I'm going to volunteer at Smithson Craighead Academy, starting August 14th, as a music teacher one day a week for K-4th grades.

It's going to be challenging but even more rewarding!

I just got back from taking several youth to Chicago, where we participated in DOOR (Discover Opportunities for Outreach and Reflection.) The blend of hands-on action and learning about poverty issues really opened the youth's eyes, and I learned a lot as well.

I have always been very careful about my eyes. My grandfather had cataracts to the point of blindness, so I always feel better when all is good at the eye doctor.

Great info in this 5 min! And great title as well. Every time I hear that saying, I think of Dwight from The Office. When he lies to Michael about a party at a co-worker's house, Michael says et tu Dwight. Just wanted you to know that you made me laugh.
