Toothpaste Love

Trina pushed my toothpaste up into the tube, so it would be easier for me to get it out. This was done anonymously. She loves me and makes my life easier and lighter.

I love her.

Risinger.. A Lovely Lady

Linda served on our Special Education Staff on our campus. She loved me being in ARDS with her, I kept meetings moving along. She would sometimes come into my room and listen to me teach. I asked her once about why certain troubled and behavior-deficient students were not coming into my class.. her reply: "Feeback, you work hard here, I take care of you." My favorite quote: "I like you, Feeback. You actually care about these students and you teach."

I heard from many teachers and staff members last night. Mr. Pena texted me, "she was a lovely lady."

Well said.

First Photo Permanent Ever

Niépce set up a device called a camera obscura, which captured and projected scenes illuminated by sunlight, and trained it on the view outside his studio window in eastern France. The scene was cast on a treated pewter plate that, after many hours, retained a crude copy of the buildings and rooftops outside. The result was the first known permanent photograph.

View From The Window At Le Gras, Joseph Nicéphore Niépce, 1826

Birthday Joy

Yesterday was amazing!! Trina and I began celebrating Sunday night with a dinner to Perry's. We killed it.. ate so much we were too full for ice cream and popcorn. Then yesterday we chilled out. We met Zach and Emily at House of Pies, then jetted over to their apartment to meet Lady, the newest addition!

Trina then cooked a great dinner Shrimp and Grits. AWESOME!!! We ended the day with our daily bike ride through the neighborhood. Had tons of texts and FB posts. So nice of people to reach out. Here's to 52 and more!!!
