Starting my day with a text: "When is *** going to get ANY kind of college degree?" 😒
Friends, my child has been through a lot medically, made the deans list last term and continues to persist.
Let's celebrate that.
Nothing like getting a threatening letter for collections the month after you paid a medical bill in full... and have their confirmation email that it processed.
It's for the same bill.
Heartbreaking.
Wishing you all a positive week!
This week: "Please do not use lime green text." 😭
Running the numbers, and my social media/blog team's work brought $3 million owned media value (think: marketing cost savings) in 1st quarter.
Not bad for a mighty team of 3.
Illness is not a moral failure. Medical debt is not a sign of poor character. But choosing war over healthcare — cutting Medicaid while Americans go broke getting sick? That IS a failure. A moral one. #HealthcareNotTrumpsWar
It's April, which means checking in on my Kansas people after seeing video footage. 🌪
Sounds like a great blessing. Safe travels.
I think we all have!
APA formatting was in the guidelines.
Fellow diabetics, this is your reminder. Jelly beans are about 1/3 the cost of glucose tabs right now.
I love this. Second chances are needed.
Kick-started my week by sending my students an announcement on avoiding paraphrasing plagiarism, with examples and links for support on learning to do APA style.
Show me the citations.
That would be easier to read I believe!
Just had to tell one student: "LinkedIn is not a scholarly reference."
One of my college students turned in a paper that's all center-aligned. I just can't. 😐
To be fair, I'm not quite sure where the flint and steel are, and I wasn't going to dare go into my teenager's room to attempt to find his fire by friction set to pop a spark.
Nor a tampon. 😂 Yes we know all the tricks.
Just blessed with good weather, little to no wind, and plenty of kindling and know-how.

This retired scout mom can still make a one-match fire. 🔥😎

A laptop screen shows Google searches for the past year for the Avignon Papacy, with a large spike at April 2026
When my love of history and content search collide.
Google search history for Avignon Papacy is up a bit.

Speaker Johnson, we are calling on you to bring the House back to DC IMMEDIATELY!
The Cabinet needs to invoke the 25th Amendment. But Congress can’t just sit on its hands and wait for that to happen when the President is threatening to commit war crimes TONIGHT.
In an uncertain world, make a difference one person at a time. ❤️
I feel sick to my stomach waiting around to see what atrocity Trump has in mind for the people of Iran this evening. It's hard to fathom our other elected leaders aren't able to check him in any meaningful way. It's an indictment not just of voters but of our whole system. We're ruled by a mad king.
But…what, exactly?
Ugh. St. Michael. I'm shaking with anger at an entire civilization being threatened to be wiped out.

Made another futile call to my Congressmen and am resorting to the St. Muchael the Archangel prayer.
