It’s a Woman Thing
Talk About it Tuesday I had this random memory the other day. It made me giggle to think about it. When it happened three-ish years ago, Josh couldn’t believe I had done what I did. He didn’t see the humor in it. Maybe because he’s not a woman. Here’s what happened… Picture it. Early morning.… →

In the Blink of a Year (part 1–the “before”)
Given today’s prompt about habits that bring you joy, here’s another one that I thought of. I really enjoy scrolling through the pictures on my phone. I take a lot of pictures and screenshots of things that I like, or speak to me in some way. I have pictures on my phone going back to… →

The Finale
So here’s the thing…exactly one year ago I wore this shirt on my last day of work at my old job. My official last day was June 30th, the end of my contract, but the 27th was a Thursday and the last scheduled day according to our summer office hours schedule. I wore this shirt… →

Independence Day
And talk about it I am. It’s getting close to March 28th. On that date one year ago, I was on the receiving end of a phone call that honestly changed my life. I only remember the specific date because it was on Holy Thursday. The day that my school got out for Easter break.… →

The Anxiety of Leadership
What makes a good leader? Don’t ask me this question! As someone who was the leader of a school, and mentored by the previous leader of the same school who I worked under for 16 or so years before that, I can give you 101 things that do NOT make a good leader and they… →

Purchasing My Future
If I’m restricted to an actual physical item that was the most expensive I’ve ever purchased, it’s actually hard to answer. I’ve bought things that are several hundred dollars for either myself or my husband. None of them are really memorable though. I can’t even tell what the most expensive was. Maybe the PlayStation 4… →
