Hi! It’s been awhile..I’m sure all 3 of you missed me (Hi mom)…haha! Anyway, things have finally got back to semi-normal around our house. Zack never really stopped working. I finally am back to school, although we are 100% virtual for now; it’s nice to have a routine again. Being a teacher during this timeContinue reading “What is Grace?”

The COVID Teacher Train Wreck
You know that I’m a teacher. You also know that the world is turned upside down with COVID, and the Black Lives Matter movement. What you don’t know is what all of this is doing to the state of public education. Frankly, I don’t think I know the full extent of the impact the stateContinue reading “The COVID Teacher Train Wreck”
What’s Your Occupation?
The first question people usually ask me: “so what do you do?” It’s an effort to get to know who someone is, what they’re about, how their life works. Nothing wrong there!

This is a post about the huge, hidden present we are all receiving. Don’t getContinue reading “Once Upon a Time, Quarantine Made Us Better”
Sponsored Life

Nike gifted a bunch of CrossFitters a whole bunch of new gear. The influencers were opening packages of makeup, juices, and clothes from brands that want to do a partnership with them. I wasContinue reading “Sponsored Life”
Yes, I’m a (PE) Teacher.
I’m not a recess supervisor. I am not a babysitter during your prep time. I’m not support staff. I have a degree in education. I also have a master’s in education. The gym is my classroom. I am not responsible for running your students because they are out of control. Frankly, it’s insulting when youContinue reading “Yes, I’m a (PE) Teacher.”
