Thoughts, links & ideas from the 2008 National Teacher of the Year

Each time I've taken off in a plane since May (which is a lot), I've been writing in my journal, then adding these journal entries on this blog.

Check in often, or subscribe to get headlines fed to you! Oh, and the views expressed here are not those of anyone but me.  And anyone who happens to share the same views, I guess.

(Note: the blue posted dates are actually the dates I wrote the journal entries, not when I posted them online.)

It is Finished! (emphasis on the "ish")

Los Angeles, CA

 

In the words of Jesus:  “It is finished!”

 

Of course, after he said that, he died.  And even then, he kept working.  For a couple thousand more years.  I have a feeling my job will continue to linger on like this, too.  But it’s important work, so that’s okay.

 

It’s just nice to have passed this major milestone.  Actually, we’re still on the runway, so I’m technically not quite there yet.  But pretty darn close!

 

And… liftoff!  I have risen!

    It was a great run Mike. You represented us well. Now enjoy your much needed and deserved family time: Climb rocks, hike trails, have fun. Keep in touch.
