I woke up this morning with a lot of positive energy. Then I spent the last 30 minutes sobbing through the end of Paper Butterflies by Lisa Heathfield.

Don’t pet the sweaty stuff
At the end of 2014 I did what a lot of bloggers do these days and I chose a word for the upcoming year. My word for 2015 was soften. I wanted to be a softer person in all aspects of my life - in my classroom, in my home, and in my relationships with … Continue reading Don’t pet the sweaty stuff

A couple reminders and a few FYIs
A few FYIs: I'm really good at Just Dance 3 for the Wii. I'm also just kinda sore from all of those five stars performances I performed yesterday during our day off. I genuinely enjoy cooking.
