I know the tag lines so well that I don’t give the subject a second look before it gets permanently filed in my junk…
