I've been using flonase for me, nasalcort for Noah and Astelyne for Grace. Our meds are complicated.

The twins school had something called the Lincoln 500, where teams of 1, 2, 3rd graders worked with older kids on a tricycle race. The whole school was out watching, even though it's 96 degrees. Insane.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, I was never allergic in the midwest. I thought people were supposed to come out here to avoid the allergens! I blame all the transplanted midwesterners who come out here and garden like they're back home.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, that's a good crackpot theory.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

It works for me, as far as crackpot theories go.

Oh, that reminds me, Strix, I don't remember where you asked me, but yes, tour will include Lenexa. So I could conceivably schedule to meet up with you if you're around. It'd be the 28th.

It's not a crackpot theory. It's the truth.

It can be both.

Silly midwesteners!

I found out today that I was selected as one of my district's Teachers of the Year. Which is awesome and exciting.

Now I have to submit paperwork to the county to be considered for one of the county's Teachers of the Year. Then if they select me further, I will be considered for the California Teacher of the Year and then national.

Essentially, it's like a beauty pageant but not for beauty but teaching.
