One teacher's blog sharing about life, in and outside the classroom.
No matter what is happening in world, there are always going to be times that you wish you could make time go faster. Currently, we’re still living through a global pandemic (and with a young baby, we avoid going out as much as possible!) so I have to find ways to pass time at home. […]
Hello everyone! It’s been about a little over a year – and what a year right? We’ve been living through a global pandemic! I know for me, it’s been a wild year as well. I’ve gone through lots of changes in this past year, on top of living through the pandemic with you all. Some […]
This spring break was a little different this year with the quarantine and pandemic. For me, school has been closed since March 13th, but our spring break was the first week of April. So I will just reflect on what we completed during that week. I posted about what you can do during spring breaks, […]
During my first year of teaching, I looked at where I was in my career and decided to go for my Masters. In one year, I got my Masters with a 4.0 grade point average. It was hard, but I’ve found some tips that helped myself and my husband get our Masters while teaching full […]

There’s a lot of confusion and fear right now, and as a teacher, I have quite a few thoughts about the school closures and COVID-19 that I wanted to share. Fear for […]
When I first began focusing on my finances to become fiscally responsible, budgeting was something that I just did not get. Yeah, I tracked where my money went, but I wasn’t telling it where to go. It just would go to my bills, and then my food, and my car, and next thing I would […]
Over our winter break, B and I completely renovated our bathroom. It was a PROJECT. We replaced everything, but the tub and toilet. However, now our bathroom is so nice and I’m in love. But when it comes to renovating rooms, not everyone can do it themselves or pay to replace everything. For our bathroom, […]
When spring break finally arrives, it’s hard to figure out what we teachers are going to do with that time! So why not make a list, whether you’re just starting spring break, or yours begins in April, start making a plan so you can look back and feel it was time well spent! House project […]
