After one heck of a rough few weeks @tmorello gives exactly the kind of commentary to remind me of my “why”. That the best disruption occurs from within. Thank you @WoodyGuthrieCtr for an amazing night ❤️

Drive to @walmartAMP to see @STPBand on their Jubalee Tour - hey @CainsBallroom , check out the tee the drummer from Live is wearing. #tulsa

I’ve been in Education 20 years. Then last decade with @BASchools at @BAHSTigers & best welcome back speaker in all 20 years! #IBelieve #BATID

What are the odds? A metropolitan area of roughly 8 million people, I now live nearly 400 miles away… & I a woman’s name that stands out in my memories as a mama to two really fabulous students from my early teaching years. Jean, my heart shatters for your family 💔

Boo weather. Gremlin & I were looking forward to @TPROfficial & one more round of @Halestorm before it’s back to classes, but lightening + outdoor venues are a no-go. Until our next chance! #mommyandmetime #girlsofrockandroll

Interesting. Some call my office “busy” (adults). More (mostly Ss) point out the unusual/ask Qs about items - 1,000 paper cranes gift from Atomic Survivors, pic of my dogs, an award/diploma. I do lean to “value/different” > thematic. Hrm…

I’ve l written letters for 100% scholarship, but this? This is amazing for how it targets specific kids & supports the student in more than financial ways. If Tulsa area Univ aren’t already doing something similar, they should! @oksde @okstate source.wustl.edu/2022/05/col…

Round 2 of 3 to see @LZZYHALE with Gremlin 1 - STL, Tulsa & again to wrap up summer with @taylormomsen ❤️ Not going to lie - told Gremlin she could have Dad’s ticket if the grades came up (was planning to take the kid all along 😉).

Tues, I interviewed. I was distracted, rocked from a call, walked into what I SHOULD have expected …but was disappointed in seeing b/c I wanted ...different. I wanted “walk the talk” & got tradition. So, I knew as walked in, it would be “no”. Today - this. ❤️ #reset #mywhy

This. I’ll repeat my own version: you can train for skills, you can’t train for personality. You are building a team, a family when you hire. The wrong personality can be a cancer to culture.

Taking the Gremlins to their first arena concert & it being two boss female lead bands warms this mama’s rock loving heart 😍 #BABbands @LZZYHALE is a particular fav of Gremlin 1

JJ is 1,000% the real deal when it comes to improving #schoolculture. He’s always said, “It’s tough to hate someone whose story you know.” & his events are built around that - learning each other’s stories & making connections. #edchat Www.Ignite2Unite.com – at Broken Arrow, OK

When you are far enough into research that the articles start referencing each other, you start to feel like you’ve hit a Twilight Zone level of the grad school experience. Also #heyIknowthatguy @dankrutka and crew moments – at Broken Arrow, OK

Hey, hey! It’s @MrsHGoodenough on @TalkinSS to talk about @NationalHistory ! Check it out: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas… @OKCSS #ncss #podcast @CHitch94 @BASchools @ScottPadway @cheffernan75 – at Broken Arrow, OK

Yadi is not thrilled that Mom is pulling out the “blue bag” since it means I’ll be going through research instead of snuggling after work. Chapter 1 needs sending off for approval by next week #futuredrpresley #almostdone

Tulsa pals - our friend Bristol is opening his BBQ truck! Chef and I are VERY picky about our BBQ (we met about the time his ribs won a National championship) & Country Q BBQ is good stuff. Follow them on Instagram & Facebook to find where they will be!

Hey @BAHSTigers Seniors - you had us laughing this morning! We’ve moved some of your tape and signs to Senior Office in B - come get a pic!
