Monday, October 16, 2023 I signed up for a media job today at a middle school. Our district cut the media specialist positions out of middle school a few years ago, because teaching kids how to research appropriately on the internet, how to write a research paper, and stuff like that was apparently not important

Sunday, October 15, 2023 Thank you to everyone who has reached out in the past week to offer information and support. It has been SO helpful to hear from real people about real lives being LIVED with diabetes. I think we can all agree that my “educator” was not the right fit for me and
