Path to Authorship
Path to AuthorshipI have set a personal goal to create a workbook designed to support children in the foster system. The workbook will focus on offering guidance and practical tools to help them navigate their unique challenges. Reflecting on my experiences over the past two years, I realize that, against all odds, I was able […]
I’m Thankful I can Work in my Yard Again
This is the first summer since I was made extremely ill by the Mineral County School District. Last summer I spent the entire time trying to rebuild my lung capacity so that I could walk further than the edge of my yard. As trying as that was, I am glad I did it. This year […]
I am Looking Forward to Summer
Last summer I was just thankful to be alive and recovering. This year I have finally for the most part gotten my health back. I don’t intend to just sit at home and pace my yard to try and get my lung capacity back. I am not sure what my summer entails yet. What I […]
It is Time to Move Forward
When I started this blog, it was meant to serve a number of different functions. The primary function was I had advice from a licensed professional that felt putting my school trauma online would help me move forward. I have found instead that it just keeps me angry.

Why I Decided to Sue the District
Many may wonder why I would sue the Mineral County School District. The reality is that it is not a decision that I took lightly. I had two counselors flat-out tell me that my path forward in my life is actually through justice. It is crazy that I had numerous counselors unable to help me […]
What is a Fiscal Note

Fear is Personal
I am glad that I took a week off this year. I was able to reflect on how much progress I had made. Looking back, I remain amazed at all the hurdles I overcame. I have a long way to go, but I can’t even see where I started. This last week I reflected on […]
Trolls in the Basement?
I once had a claim with someone that claimed the above. It was a very wild claim to try and process. The person with the renter’s insurance had a whole list of claims about what basement trolls were up to while she slept. You would think that trolls in the basement in itself would be […]
Real Conversations I had With Diane
Many people may be inclined to believe that I dislike Dirty Diane for erroneous reasons. The reason for this blog is to dispel anyone’s belief of why I fiercely opposed Dirty Diane Rodriguez. She was the most unempathetic person I have ever met in my fantastic career. I took a lot of issues with Diane […]
I am Going to Start Adding Variety to my Posts
I feel like I have really beaten into the ground just how negatively the Mineral County School District affected the rest of my life, and how it has an impact on an entire generation of kids. The reality is that I need to also be respectful that the current Superintendent has inherited a lot of […]
