  • Misunderstanding

    I just thought this was funny. It’s a video clip from this morning’s Leadership Launch, an annual tradition that recognizes the Sixth Grade students as leaders, since they are the “seniors” of the school. They were sitting on the left side (off camera) as the segment was being introduced by our Head of School. When Read more

  • 1 Day

    A few months ago, I let my friend, Megan talk me into applying to write for two different projects. Well, technically three, since one was a beta version of the full project. I referenced that post in April. Both of these projects feature a different writer each day. The first one features 365 points of Read more

  • CODE!

    I’ve been posting online conference sign-up sheets for the past few days, and posting all 115 on one page would require a lot of scrolling. Not ideal, especially since a lot of parents will be accessing this page from mobile devices. What I wanted was for two sections (ELD & ULD) to appear on the Read more

  • Home Page Flash

    This year, Trinity celebrates its 60th Anniversary, so the Director of Communications asked me to incorporate images created in Adobe Illustrator into the Flash movies on the home page of the site. To do this, after importing the .png files (“60 years of” and the “60 Years Trinity School” graphic logo) into Flash, I converted Read more

  • Pipes

    I’m finally getting the hang of Yahoo! Pipes…but not without an immense amount of frustration. I won’t even mention how long it took me today to successfully create this pipe for our 5th and 6th grade students’ blogs – 115 in all. All of that goes into creating this: This is the box on Trinity’s Read more

  • Fresh Your Body

    Remember this? I LOVED this commercial (2005)!! The music is awesome, and of course, you have to love the very end! ☺ Read more

  • Cherished Moments

    My former boss would probably not be very happy if I told her that I was spending part of my weekend making a dent in the almost 40,000 photos I have to delete from classroom photo galleries. ☺ (Ever since I sent her an email at 3:00 AM during my first week on the job, Read more

  • Let Nothing Surprise You

    For as long as I can remember, my mom has always said, “Don’t let anything surprise [or shock] you.” I’m still a little speechless about this one, though. This is an actual note mailed to one of Lee’s clients, after he lost his wallet. All of the other contents, including the American Express card, Visa, Read more

  • Giving Up Hope

    The title of this post sounds pretty negative, but it’s actually inspirational. June 28 has been a pretty memorable day for me since 1991. It always sticks out as “that day” for me. Not necessarily in a bad way (anymore); it will just always be significant. June 28 just means something. This year, I returned Read more

  • The Lord’s Prayer

    As my Goodreads profile will prove, it took me way too long to finish reading this book, Getting Rid of the Gorilla by Brian Jones. I started it last September, when phase 2 of “Total Forgiveness” started.  As a side note, I actually decided earlier this year (beginning of March) that this journey was no Read more
