What I would like to see...
I would like to see more on the "Go Red" Campaign from the American Heart Association. Do people realize that more women die from heart disease kills 6 times as many women annually than breast cancer? Why doesn't heart disease get as much play ( Read more... ) -
Thoughts on 9/11
7 years ago, I sat in a dorm room at Keene College in New Hampshire contemplating my next move. I was watching television and surfing the internet for plane tickets back to either Memphis or Colorado. I was just out of a very bad relationship, I had 500.00 to my name, my father had had 3 strokes and been hospitalized for a month and my grandfather ( Read more... ) -
Good news, bad news
The good news: I am confident in my test taking skills, so much so that my godmother is paying for the Praxis test. Zahnder got into the Perea School for August. Subbing is a great way to get exposure and make connections. Rent is paid for the month and the utilities are not stupid high this month ( Read more... ) -
Pre-School for Zahnder K.
So my potty trained 3 year old has been asking to go to school. I would love to send him, but even if I were a full time teacher, I know we could not afford the highway freaking robbery rape me because I am a working mom price of 450 a month to put him in school along with another 450 a month for his brother.

PPST, PRAXIS, College Algebra
Seriously, I thought I was done with testing and crap when I left school. Apparently not.

I love teaching and working with the kids, but I need to move on from ( Read more... ) -

RAVELRY...My new addiction
Now I am totally new to knitting. I am teaching myself and I have one helluva long tail cast on. But I needed to be challenged and I wanted to be surrounded in organized chaos as I learn. Ravelry! It took about 17 days for me to get my invite and that rocks considering that there were well over 7000 people ahead of me. I am in Ravelry looking at ( Read more... ) -
Mercy, have sweet mercy...
I had NO IDEA that teaching could take so much out of you. Seriously. I knew of course that it was no easy job as many make it out to be, but wow, my head continues to swim. Praxis (teacher test of doom) is the only thing that keeps me from being a "certificated" teacher in the state of TN. so I am biding my time as a teacher assistant in a small ( Read more... ) -
