Kittens and a Teacher Appreciation Sale!!! (28% off)

Just wanted to update you on what I have been doing this past week, I have been fostering four little kittens.  They are so sweet and only about four weeks old.   I am fostering them for Bella Bast Cat Rescue.   So far three already have claims!   The little tabby male is going to a neighbor of mine!   I am so happy.  The grey and white girls are probably going to be adopted together by a family.  The little black and white one is still available.  His name is Stacchio (thanks for the name, Deanna Jump) because he has a little white mustache…so stinking cute!!!  I just want to cuddle them all day.  It is actually a lot of work fostering.  I try to feed them every four hours, so that means coming home every day at lunch.   Plus, I have my own two dogs and two cats.  I am trying to spread the love around!  It is so rewarding though!  They are just the sweetest, most lovable little things. 
Oliver the runt…Love him!

Happy shopping!!!

    How adorable! I've always bringing home dogs from the shelter to foster. Or I find them on the side of the road. Love fostering!

🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers ! I hav 🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers !

I have been with TpT since 2008!  I remember looking for a place where I could share my computer created resources with other teachers without having to set up my own website.  TpT was suggested.  I started off with a few Microsoft Word created resources 😬. At the time, the founder of TpT, Paul and his brother Dana, were single-handedly running things. I loved getting their newsletters.

In 2009 I was in a NY times article for TpT about who owns the copyright to teacher’s lesson plan ideas…the schools or the teachers.  This was not the article the author or editors told me I would be in, but that is another story! 

I stuck with TpT and creating resources and then in 2011, the site really took off and I met all these other amazing teacher-authors and finally met Paul in real life! 

As a single homeowner on a teachers salary, I worked nights and weekends on TpT resources just to be able to afford to live in my little house.  Then something amazing happened, my hard work paid off and I was able to get myself some breathing room.  I am so grateful for TpT for giving my life purpose and financial freedom back in those days.  Even though I am married now, I am so proud of myself for being able to own that little house (I still have it and rent it out) and buy my forever home in my dream neighborhood all by myself.

So many of you found out about TpT and so many more sellers joined.  It truly became the open market place that Paul envisioned all those years ago. 

TpT is still a big part of my life all these years (and hair colors) later.  I know when I eventually retire from teaching, I will be able to do TpT full time.  I love creating and sharing resources (880 and counting) with all of you.
