Joining the Jagiellonian University Community: a Fulbright Professor's Story 2011-12
The new school year began at the Jagiellonian University, which has been in business since 1364. This place is literally old school. For me, its just back to work as my courses at the Institute of American Studies and Polish Diaspora begin tomorrow; I am assembling my materials, collating my syllabi, and so on. On the other hand, if I actually THINK about where I am, its kind of awe-inspiring. Founded by King Kazimierz Wielki, this is the oldest university in Poland. It was the second university to be founded in Central Europe, after Prague in 1348. This is the place Copernicus studied.
Things were done here in Latin for the majority of the universitys history (that is how they rolled back then.) Although the university – with currently about 58,000 students – is massive and has buildings throughout Krakow, the historical centers are Collegium Maius and Collegium Novum. The former is the center of the medieval university – a gorgeous, amazing structure with vaulted ceilings, colorful frescoes, etc. It is now a museum as well. Located at the corner of Świętej Anny (St. Ann) and Jagiellońska streets, JU Collegium Maius Museum is the oldest university edifice in Poland. Its history can be traced back to 1400 when King Władysław Jagiełło donated this tenement house to the university. Almost every room in this building has its own legend and is associated with such outstanding personalities as Copernicus, Faust, Twardowski or St. John Cantius.
The Collegium Novum is the "new" university (BTW, new here means the 1800s). It is used daily. The most magnificent building of the Jagiellonian University, the Collegium Novum (The New College) was built in 1883-1887 to the design of Feliks Księżarski. Collegium Novum is an imposing example of neo-Gothic with a fantastically composed, monumental façade of raw brick. Visible over the ogival-arch arcades of the gates are five huge windows of the Assembly Hall spanning two floors. Attention is turned to the keystones of the windows, displayed over which are the multicoloured coats of the arms of the universitys benefactors. Above, in the highest finial, the coat-of-arms of the University – St Stanislaus holding an escutcheon with the Polish Eagle – towers over the entire façade. That university symbol is used only for the most solemn occasions.
The interiors were made equally imposing, with their character making reference to the architecture of Collegium Maius, which included ogival-arch portals, a staircase, and crystalline and star-shaped vaulting over the corridors. The Assembly Hall, with its coffer beam ceiling, is embellished with portraits of the Universitys professors and rectors. It is also the place where Jan Matejkos Astronomer Copernicus or Colloquy with God is displayed. (A copy of that painting hangs in our Chicago living room).
I mostly do not have time to think about the grandeur of the medieval university but you can kind of feel it on the cobblestone streets and these amazing buildings. Mostly, I am just going about my job. But its pretty darn cool to be a visiting Professor at such an institution. I would like to think that my grandfather Juliusz Hetzel (whom I never knew), who knew five languages, who was a Latin teacher and school principal in łodz–who walked to Warsaw in the early 20th century to study at the university– would be proud of his grandaughter, the professor at UJ.

Next up, I made the Royal Icing using powdered sugar, meringue powder, water, almond extract and a heck of a lot of mixing! Somehow, I got wrapped up in the whole process and didn't get a picture of making the icing... or outlining the cookies... Soooo the next step was flooding the cookies with frosting.
Next I mixed up some cute blue icing and tried my hand at decorating the cookies!
They aren't dry yet in this picture, but they're pretty cute, huh? I think I might try again.. and start earlier in the day! Now it's time to sleep. Goodnight everybody!
Update: Here is how they looked after drying. Yum!

During an unexpected moment of clarity Tuesday, open-minded man Blake Richman was suddenly struck by the grim realization that he's squandered a significant portion of his life listening to everyone's bullshit, the 38-year-old told reporters.
A visibly stunned and solemn Richman, who until this point regarded his willingness to hear out the opinions of others as a worthwhile quality, estimated that he's wasted nearly three and a half years of his existence being open to people's half-formed thoughts, asinine suggestions, and pointless, dumbfuck stories.

Lately, I have been reading The Modern Element: Essays on Contemporary Poetry by Adam Kirsch. In one essay, Kirsch describes "artistic talent" as "not a privilege but a responsibility". I don't know why, but this hit me because I don't think artists often think of what they do as a responsibility. As in don't waste our time, or make junk, or think about you are doing. Only adds to the challenge.
I did update the previous post: a view of Spring Street, since I 'revised' the painting.

