As the Sun Sets on October – an October Boyack Family Report

So... I am on a roll getting myself back into my blogging groove... three days in a row where I blog about something more than my gratitude journal. October kept us super busy. I kept busy teach theatre classes. My World Theatre classes made masks, finished their "Greek Chorus" assignment, and started their movement unit… Continue reading As the Sun Sets on October – an October Boyack Family Report

Yesterday I went to see a sweet production of "It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play" at Western Oregon University. They open for a short run tonight. Their sweet show ends this weekend.

To experience the magic… Continue reading Mixing the Magic of Christmas and Live Theatre – WOU It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play

Warrior Wednesday

Choose Being Kind

It's been awhile since I have written something for Warrior Wednesday, however, I came across this little quote and decided that it may be time to resume. There is far too much contention in the world. Proving that you are right and that someone else is wrong is not really a Warrior mentality. In fact,… Continue reading Choose Being Kind

I love this quote! I am always learning something. I love learning new things. I've had some hard times, some hard days. Looking back, I know those are the times, the days, I have learned the most. And boy, do I have limitations! My body size often limits me. However, I have learned so much… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 345

We have been "vacationing" for the past 3 days. I use the word loosely. It was more like a stay-cation. We tried to stay out of the office/ off computers and just did nothing. It was nice. For the past few years John and would go to the coast. But John wanted to stay home… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 341, Day 342, Day 343, Day 344

I am grateful we had the opportunity to take the girls to see great pieces of art that cause people to talk and to remember what is most important. I am grateful my girl...

Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 337

Amen! I also survived my first official observation. I have never had someone watch my teach in a public school setting. I won't know how I did until tomorrow. That's when I meet the principle and she let's me know if I can keep doing what I am doing. Fingers crossed. I am grateful for… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 337
