    I even drew a picture to go with… This was just my morning purge. I actually had a couple of decent work hours before my supervisor shared some really disturbing news with me. Apparently, my so called leaders in administration have no problem with adding more burden to the shoulders of those already dealing with…

  • Just another day

    It’s been a rough patch of life. Lots of ups and downs. At least the ups have been really good. Reconnecting with an old friend good. The kind of friend that might bring over bagels on a Sunday morning because she was in the neighborhood. Back when I used to eat bagels. And instead of…

    After a horrible morning yesterday of trying to get out of the door with my son in a reasonable amount of time – not late for work – I chose to start today by giving myself more. I hit the snooze button and laid in bed for an extra ten minutes. I wish I could…

  • The gift of no power

    This morning was a gift wrapped in cold – a bubble of protection brought by power line work in the neighborhood. I believe it is important to have access to information – which is what drew me to field of work. And I believe it is important to protect each other. When others don’t believe…

    She was sitting in a stroller being pushed by a woman who insisted she was a service animal. She looked a bit like my cat with her tortoiseshell markings. The woman did not like me telling her that her mask needed to be worn properly (over her nose as well) if she wanted to remain…

  • Rage Rant

    I seriously wanted to punch this man in the face. I will use him as my inspiration while I exercise tonight and I imagine punching him in the face. And kicking him in the groin.

    As predicted By me The Tucson Unified School District Once again Ditched their plans For hybrid learning Days before the start. I am glad that they changed Their plans. What I don’t understand Is why they insist on Pursuing this course of action In obviously unsafe times.

    My brain has been restless. I’ve been up. I’ve been down. I thought my brother had Covid. I found out he doesn’t. I was looking forward to Halloween. Then my son got sick. His fever was gone yesterday and his appetite seems normal today and we’re still going to the doctor later today.

    I used to enjoy in between times. Seek them out even. These days are a drag. A never ending drag. It is so much easier to be allowed to focus on one thing. If I could figure out a lifestyle that allowed me to homeschool my child, I would never do it the way the…

  • Bye, Bye June

    It’s the third of July and I am relishing the couple more hours of quiet time I have before picking up my child from day camp. I always hope to have the energy to write at night, but I haven’t felt that recently. Just a whole lot of stress about working with the public during…