Newswatch - Scottish Power under pressure
ScottishPower finance director Ian Russell will be fending off questions about the effect of ever-tightening regulation on the utility giant's income as he unveils its preliminary annual results next Thursday (6 May).
As Scotland celebrates its new parliament's first-ever election, analysts will be looking for reassurance that ScottishPower can protect its revenues in the face of efforts by water, gas and electricity regulators to reduce prices for consumers.
Nevertheless, most are predicting the multi-utility company will be delivering profits of around #645m for the period to 31 March 1999. Last year's pre-tax profits were #588m.
Analysts will also be looking for an update on the progress of ScottishPower's impending union with US power provider PacifiCorp. Although both parties are keen to portray it as a merger, ScottishPower has confirmed it would be accounted for as an acquisition by ScottishPower, whose shareholders are expected to end up with 64% of shares in the combined operation.
ScottishPower's management will also dominate the board and the company will retain both its Glasgow headquarters and its primary listing in London. Russell is to remain in his position as deputy chief executive and finance director.
The deal received a boost earlier this month when competition and consumer affairs minister Kim Howells decided not to refer it to competition regulators.
US regulators have yet to approve it, however.
ScottishPower is planning a #500m share buy-back once the deal is completed.

Updating a central configuration
Updating a configuration
To update a configuration after you have made changes to it, open the File menu (FotoStation Pro menu on the Mac), choose Manage configurations, then Upload configuration to server. Locate the FotoStation Logon folder and click OK, then select Update an existing configuration and choose the configuration to update in the dropdown list.
When FotoStation is configured to use a centrally stored configuration, any changes that the user makes to the configuration, such as creating new archives and actions, will not be saved when the user quits the program. Upon a program restart, FotoStation will load the configuration from the server again and any changes the user made during the last session will be gone. This behavior is intended, since it makes it impossible for users to make permanent changes to the centrally stored configuration. A system administrator can restore the original configuration simply by restarting the program.
To update the configuration, either a FotoStation user account has to have "upload configuration on exit" privileges set in the user administration or the configuration has to be updated manually, as described in the above paragraph.
If the network is down, a message will inform the user that the network folder is unavailable FotoStation will use the last good configuration, which has been cached to the local disk.

