Where In The World Is Sum1?

Teaching From Home

Locale: Central Illinois


         Last week found me home of course, enjoying life in a small 900 Sq. Ft House. Gee, reminds me of life on a submarine.  Except I can go out some, feel the weather, and enjoy life.  I delivered my first Fleetmapping class as an online class, after spending three weeks working on improving/modifying the course materials.  The class went well, with nice feedback received from the students.


         I've delivered classes online since 2002, but for the most part, mostly one class.  This class is a lot different, I really enjoyed delivering it.  Of course I didn't tell the students it was my first time delivering it, that would not have been good.  I was pleased with my delivery, the comments from the students made it all the better.


         Right now, I'll be home all of May, and go to Tokyo the first week of June.  But, Japan has travel restrictions in place, you cannot travel there if you've been in the US in the last 14 days.  My answer is that my boss should send me somewhere for 2 weeks, then send me to Japan!  Like that's going to happen. 


         It would be nice to think that this will all go back to how it was sometime in May, but I think it will take a lot longer to get there, IF we ever get there.  The world has changed, people have changed, some are acutely aware of how easy a virus can spread.  Guess they never watched 'The Stand', did they? 


         That's about it for now.  Stay home, stay safe and healthy.  Write all you can, love your loved ones, you never know when they may be called off God's Green Earth.  Til next time, be good to yourself, and once again, write!
