Successfully defended my dissertation this evening. They said that my defense was excellent. I am proud. My chair had very kind words and said she thinks I found an excellent topic to continue my research. #phdjourney #phdresearch #phdlife #phdstudent #phdone #PhD #phdone #edtech

Ugh! @DroiX_Store why am I having such issues with my order. It is telling me I owe over $160 dollars to DHL despite saying delivery would be FedEx. It was supposed to be delivered today and is now being held hostage.

Quite excited!.

Never shared my graduation photos. Became Dr. Frances on 5/22/24. Virtual graduation 8/3/24. Walked for Graduation officially 1/24/25. Best feeling ever ❤️

Since I am home this summer for the first summer ever not teaching, between caring for 3 babies 3.5 and under, I'm back to cooking. Something I haven't really been able to do as much. Nice big family meals and then some fun take aways. Have to remember to take more photos.

Was doing work in my house and was interested in @SchulerCabinets then my friend told me there are no live reps to speak to when they have issues. She got mismatched wood & things were wrong. Just wanted to warn my friends. They give a good price with @Lowes but then you are SOL.

I remember this feeling. So true!.

I am so upset with @HiltonHonors I graduate this weekend with my PhD. Booked hotel, specifically asked if there were any extra fees, Agent said no. Email this morning from hotel - $45 in valet parking daily. Tried to call and they said too bad. Won't be staying with Hilton again.

School starts today and there is so much I can use. Nothing has been purchased of my list that I haven't bought myself 😥 trying so hard to get what students need.

Teacher friends. Anyone need a place to get great books cheap?! Use my link and I promise you won't be disappointed. Great books 50-90% off normal prices.

So much needed but my dream item is a dedicated sand & water table. Working with students with autism, these sensory experiences are so important for lessons. #clearthelist #clearthelistny #autism #asd @BwcDeals.#BackToSchool #BackToSchool2024.#Back2School.
