Tell ya somethin about tariffs, bud, taxin trade just to tickle a tough guy image? That’s takin a tractor to a tricycle problem. Tariffs, tacked on to tout toughness, tend to tank trust, trade n the towns take home. Typical tactic, talk tough, tax tons, tumble the tickle trunk. #TariffTantrum

So proud of this generation of middle schoolers. Yesterdayi asked them if they knew what SCOTUS was and not one said "you mean scrotum?" I mean they still didn't know but they didn't go to the gutter either. That, my friends, is called progress. #teacher #middleschool

Would not recommend this TA for your classroom when working remote. She kept touching by chest. Bit me a couple of times. Was "sleeping" everytime a student popped in to ask for help. Honestly, I don't even think she can read. And she shit herself at lunch #teacher #momlife #teachingassistant

Ever notice how people say, I could care less, when they really mean I couldnt care less? If yew could care less, it means ye still care a little, right? If ye couldnt care less, it means ye reached rock bottom on the caring scale Theres no further to go. So do ye care or are ye just bad at grammar?

I haven't actually written anything in a year. And I haven't posted work to my blog in over 2 years. My life has been busy with excitement of getting married and having a baby girl. Now to find a spot where writing fits. #writingcommunity #newmom

Well #writingcommunity , I'm looking to start following some other writers. It's been a hot minute since I sat down to actually write. Hopefully a little community will light that fire.
