The sad fact, when you are in the people business, is that people die. And when they go, they leave a hole in your life that cannot be filled.

Yesterday we learned of the passing of the library media specialist at Westmere Elementary School (Guilderland Schools), Micki Nevett. Micki was just so much more than words can describe. I will miss her smarts, her boldness and her wit. I will miss her giggle! I will miss her friendship. So young, so vital, so much to give – Micki’s passing is just not fair. It’s not fair to her family who loved her so, to the students in her school who adored her – nor to the many, many people who called her “friend”. Like me.
Not a good day.

What a group of Tech Campers we had this October!
Rensselaerville Institute is as lovely in the fall as any other time of year. Great friends, great food and great trainers! What a dynamic combination. When we left Tech Camp our heads were spinning with new vocabulary – blogs, wikis, nings and tags! But we had a wonderful time and accomplished a lot!
We even Skyped Suzanne’s daughter in Las Vegas.
And there was ice cream!
THIS is what it’s all about!
