Teacher Week: Who

I am linking up with Blog Hoppin’ for our annual Teacher Week!  

I have been blogging for quite some time.  You probably already know that I love shoes, animals, and my blogging friends.  Here are a few more things about me.

I have enjoyed spending time with my nephew and friends this summer. Um, my Tory bag looks bigger than me!  
My hair color goes from light to dark, depending on how much highlighting I get.  I was pretty blond in college.  I went to SUNY Binghamton (Binghamton University) and studied Literature and Rhetoric. I am still friends with my roommate and she is coming to visit next week.  I am so excited. 
Some more shoes and bags.  I bought these on my shopping trip in Vegas:
My blog friends:

My pets: 
Sophie, a Havanese 8 years old

Niles, a Long Haired Chihuahua almost 15 years old

Greta, 5 years old

Ella, 6 years old (with her summer haircut)
These were my last foster kittens:
This is where I go boating!  It was a big boater meet up.

 Thanks for stopping by!  Don’t forget to go to Blog Hoppin’ to link up and read more.

    Numbers 5 and 6 made me smile. I haven't been boating for almost 20 years! I love it, but never do it. Have a great year!

    Love the pictures of your furbabies – Mine are too big to let sleep in the bed all night (there'd be no room for hubs and I)… I also have a black thumb. My sister comes to visit me every summer to clean out and re-mulch my front garden (the house came with it).
    Thanks for sharing!

    I also enjoy Netflix while prepping. I LOVED The Killing and then worked my way through Supernatural and now I am on Jericho for the second time. It was great getting to know you!

    Had to laugh at the pets in your bed! Same thing happens at my house. Love your cats! We have one tabby- they are great cats. Love all your pictures with your blogger friends! And the boat! Wow! Thanks for sharing so much!

Honor 9/11 in a kid friendly way with this picture Honor 9/11 in a kid friendly way with this picture book about a fireboat that helps put out the fires at the towers. 
As a NYer, I remember that day well.  I knew people who passed away in the towers.  I knew people who have passed away since then through 9/11 related illness.  Sadly, my sister-in-laws father was one of them. 

If you want the link to this book and other Patriot Day resources, comment LINK below and I will dm you.
