Work has become more challenging for me this school year due the makeup of the students. It seems we have a higher proportion of students with special needs than before. Still, I'm glad to be back at work, following schedules and routines. They structure my days, helping me stay organized and disciplined. There will be no more traveling in the near future, except for weekend getaways - what a relief! Best of all, I'm starting to get active in the kitchen again, making home-cooked meals for ... continue reading...

Fiesta Friday #605
Skye is officially 17! She turned 17 sometime this year; her exact date of birth is unconfirmed. We brought her home on August 22nd nine years ago at the ripe old age of 8, so we know she was at least 17 a couple of weeks ago. But of course it wasn't official until she had a birthday cake. It's a savory cake made out of meatloaf and mashed potato "fondant" and I made it extra special by carving her likeness as the topping. I couldn't get a good picture of her scarfing it down, but trust me, ... continue reading...

Summer is officially over for me! Work started a few days ago so my summer break has come to an end 😭 Unfortunately, I didn’t get the chance to deep clean or reorganize my house this year because I had too many unexpected trips.

I want to enjoy all the California things! ... continue reading...
Fiesta Friday #602
In a few days, my family and I will have to say goodbye once again to our house. This time, we’ll be heading to California and leaving Skye behind 🐶😭 Honestly, I’m a little tired of traveling, but the thought of reuniting with loved ones for a much-anticipated wedding excites me. The only drawback is that just two days after we return, I’ll have to go back to work. Now, that's sad 😭 Oh well... it is what it is. There are far worse things that can happen to you. Just think of Gaza or Ukraine, ... continue reading...
