About Me

I love reading, teaching and cooking. I exercise so I can eat. (Losing weight would be a bonus.) I've been a special education teacher for 32 years and I really like it. I also enjoy traveling but I think I plan more that I actually travel.

When the cat's away the mice will play.

Being away from work for just one day is so much work!(at least for a teacher, or this teacher). First you have to prepare to be absent with lesson plans that make sense to someone who just walks in with no knowledge of your class or students. Then when you get back, you have to sift thru what happened while you were gone. And now I'm going to be out again tomorrow for a workshop...sigh.

Before I forget...

So I thought of something the other day related to the Happiness Project and me, and now, of course I have forgotten it. I remember thinking that it was something like my own personal commandment or my own Splendid Truth, but like so many great thoughts it has dissipated into thin air - poof! Maybe someday I will learn to write things down when I think of them. Or better yet maybe I will stumble into a cloud of all my great thoughts:).
