"We who are clay blended by the Master Potter, come from the kiln of Creation in many hues. How can people say one skin is colored, when each has its own coloration? What should it matter that one bowl is dark and the other pale, if each is of good design and serves its purpose well."

a whirlwind

Ninth quater is promising to be exciting and challenging. This quarter National Boards are scheduled, so I will have to see how that goes. Week one is almost concluded and I feel dazed and confused though there is a new beginning on the horizon. Only a few more quarters remain....

summer quarter

I am back from Fresno. It had been over 100 F during my entire break. San jose feels like winter compared to Fresno with average between 70-80. A few highs in the 90s but it is still a good break from my "vacation". It is the beginning of 9th quarter......bring it on.
