Just a ramble

I was looking through some old entries to find the date of an event I knew I had written about. I never go back and read old entries, but this was about 2 years ago and I found myself strolling d...

Oops

For weeks my parents have been telling me that they wanted to come help me work in my yard. I put them off as long as I could. They both have health issues and with their age, it just bothers me ...

A Summer Day

It just hit me that my summer break is officially pretty much halfway over. It’s hard to believe that. I’ve hit my summer stride. I can’t keep up with what day of the week it is and my sleeping p...

Well that was a dud

I’ve gotten some wind and rain, but Cindy came in a little further east than they originally thought. That put most of central Louisiana (where I am) the window of being far enough away to miss ...

And so it starts

We’re just a few weeks on to hurricane season and we’re already preparing for a storm. It’s not organized enough to be a tropical storm or hurricane, but it’s packing a lot of wind and rain, We’...

Sad Good-bye

Bear, the sweet little tri-pod pup that adopted my parents has vanished. Before we left for our trip, my parents noticed him acting a little differently, not eating as much, coughing some. I’ve s...

Hello? Can You Hear Me?

I’ve been without Wi-Fi for a week. I thought it was just the weather, but it’s not. I tried to get them to come out yesterday, but they couldn’t. I’m going to be out of town for a few days with...

Mower Therapy

I had some mowing time today. I didn’t get it done, but it always just makes me feel better. I had an “incident” with the charger for my mower battery a few weeks ago. I’m honestly not sure what ...

We made it!

Technically school is officially over today. I’m not done, I’ll be going up next week to finish getting my room packed up. I should have had time to finish, but technology stuff popped up. I spen...

Sunday night musings

The school year is rapidly winding to a close, and I’m amazed. It seems like we just celebrated Christmas, and suddenly I’m down to just 13 short days with my kids. It’s been a year of turmoil an...


When I sit with this page open for 10 minutes, trying to think of a title, and find myself playing on my phone instead - that’s a issue. lol An update on my troubled child. We have been told the ...

There were bells ringning

And not in my head! lol I went up and worked at school today. I went up last weekend, too, but that was to work on computer stuff. Today was about my room, and trying to get some organization hap...

Cruising along

First, an update on my student - the 22 year old who hit her has moved out, the sex offender hasn’t. The police are still visiting and “some lady” that asked a lot of questions (I’m guessing DCFS...


The morning started rough. I was frustrated over some mundane technology issues that had to be addressed for testing. My frustration was more about the non-communication that’s going on. I got it...


I’m sitting on my bathroom floor listening to hail beat on my roof. I’m under a tornado warning, with one sited near here. The cat are in here against their will. Luna freaked out at the hail. St...


I hate trying to come up with a title for these entries. I’m sitting here waiting on the weather to hit. We have a thunderstorm warning and I’m just starting to hear some thunder. I don’t know ho...

For Jigger

Here’s some pics of the incubator. Luckily enough the eggs came from our librarian, who will get any chicks that make it. She lives about 2 minutes from the school, so she’ll be turning our eggs ...

Yet again...

I’m behind. I swear, I don’t know how I end up so far behind. Life has been very busy lately, and this time change is kicking my butt. It always does. Sleep and I aren’t the best of friends, and ...

Where has the time gone?

It seems like I turn around and weeks have gone by. I hate that. Things here have been fine. School continues. I’m settling into the new grade. Morale at school has taken a hit. Our numbers kee...

Life goes on

Sometimes it’s just hard to come up with a title, lol. Things are going fine here. Apparently we had some bad weather last night. I slept through it, so I have no idea how bad it got. I haven’t...

My cat has lost her mind

lol I seem to say that a lot. Lu has been sleeping away and suddenly jumped up and she’s off. She has attacked my shoe and sock, chased some invisible critter into the door, and is now harassing ...


Book Description

I’ve been on OD for 12 or 13 years (or longer). I don’t want to jump ship, but I don’t want to lose my friends, either. This place is no OD, but it’s a safe spot at least.
