Unplugged

This past week has been a busy week. I've had all day meetings and lots of work. Not really a bad week but very busy.

However, I've been out of sorts. Something just didn't feel right. I felt disconnected. And finally I realized why. I have had little time to spend online - reading blogs and connecting with my online friends. And that's when I realized that my connections online are an important part of my network.

I do get many ideas from my blog friends. But it's more than that. I follow what they are doing in their classrooms and in their lives. I feel connected to them as I do the colleagues I see every day. I get inspired and encouraged. And this week, I missed being with my friends.

So, thank you, online friends, for your ideas and your friendship. I missed you last week. And I'll be back this week, so watch your comments spaces!

Some of my regular connections are in the column at the right. Who are your favorite connections?
