So… those of you who know me will totally appreciate my recent CLM (Career Limiting Move). My colleagues have threatened to blog this, so I figured I would beat them to the punch. So here’s my humbling story…. Discovery Education sponsored an incredible VIP cocktail reception at NSTA, so I invited a few of our
Streamer Gets Caught by Hospital Staff
I just spent an incredible 3 days in Florida for the FETC conference. Wow… now that is one GIGANTIC state conference… so big it’s larger than some "National Conferences" I was able to spend 2 days in our Discovery booth, where unitedstreaming fans and evangelists always come by and cheer us on. But Wednesday, I
ETC – Modesto's Best Kept Secret
Shhhhhhhhh! You haven’t heard about the Educational Technology Conference? Over four hundred educators from central California may not want you to know about this "little" conference developed and sponsored by CTAP Region 6 and CCCUE. It is no surprise that anyone would want to keep this gem to themselves…it featured "Techno Icons" Mike Lawrence (keynote
Died and Gone to Hershey
It’s official… I have visited the “Sweetest Place on Earth” Hershey, PA. And yes… the air really does smell like chocolate. My favorite the “Hershey Outlets” a woman’s dream come true… chocolate and shopping. But if you can believe it, I am actually burnt out on chocolate. I will say I have always loved Pennsylvania,
Let it Snow… Let it Snow… Let it Snow
Wowie! I woke up to a complete blanket of white. I got a few weird looks when I started taking pictures of my car, so I refrained from making snow angels. Talk about beautiful. A big thank you to my good friend Colleen, who provided me with a perfect scarf for my adventures. I

Spanish Class in Ceres
La Morenita is the place Ceres teachers hold their Spanish Class. The subjects covered… enchiladas, tacos, salsa… and we even managed to fit in some talk of technology. A BIG thanks, to DEN member Susan for organizing a great dinner with the unitedstreaming POWERUSERS of Ceres School District. Another HUGE thanks to Carey, Supervisor of
From Tickets to Tights…. My day with Mark!
I was finally able to take another journey up north to visit DEN Member Mark from Ceres School District this past week. What an adventure I had with him. In fact, so far it’s my best travel story yet. When I arrived early for my site visits, Mark and I decided to meet Susan, another
The Ellipse
Oh Cali Tree… Oh Cali Tree… How lovely are your branches! So… in between bundling up, marathon meetings, and my escapades on the ice we were able to visit The Ellipse. This is a circular park, nestled between the White House and the Washington Monument that is home to the National Christmas Tree. The added
Skating…Caroling… and Laughing all the way!
Well, first I must begin by thanking you all for sending me all sorts of warm wishes during my excursion to Maryland. It must have helped because it actually warmed up to 40 degrees! But I am sure what you will find most amusing was that I actually went ice-skating in an outdoor rink! You’ll
