Sunny FTW!

I love myself. Really. Because I freaking rule.

Okay, okay. Enough of tootin' the ole horn. But really, if *I* don't toot my horn, who will?? 

Today I got another project funded at Donor's Choose. That puts us at 2 for this year and it's only October 4. So to my colleague who is a hugely negative person -- I just want to say phhhtttt! She told me that Donor's Choose "wasn't worth it" because you aren't "guaranteed funding". I think it burns her up that she didn't get something that she wanted. That's all it boils down to. (Same teacher who told me National Board wasn't worth it because she didn't make the cut for certification.)

I am super excited because my project was a 1 year subscription to Reading A-Z.com and to Raz-Kids.com! The ReadingA-Z I could probably get funded through school but the Raz-Kids is awesome. I can't wait to get access to that for my little friends. So fun. Now I am just hopeful my last live project will get funded also. It expires at the beginning of November so I have my fingers crossed!

  3. Hi Sunny, sorry to leave an unrelated comment, but I couldn’t find any contact info for you. I’m wondering if you’d be interested in having a guest post on your site. I'd love to hear your thoughts on some ideas I could pitch to you! Thanks, Emily
