My Top Five Facts:
- I love coffee. You can read about that here.
- My own kids are 15 and 7. That’s a big age gap, but they get along.
- I’m a Packers fan, born and raised in Wisconsin.
- I love to wear nerdy English teacher shirts to work.
- My favorite color is orange. I used to hate orange. I think I picked it up after I turned 40 and started using reading glasses.
Hi, Monica! I am a music and piano teacher from Romania, just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your blog and your witty insights. It’s nice to meet a fellow teacher with similar “inner experiences” who also manages to put a fun spin on things.
