Why Am I “Scary”?
I get told more often than I care to admit that I "scare" people. This has me puzzled. I don't know what I'm doing to warrant that. It bothers me probably more lately. You don't get a second chance at a first impression. Apparently, my first impression is one of fear. Not intentioned by any … Continue reading Why Am I “Scary”?
Strange Things Happening
Well, a few good things...I get emails from teachers. Long emails too. I also receive daily progress reports from Edgenuity via email...something that would have been nice to get from day 1.

Plain Ignorance….surrounding me
This blog is related to the June 8 blog "Even Adults Deal with Bullies"....heck, who am I kidding....there's a book begging to be written about this topic.This goes beyond bullying. It shows how classless, petty and self-centered bullies can be. I cannot say that I didn't expect less from this bully. They were given an … Continue reading Plain Ignorance….surrounding me
