About Leslie Roberts Clingan

I am an aspiring blogger and children's author, wife, mother, daughter, sister, - in-law, responsible pet owner and recently retired elementary school librarian. I hope to figure out the next chapter of my life as I transition from crazy, busy work world onto totally idle retirement and now to something in-between.

    I want justice for Danny and for him to be allowed to return to work.

      Amen! I think very possibility the district will release him to return to a school in January. Maybe not Moye but somewhere. Bless his heart. Please tell him hello. Merry Christmas to you, dear one. Hope this new year is better for all of us. Love you!

    my only wish is health and happiness for everyone I know and love. Not too much to ask, right?!

      Had to laugh! I just figured out that you and Abby Marie are one!! Had to check with Deena, first, though. I just kept thinking that Abby Marie looked so much like Lana. So glad to have met both of YOU! I think you and I may become pretty great friends this year. So excited about a new year, new opportunities and experiences. Yay! Please consider joining me for the FOCUSed15 Challenge (check my FB page or read about it here tomorrow). We could blog about it back and forth.

Hello!

graphic tee

In what felt like the blink of an eye, I have gone from full-time wife to my sweet husband, hands-on mom to my two beautiful daughters and elementary school librarian to a retired, empty nester with lots of time on my hands. Join me on my journey to rediscover who I am. Glad you are here...
