Introduction | Some call it procrastination. I call call it extreme time management. I'm a professor in education attempting to think through ways to make schools better places for kiddos, teachers, and caregivers while also attempting not to completely lose my sanity in the storm that is academia. I do lots of things: read, thrift, write, knit, crochet, sometimes sew. I take photos, although they're not very good. I try to be busy and not always busy with things that should take up my time. Those are the things you'll probably find here. |