Italy rebuilds from the ruins of Parmalat
Businesses are having a hard time shaking off Parmalat's legacy, particularly those linked to the troubled group.
Businesses are having a hard time shaking off Parmalat's legacy, particularly those linked to the troubled group.
Link: Move to sue Parmalat in US
Football may be the most popular topic of conversation for Italians, according to a recent survey, but the scandal at Parmalat must surely have been one of the most talked about business upsets to hit the country.
The fall of the house of Calisto Tanzi, the head of the family charged with running Italy's largest dairy foods manufacturer into debts of EUR14.3bn, provoked more media coverage than you could shake a latte macchiato at.
But the fallout from those momentous corporate events has not just been significant for the directors and auditors of what was one of the world's biggest dairy companies. While court battles rage, others have been picking up the pieces and weighing the implications from the fall of Parmalat.
Not everyone believes this was a strictly Italian problem. Peter Poulsen, head of the European Federation for Accountants and Auditors for SMEs (Efaa), urges caution – such alleged management misdeeds could have unfolded anywhere.
'I think the press has been focusing on the wrong aspect,' he says. 'Could it not be that because we've got such effective governance nowadays we see more scandals coming to light? If we go back 50, or even 100 years, people were behaving fraudulently without ever being exposed.'
Fellow Efaa board member, Federico Diomeda, sees no reason to tar all Italian business practices with the same defective brush as Parmalat or Cirio (the Italian canned-foods producer declared bankrupt in August 2003).
'Parmalat was so out of the ordinary,' says the Genova-based accountant. 'The case needs to be put to one side because the rest of the economic fabric works as it has always worked, and those who do business in Italy will continue to do so quite calmly.'
Diomeda points out that, long before there was a whiff of something sour at Parmalat, the Italian government had appointed a commission to examine whether the country's auditing practices needed 'fireproofing' against Enron-type scandals.
Headed by Professor Francesco Galgano, one of the country's leading experts in civil and business law, the group concluded no urgent changes were needed.
Diomeda, who also sits on the international committee of the Milan Association of Accountants (ADCMi), and represents the association at the Efaa, points out that professional guidelines on governance enshrined in Italian law closely follow principles set out in recent EU recommendations.
Furthermore, Italian audit and accountancy bodies are very much involved in the EC's work to develop across-the-zone practices.
'In the near future there will be a common framework of auditing standards in Europe,' he explains. 'This will help single-state members to harmonise procedures. In terms of governance, Italy is probably in the same position as Germany or France.'
That's the big picture stuff. But what about all those subsidiaries of Parmalat who were, in themselves, absolutely clean?
The meltdown at Parmalat demonstrated that a smaller firm, whose parent company is implicated in financial wrongdoings, can also suffer.
Latte Sole, a small dairy cooperative located in Catania, Sicily, was bought by Tanzi in February 2001. The firm was described by Enrico Bond', the man appointed to turn around the fortunes of the Parma-based group, as one of the rare jewels in a rather tarnished Parmalat crown.
But once the trouble burst into the media, some banks refused to maintain credit lines with Latte Sole. The move took the management by surprise. The company never halted production – annual turnover in 2004 is set to reach EUR67m – nor lost any of the 160 employees. The business also managed to hang on to its lead position in the fresh and UHT milk sectors in Sicily. But where consumers might rally round, the banks begged to differ.
'We had very sporadic dealings with the parent company. For example, to set budgets and to communicate monthly turnover. Although we realised that something was wrong (at Parmalat), it was only when the scandal broke there was a direct impact on our finances,' says Latte Sole operations manager Margherita Grillo.
An action was launched in the courts to restore credit lines, but this failed on a technicality. Subsequently, only one national bank has reopened Latte Sole's account. Lawyer Francesca Zangara, whose legal practice represents the company, emphasises that the court cases surrounding Parmalat have no bearing on Latte Sole's affairs.
'The only consequence for Latte Sole is that one day it will be sold off,' says Zangara. 'Bond' has to sell off either the whole group or the firms within Parmalat. Either way the sale will not affect this company – only the ownership will change.'
The legal wrangling over Parmalat may rumble on, but at least Latte Sole shows there's life after scandal.

