I'm responsible, in the end, for all the students in the program. I tried the person responsible for pick-ups first, and only went when I couldn't reach her. Unusual sense of responsibility in a middle child!Climenheisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01989459133238230712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997270.post-44334082234179906572007-05-07T20:35:00.000-05:002007-05-07T20:35:00.000-05:00This post of yours points out to me one way in whi...This post of yours points out to me one way in which you & I are very different. I am not sure I would have hauled myself out of bed to pick up a stranded student. Then, I suppose, since you direct the DOM modules, you have an obligation. <BR/>I think my personality (Myers-Briggs--a very strong J / planner) makes it hard for me to go with the flow. I don't like doing that.<BR/>You and Denise both remember sage advice from Mother. I remember something a bit more humorous. When Carlin & I were dating, and spending lots of time together, she told me "familiarity breeds contempt" (I assume suggestng we spend less time together). I recall I responded--yes, but absence makes the heart grow fonder. Dueling maxims!KGMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05165941950953938943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997270.post-85680772990761637532007-05-07T20:00:00.000-05:002007-05-07T20:00:00.000-05:00Glad you had a good, unexpected experience.

I also remember Mother's sage advice - I still miss it and am grateful for what we had in her.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12087460233450228864noreply@blogger.com
