PANDEMIC, YEAR ONE

If you have read my blog over the years, you know there are gaps in my writing, but never more so than now! With my last post being in October 2020, a lot has changed.

First of all, I DID start a podcast! My good friend and fellow blogger, Anne Stricherz and I talk weekly about a multitude of topics, guided by our faith. The fondue pot is like a melting pot: throw it in, heat it up, and see what emerges; our podcast is the same. And just like Switzerland, home of the fondue pot, we are neutral when it comes to politics. FAITH FONDUE is currently housed on YouTube.

I also started a guest spot on a radio show. The co-author of Advice From a Patient and I were invited to be guests on The Charlie Adams radio show in December. This led to a (return) segment to discuss my book, What Though the Odds. This, in turn, led to an invitation to appear bi-weekly to discuss my view on world (or sometimes local) events. It runs the first and third Tuesday of the month, around 7:07am.

I went back to work - in person - at my boys’ elementary school. It is SO nice to be back in a school environment; and it is an extraordinary time to be working in education.
Thankfully, I still have the flexibility to keep my night job: in-person/live talks are starting to pick up as life slowly moves forward after a year of standing still.

So much of what Anne and I talk about on Faith Fondue would make a great blog post. No promises, but I need to start writing again.
