My writing projects…

Posted in General Information by Melissa Morris on May 17, 2012

These days, my writing projects are very educationally-focused.  While travel writing is still a dream and passion of mine, my other passion – teaching – is demanding front and center stage.

If you’d like, you can keep up with them on my blog that is designed for students and parents: http://missmorrisblog.wordpress.com/ or this blog that is designed for fellow educators:  http://todayinschool.wordpress.com/.

The summer promises time to travel (both in and out of state), so there will be plenty more to write about then!

Six women.  Six laptops.  Six drinks.

Ladies Night Out took on an entirely new meaning last night.

Thanks to the wonders of modern technology, six tired mommies logged on to their Google accounts and met virtually to chat and share tips, suggestions and laughs.  Despite a few technical glitches among the group, we spent the better part of 45-minutes discussing morning routine madness and how we cope.

Trying out the reblog feature here on Wordpress with this great post by fellow NJ blogger and NSNJ contributor, CC Fowler. CC is my role model these days because she is so consistent in her postings, despite being so, so very busy!  Looks like I can't order the photos around in my post.  Be sure to check out CC's blog, CentralJerseyWorkingMoms, for the rest of this post and many, many more great posts.   ~Melissa The Jersey Girl

Today, I saw my first hockey game.  The Trenton Titans played in their home stadium, Sun National Bank Center.  (They didn’t win, but it was a great game and a fun time.)

Post game, at 7:00, the Philadelphia Revolution (a league for 15-20 year olds) have taken over the ice and are playing a game of their own.

7:00~1/29/12~Advice from Norah Marler

Lately, New Jersey media, including WCTC radio, have been buzzing about a new book called No More Dating Pigs — You Are What You Date. The book is written by New Jersey writer, Norah Marler.

I received a copy a few weeks ago, and made curious because of the title, it moved up to the top of my reading list. I’m just getting a chance to take a look at it now…full review will be on NSNJ soon.

You might have to take my word on this, but there are stars in my 7:00 picture tonight.

It’s definitely cold out there, but the sky is clear and quite beautiful over Franklin Park.
