10. Emotionally manipulative people who use passive aggression as their coping mechanisms. 9. Thirteen year olds who roll their eyes at me when they don’t like me disciplining them. I know it’s disrespectful and that it’s the only power they feel like they can wield over me, but it’s laughable when a kid is mad [...]
It’s funny that the song stuck in my head these days is by Joss Stone because the first song I posted in this new category of mine is from her boyfriend, Raphael Saadiq. I love her old sounding voice. It’s deep and throaty and there’s no way a girl this young should understand the lyrics [...]
In May I received a letter at work from a former student of mine from when I worked at a high school previous to my current job. Kayse was a freshman when I started working with her and I spent three years total doing that. During her senior year I left to work at a [...]
Every year at the end of July I take a weekend trip with a group of friends. We started doing this after teaching together at the same school and then, one by one, we drifted off to different pastures. I went to a different school and so did a few others. Some of our group [...]

I have three browsers that I use because some work better than others depending on what I’m working on for both work and professional use. To say Pinterest is addictive is an [...]
There’s no order to the comments and responses that I’m writing because I tried doing them in order and that didn’t work. At first I would copy and paste and then try to answer them in order but that didn’t work, either. For example, I have already addressed Stacey’s comment in Part I, but I [...]
I have long since had a crush on Raphael Saadiq ever since the days of Tony! Toni! Tone! But this song keeps surprising me this week. It’s Motown-y and 50′s bubblegum pop and skipping down the street while popping your fingers all rolled into one. Be bop around to this song. Movin’ Down the [...]
Recently, I had the opportunity to meet with the people at MinuteClinic to learn about their walk-in medical clinics. Theyโre located inside select CVS/pharmacy stores. After meeting with them, I was compensated to participate in a video and to write this post to share what I learned with my readers. The meeting included me [...]
My friend, Krista, has the most beautiful bubble chandelier in her home right above her kitchen table. The yellow walls and bubbles make for a happy home.
Recently, I have made mention of the fact that my email has never been more flooded with personal messages than when I posted twice on racial issues. Make that twice in one week. There are too many to count. In fact, I don’t have a count, but I am saving them for when I can [...]
