Teacher With a Tude
I am a pragmatic romantic who expects the best but prepares for the worst. ... and a proud member for 3 years 11 weeks
I currently reside in Southern California after spending the first part of my life on the east coast. I am forty something, and I have been teaching for twenty years. I could write a book about it, if I could find the time. Happily married with two boys, ages six and two, my biggest challenge is balancing the domestic life with the professional life. I currently work in an alternative school, which is a vocation for me. My students are what I once was. Oh, and the attitude? On good days, it's one of gratitude. I've been sober for 12 years now.My Latest Post:
