It’s that time of year where teaching feels like working double shifts because you teach all day then do paperwork, report cards and IEPs all night while helping your own children do math with rational numbers, pie, co-signs and “shift” (whatever that is) When is it time for wine?🍷

This is not good. I will continue to advocate for myself, my family and my students for whom even small learning disruptions like being sick and missing school set them back.

Please tell me we can find the DNA clownfish use to do this so I too can shrink my body to a smaller stature for the heat* of summer and need less food. 😂 *by heat I mean fit into shorts and a bathing suit after gaining my annual winter hibernation weight

Picking Hawai’i for the vacation destination for my 20th anniversary was well worth the expense. Amazing trip! Highly recommend the Guide Along app for driving tours of the island- well worth the price as we found many hidden treasures we wouldn’t have found otherwise.

Teacher appreciation week…not going to lie, feeling pretty down. I don’t want a keychain for “being a key player” or my board members out with “vote no” signs against our bond. I would feel appreciated if I could use my hard earned PTO that is part of my benefit package, but no, that was denied.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

Got a long overdue haircut today- cut 4”, added layers and thinned it. Feels springy!

Parents please know… Autism is not a disease. Your child belongs. Your child is not unworthy. RFK is not correct. Autism is complex, under study via medical, social and educational lenses. Your children make our classrooms and world better places.

Feeling springy- picked up some flowers and made a little lemon bread for dessert later.
