For a reason, for a season

There is a saying (yet another!) about people coming into each other's life for a season, for a reason, or.... can't remember the third part! Today I am missing my ex-colleague, who moved to Dubai a month ago. My daily experiences at school, in the nineteen months we worked together, were usually punctuated and spiced up by witty comments from him. I was amused/delighted to hear, recently, that he'd told someone, "I like Trudy - she's also a Word Nerd!". (Broad, freckled grin!)

So, Mr. Juan, I see you've now become a 'Follower' of my blog. Someone told me she's been trying to become a Follower, but keeps hitting obstacles when she tries. If you can, please let me know if this is complicated or not. Maybe I should just try becoming an official 'Follower' of someone else's. I started blogging in June, this year, and I have TWO Followers!!!! It's a good thing I have a healthy self-esteem!

So, to my brilliant, very witty friend on the other side of the world, I REALLY REALLY miss you! And yes, the students still call me Mr. Trudy!
