Her rules are really easy:
1. Grab the Pondering with a Purpose Badge (in her sidebar)
2. Look at the week's prompt
3. Post something on your blog that relates to the prompt - it can be a story, a poem, a picture -- anything you want it to be.
4. Go back here and add the URL from your post to the linky list on Brenda's.
5. Go check out the other bloggers who have added their links to the list.
6. AND most of all.... Have fun!
So this week the subject is: Routine
Routines - I guess they are essential but can be so BORING at times. Other times they can be stressful. Mostly I think they are somewhat comforting. You get into a routine and it just feels comfortable. If something causes that routine to change, it upsets your whole day. My routine is about to change. The Spring 2012 semester is upon me and I am taking two classes -Ethical, Social and Legal Issues in the Digital World and Advanced Microcomputer Applications. I don't think they will be all that challenging, at least I hope not but I will still have to get back into the routine of doing homework and studying. I often ask myself why I am doing this to myself at the age of 52. More often, I think "Why wouldn't I?" Tuition is free (comes with the job) and I just can't think of any reason not to take advantage of it. So my routine will change next week when classes begin. It may take me a while to get back into the swing of it - or it may just come naturally.
Tami- thanks for pondering.... good luck with your classes. and what kind of names are those anyway??? Who would have thought of those classes 40 years ago? Sure shows you the times are changing! :)
ReplyDeleteBrenda - times have definitely changed - last semester I had to take a class called Global Social Networking - and these are REQUIRED classes and GRADUATE LEVEL - unbelievable!
ReplyDeleteWhen you stop learning you get old, I probably will take classes of some kind until I am 100. Good luck with yours.
ReplyDeleteHi Tami, Wow --are you working on your Master's??? What field? I got my master's degree years ago... Luckily, since I was a single parent raising my sons at that time, my work paid for my education and gave me time off... Amazing!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck.
Hugs,
Betsy
