A poem for a writing challenge, dark and dreary.   Kind of Halloweeny, and like all my poems, not very good. :)  Death poetry is kind of a cop out.]]>

With this lesson plan, the children will hopefully gain an understanding of what a still life is when talking about art, and revisit the idea that learning to draw and paint is observation.  It means really paying attention, like so many things in life.  Hopefully this lesson will also link to many other Fall activities that are taking place in their classroom.]]>

<![CDATA[
Women and Mechanics: The Never Ending Struggle. You would think that by the 21st century, in a progressive, western, free thinking country that women could be treated with a modicum of dignity and respect when dealing with mechanics. Well, I would like to think so. I even go in hopeful, every time I need something fixed on my car. Every time.]]>

With your first car comes many things: excitement, responsibility, a sense of freedom and the feeling that you're finally an adult - even if you're 30. It's a big step and a big decision. Don't screw it up.]]>

I am thirty eight years old, and like most of us who have lived to middle age I am finding myself at points of reflection during the day. As I look back on my life I see many things that have framed it, shaped it, made me who I am today with all the views and opinions that I hold and force down peoples throats. There are moments in that life that seem to be turning points, moments that changed everything and shaped who I am. No offense to my Mother, who is the central formational figure in my life, but you will not be mentioned any further. Don&rsquo;t take it amiss. Just think to yourself, what would Yoda do?]]>
