Ending a meeting early lets everyone live, for a few minutes, in the magic akin to an unexpected snow day when you were a kid.

“…less a roadmap to best practices in instructional design, and more an invitation into a learning community that trusts faculty to engage thoughtfully with the complexities of course design.” So excited to read these share with my own ID team. hybridpedagogy.org/books/
Said goodbye today to one of the best 13 year olds around. Rest in fluff, love, power Posey girl. ❤️ #dogsforlife

Today we celebrate 11 years of ALL the fashion, snacks, toys and most of all…joy. Dogs are the best. Always.

just spent a delightful 20 minutes looking back through dissertation post-it note pics to send/help out a friend. note to self: recording process feels kinda lame amorphous in process but SO helpful once you're done to trace back the journey
Things that have happened in the last month: bought a house, sold a house, moved a house, got braces, and had a tooth extracted. Champagne is clearly necessary.

proudest weekend accomplishment: deep cleaning repainting windows so they now look (almost) new. yep, moving to a 109 yr old house is next level adulting.

in positive news….today, unlike yesterday, I managed to get dressed without tangling my braces in my clothing. related: when you have wires in your mouth, jumpsuits are even more your besties.

yesterday I got braces on my teeth. pretty sure adding “obsessive oral hygiene” to my current pandemic levels of “obsessive hand washing” means 1/3 of my day will now be spent at my sink.

Things you rediscover whilst packing ALL the things: your salad-plate sized Calgary Stampede belt buckle given to you by a dear friend. This is why moving periodically actually IS worth the stress.
recipe for a nighttime dream sequence that rivals any trippy flashback movie montage: 1 day sorting old photos & letters plus 2 glasses red wine. moving is the weirdest…but in a good way.
Packing all one’s things when moving house is basically packing for a very long trip but with more cookware and large art.

Community from all over the world, (pics of) snacks, and discussions of co-creation, care, equity, and hope…yep, officially excited to go to #MYfest22 which feels like summer camp but w/more care less bugs myfest.equityunbound.org
