Ok, that title is misleading, but it feels right. I haven't really changed this semester, but I do feel rejuvenated. I failed rather miserably at my car-free experiment, partly due to weather, but also due to me. I am at peace with this and realise that I am not yet cut-out to be a rainy-weather cyclist. Notice that I said "yet."
Teaching is off to a good start. I finally feel organised in the classroom, a feeling I'd been sorely lacking since my mother's death. I certainly miss my mother, but I am so happy to feel more in control and at peace with my life.
This semester, I am taking two classes: Environmental Ethics and Animal Protection. I have almost finised 2 of the books and will write about them here shortly. I feel so at home in this program and am confident that pursuing this degree was the right choice for me.
I have sprouted spagetti squash and apple seeds and have some sturdy little plants going. I am giving container gardening a go; let's hope the squirrels don't get to the plants before I can.