Happiness on the heels of tragedy...
I've been there. I was touched by the face of evil in my life, causing me great pain and death even. I had no 'control' over it when it came; I had no warning that it was coming; I had no way to protect myself from its 'mission'; I had no reason to believe that evil lurked around the very corner of my life as I sat and ate Sunday brunch with my family. It was the most 'ordinary' of moments in my life. I wasn't "seeking adventure", or "asking for trouble". I hadn't 'enlisted' for anything dangerous; I hadn't any reason to believe that my life could be touched by horror.
Yet it happened.
Just as the victims of the Virginia Tech massacre were 'touched'. Just as others were touched by the DC sniper, just as those individuals we watched who met their fate on the morning of September 11, 2001.
It used to be that we 'saw evil' in more expected places. We had names for these places and people behind them... most people could choose to 'stay away from the bad parts of town', and in so doing, avoid the evil that lurked there. It used to be a choice to 'entertain danger'. People, especially youth, would seek adventure and put them selves at risk of harm and toy with death. What seems to be happening in greater frequency, here in our very own nation, built on freedom and opportunity, is that we are coming face to face with the reality that nobody is really ever protected from death and evil, not even as we go about our so-called everday activities.
Who could have predicted one morning not so long ago, that several young girls would meet their fate in a humble Amish schoolhouse. Or that those at the 'pinnacle of the ladder of success' in their offices on the top floors of the Trade Centers wouldn't stand a chance at surviving it's grip.
Some happened to be out shopping and enjoying the more leaisure side of life one afternoon at a Utah mall, and suddenly there it was- evil and danger and death- without warning or cause.
It is these types of 'random evil and death' that I have contemplated for hours on end in my life; the very evil and senseless violence that claimed my daughter and forever changed the way I see the world.
That is where this post comes from- from the very depths of the questions that my heart has asked and vented about and screamed and shed buckets of tears over. They are not easy questions to ask- the why's and the how come's, and didn't anybody see 'something' so as to avoid this pain and horror. I've asked the hard questions- the ones where you look at yourself wondering where you went wrong to be touched by such evil and randomness; questions of what could I have done differently, and how can I make certain this never happens again. There are intense emotions involved when asking such questions, and out of those feelings I searched for someone to 'blame' for such evil; I needed someone or somewhere to direct my anger and grief and hurt. My pain wanted to point a finger at the "source" or root of evil. Even as authorities retrace steps and try to come up with some sort of 'answers' as to what led to and was behind the rage and randomness of the Virginia Tech massacre, so it was with me in my life. I was reeling with questions and pain.
Herein lies both the "good news and bad news". In my own experience I found that there really weren't any easy answers. Even though in my own situation the cause of my tragedy and Teagan's death had a face and name, there were still questions that had no answer. It was maddening to me at times; I couldn't come to a point where I could say this is why the reality of my life is the way it is or that what happened occured for this reason. Or as a result of this. Or that. For some people these are some of the same questions and pain they feel- only as a result of cancer, or unexplained sudden death from anything- from heart attacks to car accidents. The questions come no matter the source of pain.
What I found was that the more I asked the hard questions, the less the sense it made to me. The more the authorities discovered about the one who brought me such pain, the more questions I had. It seemed to me to make less and less sense, rather than offering solace and relief. I found that the unanswerables started to consume my thoughts and time and in so doing, caused more pain and hurt...it is what started driving a wedge between Chip and me. It is why I would fall apart simply going to the grocery store to pick up a few items- my world didn't make sense...and was bleak as I watched others going about their 'normal lives'. My looked like theirs, but had been tainted by death and evil.
In the segment we taped with Oprah Winfrey, when asked about if I wanted to know why this happened in my life, I answered, "When you ask why too much, it brings you down....there are no answers sometimes".
That's the "bad news". The reality is that sometimes we simply have no answers. It is at this point that often times people start to blame God for what has happened. Others can't understand "why bad stuff happens to good people"...which for me to give you my thoughts on that topic would probably require that I write a short book. It is this very point that many of the victims' family members are finding themselves as they awake to the nightmare of the reality of their lives- many are asking themselves, "now what?" and "where do I go in life from here?" and "why me?".
This is where the "good news" comes in. It is where I had to turn from asking questions and seeking answers, to surrendering myself to the reality of what happened. It meant I had to seek a higher purpose and desire to live in light of heartache, and to accept the fact that there are reasons to the why's and what if's and how comes...I just may never grasp them.
It is where my faith begins and ends- the very definition of faith...when life doesn't make sense, I choose to believe. I do not know why evil and unexpected death happened in my life. I do not understand it. I do not like the way it caught me offguard and in the midst of living a quiet, unassuming life. I do not like that I had no choice in the matter- or that it came at me with such force that nothing mattered to me anymore...life seemed utterly meaningless.
Faith doesn't ask that we like the things that happen to us. Faith doens't mean I can't feel angry or question why. It doesn't mean life will look be perfect. Faith only requires that I believe. I found that with faith, all things really are possible! Even happiness and joy in life, that at one point in time held only pain and sorrow. My faith has been stregthened in my pain and weakness, as I have had to lean on God and in Him alone find comfort and peace. In God's Word, I am promised comfort in times of grief; I am offered Hope for the future; I simply have to trust that God IS true to His word. He is showing me that I do not need to fear the random evil and pain that touches all of us in this world- we all face certain death. We need not live in fear- no matter how or when it may cross our paths. We can live with the assurance that God's promises are true; that His ways "are higher than ours" and that "He will make all things new". Therein lies the reality that we can all live with happiness and with peace. God is most certainly in control. We may not understand His ways, or His timing...but that is just the way things are in life. It is not ours to know. How silly to think that we could or even should be able to make sense of things of this world...we are not God.
I think of a recent illustration I heard on this very subject. If you are a parent this is more easily understood, as it is a picture of God as our Father- all-knowing, all-loving and all-powerful. As in our own lives, sometimes 'bad things' happen to our children. Sometimes they just happen (think about getting the flu, or falling off of a bike and getting hurt); we do not cause them. Sometimes we bring them on our children "for their own good"- think of immunizations or "making kids eat their vegetables". They may not like that we cause "suffering", but from our perspective, we are doing certain things or allowing certain things for their very good- out of our deep love for them.
So, even though we could tell them they are getting shots to prevent disease and sickness and undue pain in their lives, children can't understand and process that. Even though they fall off their bikes, we allow them to do so, in order that they might grow and learn and experience the thrill of riding a bike without harm later on. Although we didn't 'sign them up for the flu, or bring it upon them', it happens from time to time simply because there is good and evil in this world. It has been that way from the beginning of time. So it is with us and faith. We can choose to believe that God is who He claims to be. We will never fully know the mind of God, and it is not ours to know. BUT, we can trust Him to be faithful and true.
That is what I have done in my life. I hope that people who are wacthing such events as all the random tragedies in just the past few months in and around our own nation, don't point fingers at God, or fall away from their faith as a result of evil. But instead, use it as an opportunity to cling to God, to seek His face, to grow their faith, and to find that there is so much more to life than simply going about our day to day routine. There is Hope for eternity, and life is our journey toward that end.

