Sometimes you have to take the leap and build your wings on the way down. In the new forty that is what I am doing – building my wings.

Got humor?

July 27, 2009 Ms. CLeave a comment

Seriously, some folks take themselves too seriously. Do you know anyone like this? These are the folks who bring down the overall adult laugh average both by their lack of laughter and their inability to inspire laughter in others.

Do you need elderly assistance…

July 26, 2009 Ms. C1 Comment

I know what you are thinking, “My goodness what an incredible likeness!” This is a picture Cheyenne drew of me in kindergarten.

The Monthly “Visit”

Well there it was again, like clockwork – that time of the month had arrived again all too soon. I absolutely dread it and I am so happy when it is over because I know I have a whole month before I’ll have to experience it again. But what can I really do about it…it [...]

OMG – WTF!

July 19, 2009 Ms. C1 Comment

I teach in the land of acronyms – emergency management (which has its own acronym – EM). We have so many acronyms in EM that we have to have a book that lists them all.
