Schooling

It’s my turn. I’m taking an English class. See, remember how I got a job? Teaching English? And how I don’t actually hold a teaching degree? Or an English major? I’m totally on my way to remedying that. Also, I just spelled remedying correctly. First try. (Twice.) So I’m taking a British Literature class. Reading

Throb.

Man of Steel. I saw him. It. I saw it. Husband “warned” me that there was some theoretical hotness. He doesn’t actually feel qualified to measure such things, but said there may be some shirtlessness and so forth. I explained to him (again) that for me, beautiful men on screen are just an exercise in

Pigeons

I live in a little town in a mountain valley. It’s very lovely here, I tell you. Mountains out every window. At this moment, everything’s green and perfect — trees and plants and lawns sort of glimmer, and the hills have managed to keep enough of the scant water they got this winter to be

I forgot to tell you this thing.

Guys, I read a Book. It has a capital B, because it was really good. And long, and written with serious-brained readers in mind (you can just tell, get me?). So I’m sure many of you have read it, because it got rather a lot of press this year, but here you go: THE ORPHAN

Whoa, Bessie.

I don’t know who Bessie is. Wait. I do. In “Philadelphia Story” George, the pretentious fiancee, says, “Whoa, Bessie,” to the horse he’s trying (failing) to ride. Over and over. Then he tells Dinah, the hilarious little sister, that he doesn’t know what’s gotten in to Bessie this morning. And she replies something about “maybe

Memorials

This morning Kids 3 and 4 sang at a Memorial Day program in our town. Kid 3 had a solo, and despite her pretty nasty cold, she rocked it. The program was lovely, with Service Veteran speakers and good music. You know when they play the “theme songs” of each military branch and the veterans

Your MOM Goes to College?

It’s happening. Again. I got a job. (A real one.) (Slightly more real than subbing every day.) I. Will. Be. Teaching 10th grade English at my Kids’ high school. [1] I am eager. I am excited. I am unlicensed. Um. Yeah. So Utah has this program where I can earn my license while I teach.
