I miss teaching but not as much as I love being consistently less stressed out and anxious. I miss my students but not as much as I value prioritizing my mental and physical health. And I’m not sorry about it.

When I was a babysitter I used to LOVE when the parents (especially the mom) came home drunk. They were always so much fun. Offering life advice and complements or deep meaningful convos. Sometimes sending me home with food. Ah, I can’t wait to be that mom one day!

Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it. This man works SO hard and is beyond humble, always. I might be a *little* biased, but I believe he’s absolutely the best Special Teams coach out there. 🐊💙🧡🏈 Go Gators!

Some notes on my first game at “The Swamp”: a lot of gator fans show up, like A LOT a lot, traditions and cheers are so upbeat and fun, Tom Petty “Won’t Back Down” in the third quarter gave me goosebumps and almost brought me to tears! Overall, just so insanely magical. 🧡💙

Y’all. Teachers will literally stop at NOTHING to support their students (past or present)!
Just got a pedicure & a student who graduated 2 years ago came in. I asked how she & her 4 year old were doing & with a big smile said she just finished beauty school & needs a job/clients.
I said “Let’s make me first & I’ll spread it everywhere”! Lil help my friends?

It took a long time to get here. I still feel a little pang of teacher guilt every now and then. But putting my needs and health before the career that was destroying me was what had to happen. I mostly miss what teaching *used* to be, not the shit show it’s been lately.

Y’all it is really that simple. I keep an entire supply of pencils and have them out all day, everyday. Erasers, too. Yes, I buy them. Yes, it’s another added expense. But they need it and I’m not going to reprimand them for not having one. Just give the kid a pencil.

I had recently gotten engaged, a few weeks after being hired. One student (4th grade) said “What’s his name?”. I replied “Christopher”, she says, “Oh, Columbus?” with an absolute straight face, 100% serious. At least she paid attention in Social Studies? 🤔

Just a few of my favorite pictures from a beyond amazing football season. Football is so much more than a few months of games and what you may see on TV. It’s truly a crazy wild, ride that can be tiring and exhausting, but also so rewarding. ❤️ If you know, you know.

Actively listening and then asking “what do YOU think we can do to change/fix/help this”. Also, no random 5 min walk throughs; instead, actually sit for a while, interact with the kids, and learn about what we are doing. Lastly, actually stand up for us against unruly parents!

1. Everyone’s first year is rough. Also yes, it’s really hard. Like really hard. 2. You can have not great test scores/observations and still be a great teacher. 3. It’s okay to laugh and have fun with the kids. The curriculum can wait sometimes. 💗

You don’t deserve an explanation but: the MAIN reason (*not the only) I quit was because I was physically abused by a student every single day. So, maybe you’d be willing to put up with this kind of abuse and shaming a suffering educator on the internet, but I would never.

When a friend tells me they are going into education I try to be as supportive as possible. Realistic, yet supportive. But truthfully, people who are passionate about helping children will go into this profession if it’s challenging or not. And those are the teachers we need. 🙌

My husband is a morning person. I am NOT. Never have been, probably never will be. Almost every day, he wakes up first, very quietly, walks the dog, and then makes or gets me coffee. Allowing me to sleep as late as I want. This alone is enough of a reason to love him forever. ❤️

Yup, I get it. In 2020 during the height of the pandemic I had to start therapy again with an anti depressant. It’s helped and I’m beyond thankful for it, but it shouldn’t have gotten that far due to my career and it’s constant issues.

Pick your battles wisely. It’s okay to let some things go, even if it’s hard. I also always give myself three deep breaths or at least count to three before reacting when upset. And that’s also something I tried to instill with my students.
