Sometimes thinking sounds like talking - consider adding meaningful and plentiful opportunities to reflect. #fcpsPOGPOL #sometimesitsbehindtheobvious

Thanks, Nishi and Abbey! Librarians are POG leaders - now we will focus on making it visible!

So true! Though I love physical books, it is not cheating to listen to an audiobook. Long before we had books, stories and knowledge were passed down through oral tradition and folklore.

We are making final preparations for our students’ return! This is a shot of our brand new library! Looking good! ⁦@FrostMSLibrary⁩ ⁦@FrostMSVA⁩ ⁦⁦@frostmsvapta⁩ #ONEFrost

@TechieSuzie 100% feel that gut punch - It's Key-sha not Keh-sha!

💯& this goes for the colleagues in our lives as well. My name is Suz-on (like #FCPSOn) and it is a punch to the gut when people consistently mispronounce it. And, I’ll give you a lot of slack & reminders at first too. Ss shouldn’t HAVE to advocate on this one #FCPSsbts. 1/2

Looks like, sounds like New Librarians @FCPS_LIS # levelup

@malnsol @DrKetchledge Lol!! Yep!

@quest4inquiry @DrKetchledge

Quietly, I defended my dissertation 4/11 - got the green light from the Dean's office yesterday & THANKS to @DrKetchledge, I am ready to #celebrate this #PhinisheD journey! Who got this hat better? I know your gen if you know who the toy man is- 🤣😆 #odugrad #Classof2022

@r_schnabel_ I waited 1 hour 40 min no one answered- graduation tomorrow - leaving in 2.5 hours to get there. I did not receive my regalia from @herffjones "in time for my scheduled event".

Things I did while on hold with herff jones: Literally everything but speak to a rep

@blaiseschaefer @herffjones I made it to PhD and my @herffjones regalia did not make it - they created a label yesterday, package still there, I leave 2nite, graduation 2morrow 😡- I am literally borrowing someone elses. Ordered March 23.

not really sure how there can be any update besides “your order is shipping” you useless doorknobs at @herffjones my graduation is NEXT WEEK. you literally have a single job, like this is the ONLY THING you do.

Hello Educators! You can enter for the chance to win any two of my books that you'd like. Simply retweet and make sure you follow me. A winner will be randomly selected tomorrow. Look for giveaways all week long! And thank you for being so incredible! @SimonKIDS #thankyouteachers

@GCMLibrary @DrKetchledge Krissy!!! You and my cousin (who was probably sitting beside me watching) are the only people who've known him, lol!! And also the Care Bears, giggle! Now I don't feel like I had some sort of alternate cartoon situation going on 😆🤣

@DrKetchledge I'm having a dress up party, LOL!! You have no idea how much your kindness means to me in this moment!! Apparently I didn't realize how much that regalia meant to the end of the story!!

@quest4inquiry So excited for you! Enjoy every minute - you earned it 😁

Question from a pronoun frustrated educator: “But what is a gender neutral way of greeting a room of students?” Me: “Hello everyone” 🫠

We are ready for Poem in Your Pocket Day!
