Our math department puts out a survey to all students at the beginning of the year and this morning they are going over their Mathematical Autobiography sheets together as a team. The laughter sucked me right in so I joined them to read through the answers. The questions are benign enough, but it gives them [...]
I’m still getting into the swing of things for school and getting coffee prior to arriving at school is my newest routine. It wasn’t in my plans to order something that delectable, but I couldn’t decide and my eye caught the White Chocolate Mocha at Starbucks. Sometimes, I am smarter for my flash-in-the-pan decisions. Because [...]
Mallory did the normal things that little kids do when trying to pronounce words when she was very small. “Wookit me!” “Wisten da me!” But it was when she was trying to learn to pronounce her own name that she really threw me off. Surprisingly, it didn’t take me long to figure out that she [...]
I’m not making coffee today. Today, I’m going to get back into my routine of buying it. Here’s the plan: go to my favorite mom-and-pop drive-through and get an iced mocha. That’s the plan. You know what happens with plans, right?
It was just about this time last year when I started to write on a blog. Looking back, it appears that I’ve done some growing and learning and yet, I have far to go it seems. Last year I felt so unprepared for school and didn’t want to even begin to think about the work [...]
Officially, school starts tomorrow, but I had to report for work last Friday. Today, I made a pot of Sumatra from a fresh bag of Starbucks Coffee. It was on purpose that I didn’t add any cream or Splenda because I didn’t leave any room in my cuppa for it. I need all the remains [...]
It’s not uncommon for me to start going into school way before I’m required to, but the nice thing is that there are many other teachers who are there working on their rooms and getting things ready for the students. Misery loves company. It is, however, uncommon for me to go in on a Saturday and [...]
Just yesterday it seemed that I found out I was having a baby girl, but it’s been much longer than that. It’s been over twenty years since the person who has lived with me the longest in my life came to me. It was just us. For a long time, it seemed, but it was [...]
Not only am I having some french roasted coffee, but I am making in my french press. Everything french today – it’s strong and sturdy in flavor, but was too hot so I added enough milk to nearly make it an iced coffee. How do you say “yummy” in French?
It’s not above me to poke fun at other people for my own entertaining purposes, but I feel a qualifier is in order before proceeding: I make more fun of myself than others do. Ummm…hello? Yesterday I wrote about a pig farting on me. Why would any reasonable person admit that? My geekiness is well [...]
