I am now, after more than 5 decades in the work force, officially semi-retired. New hobby: gardening. Old hobby restarting: table tennis. I still have some classes to teach and materials to design, many of which I will continue to share with the dear members of ESLPs. You may come across my materials on Facebook and my blog.

Others: sheep-sheep, foot-feet, child-children, tooth-teeth, ox-oxen, man-men, mouse-mice, elf-elves, goose-geese, woman-women, wo...
