Once upon a time there was a family who lost their dog. And they were sad. And then one day they found a new puppy to love. Meet Millie.

The time has come to break up with Apple Maps. I'm so disappointed. Not surprised, but disappointed.

This shall be my new default text. I have survived another week. The horrors persist.

I cast on these socks a week ago and now I'm at my favorite part - turning the heel. Yarn: Must Stash Yarn Colorway: The Mothman

Good: Allergy shots have made it so I don't need daily meds anymore. Bad: I forgot to take my allergy meds before getting my shot. (My allergist hooked me up with some Zyrtec though so we're good.)

What are your go-to comfort movies? I feel like I might need some more options to get through the next few years.

It’s here, it’s here, it’s here!!!!

People should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of their people.

This is not ok. I just …. have no words.

Christmas vacation is over and today was my first day back teaching. So many of my kids told me how happy they were to be back in my class. It’s the best compliment a teacher can get.

It took me 46 years, but I bought my first pair of Converse this weekend.

102 years ago today, Frederick Banting and Charles Best injected a 14 year old boy dying of diabetic ketoacidosis with pancreatic extract from a dog. Within 24 hours, his blood sugar was almost normal. Six years ago this month, my son became Type I diabetic. He is alive today thanks to them.

“We told the truth, we obeyed the law, and we kept the peace.” - Walter Mondale Such simple words with such profound meaning.

It’s my favorite sort of day today - it’s cold, it’s rainy, and since classes start next week I don’t have to go anywhere today. I plan to spend the day with a good book and a nice cup of tea.
