In my opinion, the roads around here are great for bicycling. I’m comparing it to Nashville, though, which is terrible for bicycling. Wisconsin may have better roads for it, but isn’t it cold a lot of the time there? We have great weather here most of the year.
I meant that I probably spent an hour a day reading the news (I would get up at 4, though…) an hour at least bicycling (often two) on schooldays, and I probably read a novel every two weeks. I think it’s important for the children that their teachers have a life outside of work; what kind of example of a fulfilled life are you setting for them if you don’t?
But I’m glad you write blog posts; I certainly didn’t do that, and I know how much time it takes.

]]>By the way, Peggy Bentley, I wish you would explain further your dissatisfaction. I would bet we can get to the bottom of it, and it will have something to do with standardized testing or developmentally inappropriate education of kindergarten students — which CANNOT be blamed on the teacher. That blame belongs to the state and federal legislature, and I would love to see you and other parents advocate for a developmentally appropriate education.
Jon Alfuth, as far as squeezing exercise into your life goes, I highly recommend bicycling to work.
