Yesterday was my birthday and I was excited to get a “Savage” card and this lovely gift.

So Kamala Harris thinks she can pick up LDS support while her campaign is strongly pushing for abortion rights. This is one of the most ridiculous strategies I have ever heard of. They really can’t be trying this.

For the last hour I have been fascinated by two bears just walking the neighborhood in Southern California

Meet a couple of Vegas Thrill players tonight and they talked me into attending their home opener on January 10th. It’s a good way to start the new year.

Nevada Reading Week is happening next month and Hickey ES has been lucky in the past to have wonderful readers such as Dr. Katie Dockweiler, Peter Guzman, Toby Yurek, Anthony J. Ruiz & Glenn Christenson. If anyone would like to read this yr to the kids, just DM me.

It is a wonderful morning as #NevadaReadingWeek starts today. We have 45 readers coming to Hickey Elementary this week. Going to be lots of fun! CCSD Trustees Hickey Elementary PTO

People have been asking why I have not been posting much about #NevadaReadingWeek at Hickey ES The reason is we have been doing it on the account of our newly created PTO (Hickey Elementary PTO). Here is a tweet about Brenda Zamora visiting on Monday.

Things that I never knew I wanted until I saw it… Mike Tyson

Today was the last day for Hickey ES principal Ronalyn Napier. Hickey Elementary PTO President Shanna Haynie & I presented her with flowers & a small gift in appreciation for her 8 years at the school. I am sad to see her retire because she cared so much about the kids. CCSD

In line at Cole's french dip getting my last French dip sandwich before they close next month.

Had a great time this week at Sunrise Mountain HS (Sunrise Mountain HS) open house talking to parents about the importance of the School Organizational Team and how it helps make decisions at the school. We had 11 parents signup to find out more info. CCSD

One of the goals for Reading Week at Hickey Elementary is to build community involvement at the school. It was great to have 3 of our readers Stephanie L. Phillips, @ALROJAS4NV12, & Nan Roecker stop by to donate supplies for our kids before school starts. Thank you for the gifts.

Had a chance to attend the Hispanics In Politics breakfast this morning and chat with CCSD Superintendent Jhone Ebert & former Henderson City Councilwoman Gerri Schroder who now works for Las Vegas Mayor Shelley Berkeley. It was a great event.

It was great to be apart of the reopening of Lundy ES in Mt. Charleston yesterday. The community fought to get the school reopened & convinced CCSD that it was the best thing for kids instead of sending them on a 50 mile bus ride to school. Lydia Dominguez 🇺🇸 Brenda Zamora

Hmmm…I live in Assembly District 29. Just saying…

Since today is my birthday, one of my biggest accomplishments this year was completing a half-marathon. As a person who does not consider themselves athletic, it was not easy to run 13 miles. Yet I put in the hard work and accomplished something I never thought was possible.
