Need to Know Basis

Just sharing my thoughts on motherhood, marriage, teaching high school English and life... the highs, the lows, the good, the bad, potty training and adolescent tantrums...it's just me being me...take a look and see...you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll shake your head and sigh...and maybe just maybe, you'll learn something that you didn't know you needed to know.


I'm a working mom with a loving husband who, like most husbands, can drive me crazy sometimes. I've got two amazing children who are the lights of my life but can also drive a mama to want to pull every hair out of my head with a rusty tweezer every now and again.  I am blessed in this crazy economy to have a wonderful and often thankless job as a high school English teacher and Grade Advisor, but sometimes, sometimes, I just feel like today's kids are getting dumber and dumber, have no respect for education or authority, and it's up to me and the teachers of the world to try shape our future doctors, lawyers, dentists, musicians...and home health aids because when we get older, who's going to be the ones taking care of us? Hm?  Got your attention now?


And after two kids, I still look good!! 

The rest...well, you'll just have to read and find out!
