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!

“tRuMp Is PlAyInG cHEsS” No he’s not. He’s playing golf.

Republicans: From “the price of eggs!” to “I don’t really care about my 401(k)” in a couple of months.

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.

Wearing white jeans and feeling invincible! Will update as to status of white jeans at end of day.

I need to go to sleep so I can wake up and go get coffee.

Our last day of spring break is today, so it’s back to school tomorrow! Believe it or not, I’m ready. My classroom is my happy place. 🥰

I’m jealous of people who have super-snuggly cats.

Where does everyone who’s cheering all these government cuts think the money is going to go? In their pockets? Have they ever actually met the government??

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.”

RCJH! ❤️ 💙 🏀 ❤️ 💙 🏀 ❤️ 💙

I lifted some weights last night. Now I’m taking 19,710 rest days because that’s what you have to do. 🤷🏻‍♀️

🇺🇲

I got two coffees at once today because I’m a grown up. ☕️ ☕️

MRI on my pancreas this morning! Just a yearly follow-up after a pancreatic cyst removal. Accepting good vibes if you have some laying around that you’re not using.

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.

What’s it like living in Kansas? (Other than the obvious) It is currently 85 degrees with a blizzard warning for tomorrow.

“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!

When is the Kennedy Center going to start having monster truck rallies? Asking for MAGA.

Are there tariffs on bootstraps? Asking for conservatives.

I’m in another starter pack! Thank you, and welcome to everyone who followed me! 🥰

Still true.

Our country’s falling apart. Might as well buy and wear my first pair of Crocs.

We are not alike.

“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.”

I have many things to do, but I obviously will not be doing them for a bit.

“The Electric State” is somewhat “Maximum Overdrive” for a new generation.

This is the first starter pack I’ve ever been added to, and the fact that the description includes the words “yam tits” makes it even better! 🥳🥹

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.

Latest project! I can already tell I’m going to love the finished product!

Sat night in the 80s: 2 hours of hair & makeup prep in order to go drag main Sat night now: I can’t wait to cross stitch & read on my sunporch! I can use the same readers for both!! Bonus: fresh batteries in my hearing aid so I can listen to Whitesnake while I read & cross stitch!

Wow! I hadn’t checked for a bit, and I come back to 30+ new followers! Welcome! Hope you like mediocre posts!! 😆

Schumer would have let Khrushchev put nuclear missiles on Cuba, because if he didn’t we’d have World War III.

Someone more creative than me needs to write a “If You Give A Billionaire A Dollar” book.

I think it’s about time to bring Happy Bunny back. That’s exactly the kind of snark we all need right now.

When he talks in his baby voice, he’s admitting he also doesn’t believe a word he’s saying.

Guys, we misunderstood. It’s actually, Make America, “Great. Again. 🙄”

Things I never thought I’d say as a 6th grade teacher… “We don’t sit on the bathroom sink.” “We don’t lick our friends.” “Only one person at a time in the restroom stalls.”

american masculinity is so amazing. caring about clothes as a man apparently makes you "gay" but our position on geopolitics totally depends on whether you wear a suit

Curled my hair this morning. The left side said, “YAS!” The right side said, “LOL.”

There’s a surprisingly large number of people who are willing to burn down their house to kill a spider.

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.

Is there a 6th grade chemistry and physics teacher in the house? 😬

My 15 year old granddaughter is in love with Matt Dillon, and I am HERE for it!!