Just getting ready for "lunch break" and I wanted to thank you for the good input in last night's "Why Bloggers Blog" Part III-A post.
Then I read this insightful post on the news of the week. You're right. Making sense out of senseless acts is beyond us, but maintaining our sensibility, with God's help, is within reach. You and Chip and your dear family are proof.
Trenton loves that song. It is so amazing to here a little two year old sing, "Lord you never let go of ME!"

My family is there, my friends, my coworkers, my classmates. We don't know why God brought us to Gaylord Michigan. Why we left the comfort and proximity of family and friends to start a new life in small town Michigan. I trust God has planned it all. All I can do is trust in God's design.
Out of all of the connections we have to the University we lost- No family, no friends, no classmates. Our list includes one man, a professor that my husband had never met- but had a connection to his work. I THANK and PRAISE God. In all honesty if this had been in the same building on Tuesday- I wouldn't be able to say I hadn't lost classmates. If he had gone in the building next door- where my office was- I would have lost coworkers and family. I know there is hurt for the families that have lost loved ones. but there is praise for those who have not. There are many students who are professed Christians on the list- and I pray each day that their families would hold onto that faith and other people would be ignited for Christ through this. I'm sorry to to "blog" on you- you're writing is an inspiration. Thank you.
i'm trying to refer to your past posts re; 'joy', and when i click on 'joy', nothing happens.
can you help me?

Hi Jody,
I've really been enjoying reading your blog in the last week or so. Thank you for sharing your honest thoughts with us. I really appreciate your perspective and the truth which flows from your mind and your heart. I emailed you last week and I hope you got it! :) You're an inspiration.
Blessings to you,

I am fairly new in the blog world. I clicked on to your blog from Adreienne's blog. I know nothing about the scrapbooking community although I am an artist. I layed awake during nap time today thinking about your "scrapping dare" thread. I have a Teagan and a Brock.... Zoe, age 2 and Henry, 6 months. I am a spirit filled christian and am struggling with some post partum depression. I have always wanted at least 4 kids, yet am overwhelmed with physical exhaustion right now. I constantly think about what I would do if something happened to one of my kids. Your blog has taught me that I am not in control and I ultimately have to lay my children at the Lord's feet and trust Him. I have also witnessed the Lord using the death of a child in your life and others to strengthen and refine and press the wine of "pure joy" out of the grapes of tragedy. This gives me comfort and strength to trust. I guess I wanted to make a comment on the "not so anonymous" people who criticized you on that thread. You need encouragement and support from your community and family. I feel the "Jody focused" comments are very immature. Clearly, those people must be greiving the loss of Teagan, too, but they've got it all wrong. Teagan needs no sympathy, she is dancing with her king. You are the one still here on earth working out your salvation and healing with fear and trembling. Be encouraged and strengthened. Anonymous: Please realize that words have power to build up or tear down. Don't tear Jody down for the victories she has had in learning from her tragedy. We must build up, pray, encourage, and love.
It is nice to see that someone actually cares about the things going on in the world today!
I for one, can't seem to find out why deep down things like this don't bother me. Perhaps it is because they don't affect me directly.
Perhaps it is also because I feel that if something like that also happened to me, no one would give a flying fig (please pardon the expression) about poor old MrsT.
Oh well. Your blog is sweet, just like whipped cream straight outta the can!

