Connie says hi

Hi everybody! Here's a blog from Connie.

Your blogs (you who posted) are great, thanks for posting. We are looking forward to Karl's graduation on May 23. Congrats to the youngest cousin of his generation, and best wishes.

I'm up early every morning, getting myself to the 6:39 train. Two classes for jail residents every day. I love my men. Wish I could pour motivation into their heads through their mouths. I had SIX men graduate last month! One was signed up for this month, but he went to discipline, so he could not take the test after all. :(

My two classes at Loyola were challenging, especially the on-line class, Theologies of Suffering, which had reading and writing assignments every week, then respond to others' posts. The professor kept complaining that my submissions didn't relate the material to my life. Hmmm. It was great! I am glad to be done. Not taking any academic classes this summer.

I hope to catch up with myself in the next few weeks. Be able to just stop and appreciate a swatch of beauty. Might take an art class. Think I'll go to Washington DC for the progressive spirituality conference in June. (11-16)

Well I look forward to seeing you all in July!
