Been away for a bit. Found out I had ovarian cancer, had a hysterectomy, started chemo yesterday, had a reaction, finishing chemo today. I’ll end up with six rounds total. In happier news, I’ve had a blast trying out different wigs!

I’m seeing a gynecologic oncologist next week. I’m scared but hopeful. If it’s cancer, and my dr thinks it is, they’re sure they caught it very early.

I have two solid masses and a cyst on my right ovary. It’s possible everything is benign, but I am still in the waiting to find out phase. Blood was drawn on Thursday to screen for an ovarian cancer protein, and I have a second MRI on Monday. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t scared.

One of the things I always look forward to in the spring is getting a peek at my potential class roster for the next school year!! 🥳

If I texted my plans containing confidential student information to a reporter, I would be fired. When Pete Hegseth includes a reporter in a group chat with highly classified military details, that’s just a day that ends in y.

The cyst on my pancreas is back, along with one near my ovaries. None of the drs involved are panicking, so I will.

It’s a really long story, but I didn’t become a teacher until I was 50. It was my dream job, and now it feels like the wheels are flying off. 😔

Narcissists project ALL the time. That’s how they give themselves away. For example… Narcissist says, “You’re a doodie head.” Narcissist means, “I’m a doodie head.”

I won the “Not the Worst Human” award from my cats. I won it by a landslide with record voter turnout. My cats said they’ve never seen a human not worse than me. The RADICAL DOG IN THIS HOUSE SAID SHE LOVES EVERYONE. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ALLOW YOUR PETS TO BE INDOCTRINATED.

“Are you a teacher?” “Yes!” Random school-related conversation follows. “Know how I knew you were a teacher?” “My shirt?” (That says “Proud Educator”) “No. Your shoes.” I WAS WEARING THE INTRODUCTORY CROCS I BOUGHT YESTERDAY!

Let’s not forget Trump was killing people in his first presidency too. This is a screenshot of a conversation with a lifelong friend when the COVID vaccine was coming out. My husband is a pharmacist, so that’s who I’m referring to in my reply. She never got vaccinated and went on to die from COVID.

Contemplating auditioning for a role in “Packing Up Polly” at my local community theater. Concerned I’m too old to pass for a 40-something. Also concerned I’ll have to do a convincing southern accent. Hoping they’re desperate enough for actors to ignore those concerns.
