Last week was school vacation week in New Hampshire. No longer a member of the educational world, it was not a week of vacation for me. However, with teenage children, I was able to bring them with me for a few days of work/personal travel. Not needing constant entertainment, my husband and I took them on a tour of the mid-Atlantic region, visiting a few hubs and attending a few business appointments. Although it wasn't a tropical locale, the kids did seem to enjoy seeing historical items of note, museums, and tourist areas.
Having completed this trip, I

Happy Earth Day!
In my past career as a teacher, Earth Day was a celebration that I always acknowledged in my classroom. Depending on the grade I taught and the subjects we were studying at the time, I found a way to incorporate Earth Day. One year, we ate lunch together and recorded the impact of one meal: the amount of trash created, the amount of recyclables, etc. Another year, we researched endangered animals and shared the reports in class.
No longer in the world of education, I find that I don't pay as much attention to the day. Yes, I

Loss
Throughout my life I have been surrounded by pets. My parents always had a cat and/or dog during my early years. Once I reached elementary age, I had my own cat or dog. I loved being surrounded by furry creatures that provide such comforting companionship. Currently, the only pets I have are ten chickens, as there are too many allergies to fur in my house. While they aren't the cuddly sort of pet, they do hold a special place in my heart. Yes, when there is a different sounding squawk, I do hurry to check on them.

April Highlights
April always makes me think of new beginnings. Although spring starts in March, April always feels more like the beginning of spring to me. Part of that may be that living in New Hampshire there is a good chance that March will be cold and snowy. The same is true for April, but by this time in the year I am more hopeful that the days of snowstorms and sub-freezing temperatures are behind us for many months.
With the days getting longer and the temperatures slowly creeping higher, I feel more motivated to begin new projects, both big
