I wish I could say that my new obsession is some great new product or some great new workout, although, I think I would really like to have one of these (so if you have one of these, I want to hear about it), but it is not. I have always known about this little [...]
We moved from an area in Texas that was a the pilot area for the most advanced tv/cable/internet in the country. Fios. Underground superfast, supercool cable. The video on demand section was particularly super. In seconds I could have any of our favorite Noggin friends entertaining the Missy when I needed to make a phone [...]
The first week of school is kicking my ass. I had a plan of what to rant about tonight but just can’t. I eyelids are closing as we speak. I have been flying solo for most of the week and it’s the first week of school. Maybe I will rant tomorrow.
Turns out that one day your child asks the deep thinking questions that clearly have you thinking she is the next Plato and the next day you spend the 20 minute ride home answering why you didn’t eat lunch with her today and why didn’t Daddy come for lunch. Here is a both a pro [...]
Here is the question that I have been asked over and over today by Missy Mack:
When you were a little girl where was I?
Unacceptable answers:
Mommy and Daddy didn’t know each other so there couldn’t be a you yet.
You were waiting for Mommy to grow up.
I wasn’t big enough to be a Mommy yet.
I don’t know.
You [...]
This has been a week of milestones. Right now I want to say that my feet hurt so so badly that I never want to walk or stand again. Ouch!
Back to the milestones.

My sweet Missy Mack started Pre-K this week and has loved every moment of it. She is sad that tomorrow is Saturday and [...]
I am going to take a break from the rant this week because I witness something that blew me away and I am worried if I don’t get it down, it will escape my brain.
This morning I went to what is called convocation. This is an event in the teaching world. The entire district gathers [...]
I brought my camera to my classroom today and took some pictures. Hopefully, at some point I will get to work in my room. I went there Saturday and sweated like a pig. I wasn’t aware that the air would not be on and that I would not have the power to turn some air [...]
I need this documented so I don’t forget this day. Today was the first time for me to work in my ‘new’ classroom. The school is like 30 years old or something and the teacher’s whose room I am now living was there for 25 years. 25 years and she NEVER-THREW-ANYTHING-AWAY-AND -LEFT-IT-ALL-BEHIND. This former teacher [...]
Today I will be ranting about radio commercials. While, it seems that I time my car rides at just the time the commercials begin and I reach my destination it is time for the music, this is not what my rant is about.
On my way to work this morning, the commercial that caught my attention [...]