A favorite song of mine as well, and it sums up how grateful I am for a God who is there despite the evil around us. Your blog is inspiring, encouraging and profound. Thanks for your bold witness!

Discovering a new Catholic blog
I discovered a new blog today, kept by a young man named Nathaniel, who, it seems, could really use our prayers these days.
He is a Catholic
conscientious objector
Army Ranger
who's a student at West Point.
See what I mean about praying?
Yesterday he blogged:
Again, God proves to me that the obstacles I forsee are the ones he has already taken care of. The flip side to it, the one that keeps me from celebrating, is knowing that he has also laid out for me his hidden disciplines. Through such assured future suffering, I have a golden opportunity to come closer to Him.
What a miracle life is!
It is reminiscent to me of a lot of deserter and conscientious objector Catholic saints all the way back to St. Maximilian the Great Martyr.
Another Catholic conscientious objector, the martyr Franz Jagerstatter, wrote to his wife and daughters not long before his execution:
Through His bitter suffering and death, Christ freed us only from eternal death, not from temporal suffering and mortal death. But Christ, too, demands a public confession of our faith, just as the Fuhrer, Adolf Hitler does from his followers. ...... I am convinced that it is still best that I speak the truth, even if it costs me my life....... I cannot and may not take an oath in favor of a government that is fighting an unjust war. ..... I thank my dear Jesus, too, that I am privileged to suffer and even die for Him ..... the heart of Jesus, the heart of Mary, and my own heart are one, united for time and eternity. Mary with Child so dear, give us all your blessings!
So, stop sometime today and pray for Nathaniel, and any other of our brothers and sisters who may be in a similar situation. And pay his blog "Eclipsoul" a visit or three, it looks like it will become quite fruitful.

The last time I went apple picking I took this photo of N.
She was about 2-and-a-half years old then.
A year or so after this picture was taken, G was a newborn. So no apple-picking.
A year after that, G was only a year old. So no apple-picking.
A year after that, M was "this" close to being here. No apple-picking.
Last year, M was a year old. Repeat the refrain.
(I have to admit that my MIL has a small apple tree in her backyard, and in the past 5 years when I wasn't 9 months pregnant AND when the tree produced fruit, I did climb up the ladder and get enough apples to make a pie.)
This year I was determined to go apple-picking, mostly to try to get a sweet photo of G picking apples.
Because there are few things as sweet as a child picking fruit.
Walking to the orchard.
I especially like the one on the right because he almost looks like he's off the ground (and it would be just like him to swing from the apple tree while picking.)
Now to sample them.
Little brother had fun at the orchard too.
One gets thirsty when apple-picking in sticky high 90 degree weather.
(G took this photo of me nursing M. He also took quite a few shots of his new shoes.)
The spoils. (Another G photo.)

Climb out of the playpen
Perhaps I'm asking too much, but I always like to have some sort of positive idea of what a Budget is about
Perhaps I'm asking too much, but I always like to have some sort of positive idea of what a Budget is about
Last week's 'swansong' Budget, as someone called it, seemed to have no
guiding principle other than cynical political tinkering.
Corporate tax went down, except it didn't really because the allowances
changed. That might stop accounting firms from putting out press releases saying
the UK's tax rate is higher than other comparable countries, but it won't mean
people move here for tax reasons. The decisions on tax competitiveness have
(rightly, I happen to think) been ducked.
There were a host of other changes, but little, apart from the Manninen
moves, on the complex international tax issues that caused a fuss at pre-Budget
report time.
But the personal tax changes were most perplexing, and actually quite
Gordon dropped the basic tax rate by 2p, probably good for most Accountancy
Age readers. And he paid for it by getting rid of the 10% band, something that
most of you won't especially worry about, either. Since its major impact is to
hit people earning less than £17,000.
But it's something that Gordon should worry about. Or rather, it's something
that he claims to worry about.
The chancellor is the kind of politician who says that politics is about
ideas, about changing the world for the better, and not about personalities or
childish politicking. But his Budget is exactly what that is about. It is a
regressive budget from the most moralistically progressive politician we have.
The Tories copped some flak for their response to the Budget. But the
suggestion that this was not a tax cut but a tax con is spot on. More than that,
it was cynical and hypocritical. Can't we expect more from politicians?

