It is all in a day…a writing day.
My summer goals on writing each week have not been successful. My mother's husband had surgery and he is my mother's caretaker. She is in the last and final stage of Alzheimer's. This is perhaps the worst stage yet. It could last months or it could last years. With my stepfather's recovery, my sisters and... Continue Reading →

As a special education teacher, my patience is tested throughout the year as I help students deal with their emotions, academic struggles, and just getting through the day.

I prefer to hold a book in my hands. A real book. Maybe that is because I am 40 years old and grew up without the choice of a "real" book or an electronic version. I grew up in a rural county without a computer in the house and where we could not have cable... Continue Reading →

However, the thought of leaving "my kids" is heartbreaking. I call them "my kids" not because they are "sped" but because during those 9-10 months of school I spend so... Continue Reading →
Many people do not realize that although we all have different learning styles, we also have different views of experiencing our every day world. Ten years ago, I learned that I think differently than ANYONE I know; I see subtitles for everything...EVERYTHING. When I speak and when anyone else speaks, I see the words in... Continue Reading →

Every January, Goodreads asks about a reading goal. Every January, I type in my book number and start a list of books to read. Today, I looked back at the books from 2015 and realized that (1) I didn't read enough books and (2) I forgot to put some books on Goodreads, but I still... Continue Reading →
Today seems like the perfect reading day. I love a day where it is a little chilly out. Then I curl up on the couch and read a book (even if it is just during my son's naptime). So if you have just an hour like sometimes I do, go read one of my books.... Continue Reading →
