After a traumatic leave from my dream job - teaching Junior High School Theatre - I returned to teaching Elementary School. It was hard. I missed my kiddos immensely. I missed my dream job, not to mention how traumatic it was to leave. After two years, I decided to accept the fact that I am an elementary school teacher by posting something positive that happened in my classroom every day. It started on Instagram and Facebook. It's now in blog form. Thanks for coming.

The scene: I’m sitting in the circle with all the sixth graders in actor’s neutral, minding my own business, When a student raises her hand hand says,
Why do you have a limp?
…
Me: A limp?
Student: yeah! Why do you have a limp?
It’s my knee and my hips folks! I get up and down a lot, at least a dozen times a day, and that’s being conservative.
I didn’t realize my age (and arthritis) is starting to show. I only limp AFTER I get up, and only for for a few seconds until the weird feeling is straightened out, then I walk without the limp.
