5 Tips to Survive Hotel Life During a PCS
You’ve arrived at your new duty station. You settle into the hotel room you booked weeks ago, and by settle in, I mean you unpacked your suitcases and totes.
You filled the fridge with the few groceries you just picked up and gave the meager remains of the travel snacks a designated shelf.

How Can You Say Thank You?

Grace and Grit
“All the while, I have been running in varying degrees. Even when I’m not running consistently, I’ve always considered myself a runner. It is how I define myself. Running has always been a friend to me, and I’m grateful for the ability to run.”
Teacher Appreciation & Summer Reading
Yesterday as I was scrolling through Facebook, I noticed a lot of my former coworkers had shared a post regarding Teacher Appreciation Week. The post asked for updates from parents or former students, stating something along the lines of, “If I ever taught you or your child, this year for Teacher Appreciation Week please share what you (or your child) are up to now.” I, of course, read through some of the comments. And on one friend’s comments, a mom posted an update that her son was now a rescue swimmer in the Navy and included a photo.
