Ever feel like you are talking to yourself?
I feel that way in class sometimes. Don’t we all?
As I start typing a blog post sometimes, I feel like I’m talking to myself. Then, there are moments that remind me that incredible people are listening, well, reading.
Sometimes, it is a great comment. Sometimes, the reminder comes as an email. My favorite moment where I felt connected was last year during the Super Bowl.
My niners were in the Super Bowl, and there was a TPT sale. I was at my friend Sarah’s house watching the game with her family. I told them that I had wished for cha-chings on the TPT app during a niners touch down.
I looked down as they were looking good and realized my phone had died. I looked at my husband and asked for his phone. He laughed and said, “Do you really think someone will sit there and wait for a touchdown?” If there was, I wanted to know.
I downloaded the TPT app onto his phone and logged in just as the niners reached the end zone. Sure enough, when the touchdown came, there was a cha-ching. Well, actually there was a unique combo cha-ching sound of multiple sales at once.
One of the coolest memories ever. I couldn’t believe there were multiple people out there willing to help one of my silly wishes come true.
I was thinking about that tonight and realized the Super Bowl is coming up and there is no sale. I went and set up one for my store for traditions sake. It got me thinking. It really has been a long time since I blogged. If there is ever a time to remember that I’m not really talking to myself, it is Super Bowl time.
So, I’m back.
This year has been incredible so far. This school year or this calendar year? Both, actually.
I look forward to telling you about it.

Look closely. See that dolphin jumping out of the water? I was lucky enough to start 2014 swimming with it. |
