Eeek! I’m so excited and scared!

I am so excited about this blog, but so scared at the same time. You see, I have always been more of a private person, unless you really knew me. Taking a risk like this and putting myself out there is the exact opposite of how I would be described by those who know me best. That is one of the many reasons I am doing this though.

When I was trying to decide what to write a blog about, I asked some friends and family on Facebook what I should write about. I mean, that’s what you do when you can’t make up your mind right? Go and make a post on Facebook! Lol. Anyway, I had a lot of different answers, but they all seemed to have the same theme. My life. So, here I am!

Over the last few years I have been working to open up and let people in. You know, really let people to get to know me, but I have not been too great at it. Over the last few months, I have been trying to apply some of the things I read in a book. I really got to know some things about myself, which have helped me to reach out to others. The really crazy thing is that my students have even noticed a change. I speak to other adults in the building a lot more now.

Here is my hope with this blog. You read something here that will ring true with you to help you get through something, fix something, realize you’re not alone, etc. If that doesn’t happen or you don’t need that, then maybe you’ll read something that makes you laugh. Trust me. Some of the things I have done or have had happen still make me laugh or shake my head.
