Cold Hands, Warm Heart

After getting burned out teaching high school in a tiny Alaskan town, I have moved on to being a child advocate in a small Alaskan town. The struggles are similar, but now I can buy milk at the store.

The other side.

Devoted fans, I'm sorry that I haven't written lately, but I've been trying to get this list together. I know my last post was a list of things I was glad to have here in Washington, and now it's time to write the list of things I miss about Alaska while I'm here.

-Knowing every kid that I see in the store.

-Being able to do all my shopping through catalogs.

-Getting from one end of town to the other in less than 10 minutes.

-Not buying gasoline.

-Being able to walk to my friends' houses whenever I want.

-Wireless internet.

-My own bed.

Well, the countdown to heading for home is something like 19 days. Soon you will one again have regular posts.

    Hi Colleen,
    It sounds like the heat wave is making you miss Alaska!
