Today, we had the inside of Granny's house painted. Wow! What a coat of white paint can do for a house! Mom and I painted it around the summer of 1990, and I'm not sure if it has been painted since then.
Since Mom and I are exhausted from all the moving and cleaning, we hired a company to paint. While they painted, Mom and I worked in the shed, taking more trash to the curb and sorting more things for Goodwill.
A little more work and we should be finished. Thank goodness!

Welcome!
Originally, I began this site to assist leaders and share Girl Scout ideas. I will continue to do that, but I have changed my focus to share a little about everything. I will ramble on and on about education, of which I have been a part for the last 28 years, Girl Scouts, which runs deeply through me as I was one from Kindergarten-12th grade, earned my Gold Award, and have led troops for at least 11 years, and life, which I live daily--the ups and the downs.
I have taught Pre-K students through adults in the private sector and through Professional Development. I taught 3rd-6th grades in public school, worked at the District level with K-5th Science teachers, and at the campus level with 6th-8th grade teachers in all content areas. I have worked more closely with the Science community the last 8 years, but I am now going back to my ELA and History roots and working with all three.
Our Girl Scout Troop, which I lead with a BFF, is a Cadette Troop. Over the last few years, we have had 5 girls earn their Bronze Award and 2 earn their Silver Award. We hope to have more in the coming years. Since this, we have combined 4 older girl troops. We now have girls 7th - 11th grades.
