The end of an era, a bit of acceptance, and a new beginning.
March 23, 2023 This past weekend I finally removed the remnant pieces of my once-amazing classroom.

Poppies in Italy
I took this picture in either 2013 or 2016 while touring Italy. I have been fortunate to travel to this beautiful country multiple times with students and it never fails to excite me.

3 things on a rainy day in December
December 11, 2022 The rain just keeps coming. It’s a slow soaking which I know our ground needs but our spirits have had enough of it.

November 3, 3 things.
I am so grateful for open and honest conversations. Communication makes or breaks any relationship. Clarity; I am grateful that my surgery went very well yesterday (outpatient- nothing major).