Do you hear that?
It's the Quiet of the Tween Season. The quiet that comes from the next season not completely committed to appearing and the last vestige of the previous season begging to stay on.
It's the craziness of picking a huge collection of Lily of the Valley in the cold rain, gathering my now blooming Korean Lilac, bringing them into a cool house (we turned the heat off last week) and awaiting their perfume to permeate the rooms they're placed in.
And now, starting a fire in the not-yet-cleaned out fireplace. (Last year's last fire was in May)
Soon the wood smoke will mingle with the freshness of my favorite flowers and I am at peace.
The absurdness of this kind of day, makes it seem like a vacation to me; a vacation in a familiar but oddly askew land. Eager to understand it, but more eager to take advantage of the overlap.
The warmth of a hearth fire with the ambrosia scent of fresh flowers, newly picked.
Knowing the porch is ready, but the season is not. Knowing the garden is producing blossoms as well as an abundant of weeds but as for today, I am excused from attending the gardens burgeoning needs by the cold and the wet plants.
So what to do?
Another pleasure.
Sewing a re purposing task for the 2G's mama. A well loved but outdated skirt becoming a gifted apron. Another overlap. Another glee.
Further along in the day, when I am tired from all this gleeful overlap, I shall retire to my fireplace with my newest book, ' Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy by Eric Metaxas. Hot off the press.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer; a kindred spirit of mine....An overlapper of sorts. See?
After the misty rain calms down a bit, I'll take the two beloved doggies for a walk, enjoying the damp cold, knowing that my Warm Fire of the Overlap awaits me....
The Tween Season; embrace it.....

This month's Gastroenterology evaluated serum levels of tryptophan and its metabolites in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases.
Administration of tryptophan and some of its metabolites reduces the severity of colitis in mice, whereas removing tryptophan from the diet increases susceptibility to colitis.
Transfer of the intestinal microbiome transfers the colitogenic phenotype from tryptophan starved animals to normally nourished mice.
Dr Stefan Schreiber and colleagues from Germany systematically evaluated serum levels of tryptophan and its metabolites in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), and studied their association with clinical and serologic features.
The team studied 535 consecutive patients with IBD, enrolled in Germany from 2013 through 2014 and followed until 2016.
Serum samples were collected from patients and 291 matched individuals without IBD (controls); levels of tryptophan were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography.
Metabolites of tryptophan were measured in serum from 148 patients, and 100 controls by mass spectrometry. We measured levels of interleukin 22 in serum from 28 patients by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
Paired stool and serum samples were collected from a subset of patients with active UC or CD to investigate associations between serum levels of tryptophan and composition of the fecal microbiota, analyzed by 16S ribosomal DNA amplicon sequencing.
The research team used real-time polymerase chain reaction to measure levels of messenger RNAs in colonic biopsies from 60 patients with UC, 50 with CD, and 30 controls.
The team collected information on patients disease activity scores, medications, laboratory assessments, and clinical examinations during recruitment and follow-up visits.
Serum levels of tryptophan were significantly lower in patients with IBD than in controls with a stronger reduction in patients with CD than UC.
The researchers found a negative correlation between serum levels of tryptophan and disease activity or levels of C-reactive protein.
Levels of messenger RNAs encoding tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase-2 and solute carrier family 6 member 19 (also called B0AT1) were significantly decreased in colonic biopsies from patients with IBD compared with controls, whereas level of messenger RNA encoding indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 was significantly increased.
The researchers found that the composition of the fecal microbiota associated with serum levels of tryptophan.
Analysis of tryptophan metabolites revealed activation of the kynurenine pathway, based on high levels of quinolinic acid, in patients with IBD compared with controls.
Serum concentration of interleukin 22 associated with disease activity in patients with IBD.
The research team observed an inverse association between levels of interleukin 22, and serum levels of tryptophan.
Dr Schreiber's team concludes, "In an analysis of serum samples from more than 500 patients with IBD, we observed a negative correlation between serum levels of tryptophan and disease activity."
"Increased levels of tryptophan metabolitesespecially of quinolinic acidindicated a high activity of tryptophan degradation in patients with active IBD."
"Tryptophan deficiency could contribute to development of IBD or aggravate disease activity."
"Interventional clinical studies are needed to determine whether modification of intestinal tryptophan pathways affects the severity of IBD."
