Transitions Take Time (Revisited)

 

Taking a break from trying to keep up with ChatGPT as a learning tool and revisiting an archive of David-in-Carroll-Land blog pieces.

Rediscovering some things I wrote a few years ago as I continue my relearning of what WordPress can do. The text below was written at the end of October 2018. Oh, how naive I was!

This last year as a university professor poses interesting challenges to time management and prioritizing. I underestimated how much time (and disruption) would be caused by ALMOST having a Milwaukee World Series, mastering new MAC and PC operating systems, accepting the opportunity to become an APS Wikipedia Fellow (essentially taking a weekly course), teaching a class I hadn’t taught for two years on one weeks notice, creating a newly taught Wikipedia component in my course, migrating from David-in-Carroll-Land to Curious-David-Redux, and protecting time for family, fun, and friends. Despite the headlines, life is good. so much to learn.
