I thought I was so clever when I assigned these policy and position statements — and I was— but this is some of the most boring stuff I’ve ever had to grade. It’s not meant to be interesting or exciting but my brain is melting from tedium. Lord give me the mental strength to keep going!

Living in Florida and being racially ambiguous can be inconvenient. I’m fairly certain my next door neighbor doesn’t like me because she thinks I’m a “no sabo” kid. And I mean, I don’t sabo, but I’m learning on Duo Lingo. Folks just speak to me in Spanish and I’m like… 🤷🏽‍♀️😅

My boo thang is going to college in like 2.5 weeks, so I’m planning all sorts of family qt. Today is family fun Friday— any suggestions? So far we’ve got spades, uno, and I’m trying to get them to pick a movie to watch. I may set up the ping pong set.
