Just wanted to remind all my Heber Valley friends that I’m teaching a Community Ed class or two. Because School is Cool. And Community Ed is even cooler, because… no grades. HERE IS THE LINK to the UVU Wasatch ComEd page, where you can register for either my Teen class, or my Adult class (it’s...

Category Archives: schoolDo you have a writing zone? An office? A cave? A favorite table in a favorite cafe? Do you have a preferred writing time? Are you a morning person? A night owl? A moment-snatcher, during naps (someone else’s)? Do you need music? Silence? Chaos? Strangers? Midday sunlight? Vivaldi in A Minor performed by the London... Ha. Ha ha. Ha ha ha. Mother Nature is absolutely having a joke with me. It is snowing. Right now. Big, fat, wet flakes that are covering my tulips like white stocking caps. Isn’t that hysterical?

Kid 4 changed his shirt so he could match Justin, who is beyond all the coolness... No, really, what AM I doing? I feel a little silly even writing a post like this, because, really, who cares? But some people have been asking. So that means someone cares. If it isn’t you, feel free to go get yourself an apple or a cupcake. I’ll promise not to be offended. But here’s... |
