Hey, family and friends. Hope this finds you well.

Just a friendly status update from me: tomorrow I'll be starting my annual monthlong vacation from social media other than to extend birthday wishes.

See ya sometime in early May. Cheers!

.... and the rain/sleet/snow has arrived after yesterday's 30°+ drop in temperature along with last night's hefty downpour.

March is definitely going out like a lion.

Have a great week, everybody!

One minute you're creating fun memories with an 8th grader from one of your NRMS classes ... then POOF! 25 years later you're reminiscing with that same student while chatting over a cup of coffee.

Life is grand!

Everyone deserves a chance to fly
And if I'm flying solo
At least I'm flying free

It's been 1 week since the Academy Awards and I still have Cynthia Erivo's performance running through my head.

Simply mesmerizing.
