March 2019 was my last post on this blog.
And how life has changed!
2019 when I last wrote, I was working as a school principal and about ready to go on the trip of a lifetime - to Italy with my beloved, Lee. We took the trip in June and it was amazing. The best trip EVER! Here are life events since that time:
- Travel to Italy on grand trip!
- Lee diagnosed with Glioblastoma brain cancer
- COVID hits USA
- 4 types of chemo
- 3 brain surgeries
- 30 days radiation
- Immunotherapy
- Trips to UCSF for treatment
- Home therapy
- Hospice
- Lee passed away March, 2021
- Lee’s mom died
- Lee’s dad died
- Cycling vacation to BryceCanyon/Zion
- Left principal position - stress of hospice and Lee’s death just too much to handle
- Brett moved to Texas with his family
- Lauren moved to Fair Oaks with her family
- Sammy (dog of 16 years) died
- New job
- Remodeled bathroom
- Remodeled guest room (where Lee’s hospice room was)
- 3 different bikes
- Changed job this year (same company)
- 3 grandkids and 1 more on the way
- Cycling vacation to Italy
I never thought so much would happen all within 4 years. FOUR YEARS!! Good grief. No wonder I feel worn out. That’s a lot to handle in four years’ time.
So, this blog will be taking a turn. It use to be all about teaching. But I’m not teaching any more and it is no longer my focus. In fact, I’ve left teaching a few times to go into administrative work and the past few times, returned to teaching. But no more. I can proudly say I’m done teaching and am happy to move on.
I hope to write about life lessons. You see, I’ve learned more in these past 4 years than I have in…well, I don’t know how long.
