Range of Light

Range of Light, an album by S. Carey on Spotify

S. Carey lyrics are just....

I was wondering if you'd be my wife be the compass in my rugged life come as quick, and leave until you will, you will, you will all mine I was hoping you would walk with me down the aisles, your light gathering. leave your child with legacy we lay, we lay, we lay all day

A bill is being drafted that would end annual testing requirements. What would schools do without them?

Sweet little yellow-haired girl sat down in front of me this week. So shy she could barely look me in they eye, hid cautiously behind those lovely locks. I tried to warm her up before the testing began "do you have any pets?". Sweet babe looked up "yea, we gots some ah' them doggies n horsies. I like to ridin them horsies". Sweet girl was in first grade, rural Texas city. In with me because she wasn't keeping up in school. Let's expand on that.

How would you like to speak in front of an entire class or to a teacher when you still don't have your verb tenses down? When you look at a sentence and can read the second and fourth word. You probably wouldn't like that too much. But as you can guess, the teachers are tired, the other kids are moving faster, and everyone is expecting my sweet yellow head to just catch up. 

Well everyone, she will. But she needs more help than the rest and she needs more attention and she should NOT be left behind or kicked to the side because she doesn't meet the milestones we have arbitrarily chosen. 

This article provides great alternatives to help more little yellow heads. We have to push to keep the future great.

January 15

January 15, a playlist by 121765483 on Spotify

Goal of the New Year: make a new playlist each month (thanks K). The flow might not be great and the sounds may not compliment but these playlists aren't made for that. I want to play a month and have the songs bring memories and discoveries. So only follow if you give a shit about Taylor's memories OR you like good jams. :*

Grab a hot drink and a blanket and stay cozy with Brandi Carlile, The Barr Brothers, Sharon Van Etten, and more.

thank you JG, perfect night for a brew and cold jamz

KUTX TILL I DIE

Y'ALL. KUTX 89.9 is my jam shit sesh daily in ATX. Like even when I'm not in the car I'm checking their playlists and streaming from my kitchen table. Anywho, these DJs are all so unique and have such a fun and personal style in their music choices and they made a 2014 top album list! I'm agreeing so hard with so many choices and also discovering what I missed in 2014 (goddamn good year in music, amiright?)
