I have always had this irrational fear that my ex-husband would find me and kill me. I'm almost certain that would be the case if he knew where I was located. I've encountered him three times in the past decade or so, and every time I had a panic reaction to him.  He's the worst of humanity.

3 years ago, I left crazy drama behind and I've never been happier. So now, that crazy drama keeps stalking me. I know they're reading this post right now. And guess what? I'm ok with that. Read away. Bask in the life I've created. Maybe I'll hand it over to you some other day, like I did my last one ( Read more... )

So, today begins my 3rd school year with the public school system here. I am so ecstatic to welcome back all my little kiddos into the classroom! It's the first year I've felt very prepared, most likely because I got to keep my office! (Last summer, I had to move from a giant classroom to a smallish office ( Read more... )

I was lost, but now I'm found.
