Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 535

I was all set to write my blog yesterday when I got a call from Lilli at 9:40... "Mom, I'm at Madrona Park and I broke my collar bone." John and I got into the truck and drove down to the park. It was clear that she had, indeed, broken her collar bone when she… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 535

The December Report

I guess it is time to play a little catching up. I had a busy month, complicated by a change in medication over the holiday season, and it has most definitely thrown me for a loop. I haven't been feeling well, haven't been sleeping well, and so the doctor decided to try something new. I… Continue reading The December Report

Wrapping up November

The week of Thanksgiving everyone had the vacation time... sort of. I still had to work on Monday and Tuesday. It was parent teacher conference. Only 5 families stopped by to see me, all at the round table open forum type conferences. All of my scheduled conferences didn't come in. John took me to get… Continue reading Wrapping up November

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

Tradition! Lessons Learned Working on Fiddler on the Roof

A highlight in the 2018-19 school year was working on Fiddler on the Roof. This show is a dream show for my co-worker, Jeff. The trick is, you need a Tevye. And we had a Tevye!

More Catch up – Family Fun in September

Okay... I have a little more time today to catch things up. So here is the September report. I know. You are in shock. As the summer ended we attended the last summer concert at the river front park. It was a Micheal Jackson Tribute concert. The guy was pretty good, even if the people… Continue reading More Catch up – Family Fun in September

Area 51 by the Great Dolvondo

Here is the latest song by my nephew, Marshal. He is getting better and better at this song writing thing. My teenager hasn't stopped listening to it since I introduced it to her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNoBDDPpEE8

July 2019 Wrap up

Holy cow! I made it to the end of July. July is actually my least favorite month of the year because I am so tired that I can't think straight. July was sup busy.

Graduation Week at the Boyack House

Wow! It has been one exhausting week. Seriously. I need to rethink my life. Physically, I am not able to keep up with myself. It's a bummer because my brain is running a million miles per minute, but my knees, ankles, and hips can't do it. I know it would help if I were a… Continue reading Graduation Week at the Boyack House
