Hello, friends. April Vacation, aka Spring Break, is nearly over. It feels like it went by quickly, of course, yet also not. Strange. I got to be with my daughters twice this week and saw my father with them, so that was good. Unfortunately, Pamela is dealing with an issue that has left her immobilized…

Hello, friends! The first week of April is done and here we are. Last week was the longest year ever! So much going on at work that I barely have time to think. Writing was slow this week, which I’ll talk about. I don’t have many thoughts to go into my intro this week so…

Hello, friends! Things that I’ve been worried about for months will be settled for good or for ill on Monday. I know at least a little of what is about to happen and while it settles some anxiety it causes new anxiety. I’ve considered calling former students to arms (not literal) for months now but…

Hello, friends! Is it possible to clench your jaw so hard that it snaps off, flying across the room and hitting someone in the forehead? I’m asking, as the kids say, for a friend. The sun is shining on this mid-March Saturday, the sound (noise) of children playing outside is coming through the sliding glass…

Hello, friends! I’m sitting here on Saturday afternoon feeling a little strange. On the one hand, I completed a major project, on the other, there’s still so much work to do. Such is the life of a creative. That said, Friday night was the first night that I didn’t sit down to write since September…

Hello, friends! Today’s post is a little later since I didn’t write it on Saturday like I usually try to do. Once again, the tension/stress of the week had me sleeping a lot yesterday and I just couldn’t get myself to write the update. Now we’re in March and spring is around the corner. There’s…

Hello, friends! I’m writing this later on Saturday night than I normally do and might have to finish this tomorrow. Things were busy today and I couldn’t get myself to the computer. This week was a good one but it had one bad moment. On Monday, I started a new medication and it didn’t agree…

Hello, friends! Another great week being Mr. Gauthier. Stress, heartache, anger, and fear have become the norm since 2020 but especially right now. That said, there have been some pluses. I had a student tell me I was their favorite teacher ever, which is always nice to hear. With vacation this week, there’s a bunch…
Hello, friends! I’m sitting here on Saturday night, nice and full from a delicious roast chicken dinner Pamela made. G is running around, playing her own musical à la Hamilton. We’ll probably do a family video game shortly and I’ll take a break from writing this. I’m writing this to remind myself of the good…

Hello, friends! Another week down and it was another crazy one. I had a medical consultation on Monday and a colonoscopy on Thursday. Work was both stressful and not, boring but really busy. Lots of disappointments and lots of fun. Let’s see… Welcome to the 55th installment of Gauthic Times, the newsletter about my writing,…
