WELCOME!  New Look!  Updated to include health issues....updated 6/01/2021
​This site is dedicated to teachers in and out of the classroom.  I spent 31 years in the classroom and 9 years as a literacy specialist. (I have an endorsement in health education and was a columnist for several years with the Examiner.) So, I know first-hand just how hard it can be.  Before my retirement, I began doing research on dealing with my health issues and most of my problems involved around what I was and wasn't eating.  Now, I will share what I have learned and discover, to make a teacher's life a little better.

​My brother, Joey, always said that one never knows what to expect in life.  He lived his life, despite the challenges he faced.  Joey taught me that inner strength comes from believing in one's mission and to never give up!  Everyday, I do my best to live by his words of wisdom.  After all, my brother, Joey, was my best friend.
