Welcome To My World

My blog is my world of thoughts, pursuits, questions, and experiences. So relax, get a cup of tea or coffee and get to know me. I have taught at many schools, districts, and grade levels. So, I can say I do lead an interesting life.

Thing #5


What a hare raising experience this has been! I think I made a big carrot mountain out of a small herbal plant. Wow! I am getting better at this! When I finally got the picture on my blog-wow!

Yikes, I made a mistake! I put the picture in the wrong place! Well, that's how the carrot goes! As you can see, the rabbit is standing proud and not giving up. All week long I have faced one thing after another. I wanted to run like a scared rabbit, but I decided to take a deep breath, and eat my carrot of life with grace and dignity.


What I am finding out is there are adventures as I make my way to the Wizard of Blog! I took a detour and the Wicked Witch of the West wanted me to quit, but I looked at my target Emerald City!

Thing #4

Looking at my blogs, wow, I actually did the tasks(things)in order; however, the entries I made were sporadic because I did not do them in order. You know I feel like a lost student in Jaime Escanlante's calculus class and screaming "Ese, I'd rather be making a shoe shine box!"

BUT I am getting better at this. I am the type that has to have all directions printed so I can feel that I still have some type of control. Moreover, library2play is a rather cool thing, and who knows, I might meet a munchkin or two along the way while I catch up with Dorothy and Toto in the land of Blog. I certainly don't want to end up in the clutches of the Wicked Witch of the West(quiting library2 play); I would rather be singing "somewhere over the rainbow" as I learn how to meet my goals and learn to relax and enjoy this part of my new horizons.

Registering my blog was interesting. I was fumbling around as usual, but I did some changes to the layout of my blog, and rearranged a few things. This part I really did like--"jumping lizzards!"

Thing #1

As you can see, my entries are not in sequential order. I enjoyed going back to my first attempt at blogging, and decided to continue my journey to the Land of Blog by setting my sails to enjoyment, learning, and seeking new adventures.

This time I will complete this journey, and meet the Great Wizard of Blog! Since given this new pair of ruby red slippers, I will enjoy my travels on the yellow brick road without the hinderance of misguided calendar engagements.(Only I know what the afore-mentioned means)

This new genre of technology will change my schemata and build new avenues of cognition with each task that is outlined in this present course of learning. In other words, I will follow the yellow brick road, and meet head-on The Wicked Witches of the West with new courage and strength while I add comfort to my ruby red slippers.

I did begin with Task #1, and forgot to write in my blog. So as you can see, the number of entries are "off" somewhat. But what the heck, I do not need a strong constitution to complete each task. Enjoy my trip to Blog!

Thing #3

Wow, this task was quite unusual for me to do! I DID IT! I feel like a radiant rabbit that has found an unlimited supply of veggies! This library2play is really not hard, but it is true about getting out of the box. I am getting better at this as I make this paradigm shift to the world of blogging.

As Yoda from Stars Wars once told Luke Skywalker, "Do or do not; there is no try." This is quite the same way because the more I get into this blogging aspect of library2play, I am learning more about myself and my learning style which comprises of letting go and becoming something better.

Moreoever, like the bit of wisdom I read yesterday, "True champions are the ones that failed, BUT got up again and again and made the road to success a better one."

Thing #2

So far so good! I think this was the easiest thing to do. The commencement of library2 play sounds so easy, and it is if you don't make a moutain out of a mole hill. It's new and fun, but I need to relax and enjoy the fanfair as I reach each task with brillance and energy.

As a famous icon once said, "You'll never reach the palace talking like a peasant." Righty-O! I have to relax and smell the coffee and enjoy my new journey to the Lang of Blog, and be able to meet the Wizard of Blog by continuing to blog, write, and maintain this new course in my life.

More later, same bat time, same blog channel!
