I looked to my left and to my right and then jumped out of bed. As I plodded through… Continue reading Stacey’s Slice of Life Story: WAKE UP!

Stacey’s SOLS: Voting

Showing-off My "I Voted" Sticker Originally uploaded by teachergal I woke up at 4:37 a.m. Nope, don't have to be up yet, I thought. I turned over and attempted to go back to bed. By 4:40 a.m., I realized it wasn't going to happen. I rolled over, grabbed my iTouch, and started checking my e-mail… Continue reading Stacey’s SOLS: Voting

Ruth’s SOLS: Shopping Fools.

On Saturday morning the little guy wanted to join me on some errands.  I relented.  Even though I was looking forward to some time alone, just browsing through stores, I chose him instead.   I told myself, Someday you'll have plenty of time to browse through stores, but you won't always have a little boy who… Continue reading Ruth’s SOLS: Shopping Fools.

Stacey’s SOLS: De-icing

I opened the door from my apartment building, dragging my granny cart behind me. I inhale deeply, breathing-in the crispness of the autumn morning. I look around me and smile. I'm surrounded by golds, reds, and oranges: the colors of my favorite season. I walk down the pathway to my car and notice a thick… Continue reading Stacey’s SOLS: De-icing
