Shout-out to .crave for gathering another Black man who had the audacity to give an unsolicited opinion on what Black women should not wear.

I was so tickled, I decided to put on by to watch the in the 2025 Sugar Bowl.

Please wear your lipstick!!

Luxe packaging can take a customer's first experience to a different leve! So excited to receive my products from (Sunrise, FL). I read only glowing reviews so I'm looking forward to getting started.

Christmas Cocoa Bombs custom made by of !

Local peeps, it's not too late!

These count as fruit servings. Don't @ me.

The three boxes I shipped from GA arrived on Friday. There are still more boxes in Atlanta,, but at least now I can start putting my room together.

Tell me you think of others when doing something for yourself without....

I'll go first: I spent part of my birthday money on books for The Last One Out.

🥴

I promise, I never told this parent or student that I love skincare.🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭

What a pleasant and unexpected surprise. This has been the year to top all years. I didn't think I would make it, but I did.

You see a Mr. Goodbar.

What you don't see is the student who gave it to me. A student I visited (uannounced) multiple times during the 1st semester.

A student who told me he doesn't like Math.

A student who wouldn't log-in.

A student who wouldn't do any work.

It's the same student who says 'Good morning!' when they walk into my room.

It's the same student who now believes it's ok to ask for help.

It's the same student who no longer needs to te him about using the text-to-speech function on his computer.

I am going to especially miss this group because we did not have a year together.

Because I survived teaching a full year during the pandemic, I know that I will survive leaving.

Happy

I'm still washing my hands. Are you?

I also have to put on my mask before I leave my classroom.

29 more morning alarms to go before I can say that I survived an entire year of Pandemic Teaching!

I chose not to read or respond to any work-related emails during Spring Break because I truly needed to unplug.

When I returned to work today, I started going through my inbox and found this awesome piece of news from (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, for the non-nerdy folks).

I hesitated to submit a proposal because I'm still getting used to referring to myself as a Math Teacher. I actually teach Resource Math & Science to students with Learning Disabilities. Oftentimes, we feel like an island because that's how we are treated in our districts and buildings. I'm glad I finalized and submitted my proposal; I stayed true to my passion: Equity in Math classrooms for students with Learning Disabilities.

Now, the real work (of preparing) begins!

Is this what it's like being a DJ? I need 2 laptops to do the 1,001 jobs that come with teaching F2F and virtually at the same time.

41 days.

Forty-one days.

40 + 1

I'm smiling under my mask..I promise.

Pfizer vaccine 2 of 2 done!

I'm gonna sit in my car with some ginger ale for a little longer to make sure I'm not sleepy before driving back to GA.
