On My Mind...

We've had 15 inches of snow in the last week and I have a stack of grading at least that high (I exaggerate, but it is daunting), but I am thinking vigorously of things to write about.

"Like what?" you ask, full of skepticism.

Like a list of things, emotions, and ideas that folks seem to be experiencing in new and often difficult ways as 50 looms, things like

* Saying Goodbye, When You Thought You Were Done With Such Things
* Watching Young People Doing the Same Things You Did 30 Years Ago
* Sadness
* Taking Over the Reins
* Skin

I would welcome any additions or suggestions.
