Recently, I was having a conversation with my therapist and I was telling her that I do not know who the “Real Chelle” is sometimes. I have lived my life as a people pleaser, and there are times I will agree with a person just to be agreeing with them. For example, if I was [...]

Wow! It’s been a LONG time since I have posted on this. I stopped because someone had hacked into my site, and corrupted it with some type of virus that warned people from coming to my site. You would have thought I posted something bad in it. It was actually pretty discouraging because I loved [...]

матрациI have been away so long, I am not sure if anyone is coming by to read this anymore, but I will post something anyway. I am doing well. Been busy, but who hasn’t, right? I should confess that if I really wanted to, I could post, but after teaching all day at school, then [...]

I think it is about to explode! Taking a nap – I am so about to fall asleep in my classroom right now. Thankfully, the students have not noticed yet. What I am going to make for dinner tonight – I have no clue. What is the next point on this list – Haha, I [...]
