I am having another week where I dream of traveling away from the horrible place known as Virginia. If is pretty true that I should never have let my family use coercion to make me move to a terrible state. All of my job paychecks are going into buying supplies to move far away from the really BAD situation here.
Words can not describe the nightmare loathing I feel towards the state of Virginia. It is safe to say I have completed hated every square foot of the state compared to other places I have lived. #horrifiedpainandagony
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! Here are special picks from my top teacher poster of the week photos selection. I take photos of the other teacher’s classrooms as I am working as a teacher, and post my top favorites online.
I got the worst ear infection and case of bronchitis this week that I have ever had in my life. Despite the really long lines the doctor was able to see me, but the hospital was super busy as the drop of the mask mandate this month tripled the amount of Covid-19 cases he was treating he mentioned to me.

Before teaching Kindergarten I used to struggle to get 10 thousand steps a day. Now I hit 14 thousand steps before I even hit the gym. Kids are hard work.
The Planet’s Return! I decided to return to Planet Fitness gym this week. It may have issues, but it was not as expensive as the money grubbing gyms I have been dealing with as an alternative. National chain gyms are great for road trips in RVs or traveling vans as you can shower at the gym as you travel minimizing the need for expensive hotel showers. I dream daily of leaving Virginia in an RV as I dislike my family moving to this area. I am a bit concerned that it has anti-crime logos everywhere as Planet Fitness gyms in Texas did NOT do that, and it hints at need for concern.
Strange but true right as my brother was visiting this week from out of town Facebook brought up an old photo of us as kids in the memories section. I am the kid in the middle, and on the far right is my sister Lily.
I managed to catch the Norfolk show for Birthday Massacre at Elevation 27 club. The light show and sound system was amazing. 🤩 It made me want to visit Norfolk far more often. I got a hotel in town to avoid the traffic driving back. I was so happy to see live music again the band could have come out and kicked me in the head, and I still would have loved it. Seeing a really great new album performance was an extra bonus!
One thing phone shopping lately has shown me is that phones have changed a lot since I was a kid. Sometimes nothing beats the feel of a vintage phone. This joke has a point, and so I made a censored version where we can all imagine they are saying freaking.
