6 years seems like a blink -but then I look at pictures of my 16yo and 11yo at 10 and 5 and HOW? What a blink?!

I wanted to slow down this weekend, and that has been mostly successful. But when I re-enter regular life, I'm afraid all that slow energy will hit fast forward again.

Slept in a top bunk last night for the first time in 40ish years!

Finished watching Station Eleven last night - and sobbed. So beautiful -both the book and the series!

I really enjoy being a morning person in a house full of people who are not - sometimes I just laugh all morning...at their pain.

I was feeling really ratty so I got a three in one flu and Covid test. Turns out I just have a man-cold

To the student who greeted me this morning by saying, You wore that shirt last week!” Thank you, at least they’re paying attention to something I do

Is it weird that when I watch these post-apocalypse shows I think the world looks so much prettier without all the people?

I'm reading a very well reviewed middle grade novel that sounds way too much like high school -you can't just say the characters are in 7th grade, they actually have to sound like it!!!!

Both terrifying, sad and true "Part of the allure of being a sports parent, Cohen writes, is the status you are afforded when your child succeeds: “You’re treated better when your kid scores; your status is raised,” he writes. " www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

I try to practice the Buddhist mindset of not craving and chasing but it is hard when I want something that someone else has.

After my dad's stroke he lost the use of the left side of his body. Not a day goes by that I don't watch myself do things with both hands or feet -simple things like getting a plate from the cabinet - and feel grateful.

I misread an ad for ambient yoga as ambivalent yoga -and for just a moment I felt so seen.

He definitely has a point

The most important thing you can do to alleviate the climate crisis is vote. Corporations want you to think it's recycling or buying electric cars -but that's just to put the onus on the individual where it does not belong. Policy change is the only change that matters.

Ma and my kid made pickles this year with our own dill and cukes. Other than that the garden was a bit of a bust

Last year I had a huge gender imbalance in my classroom and today as I sit with a new group where the numbers are even, I'm reminded of what a huge shit show that was.

This is from 2 weeks ago and just trying to hang on to this level of calm as much as possible.

The most sad and banal moment is to dream of buying something at the grocery store only to wake and realize not only that you don't have the item but that your dream was super lame.

Some day when I am no longer teaching I will take the entire month of September off just to relish every second.

So many ppl I talk to agree that youth sports culture is broken- so why do we keep spending money to support it???!!!

I spent 2 full days off the grid. It was so quiet. Coming back to the world is an assault on the senses.

The reviews for this place said "the place to go if you're serious about dessert..." and I can't imagine being serious about anything else.

The girls volleyball team is selling mums to buy new gear, also unhoused people need tents and sleeping bags -can you donate? The cognitive dissonance of these two types of "needs" is too much for me.

Ah, August - my favorite month for the warm days and cool nights - but also the dark night of the teacher's soul.

When I tell ppl I teach middle school it usually elicits a reaction of fear and awe -ppl want to know if it's as "bad" as they remember and the answer is always yes, and no.

There's a difference between wanting to finish a book and just wanting to know what happens.
