2020 Goal Reflection

This is my final reflection on how I did with my 2020 goals overall. It's a gross understatement to say that this year turned everyone's lives upside down. Everyone I know dealt with deep hardshipContinue reading

As the school year starts in 2 weeks I’m definitely going to miss meeting my students on the first day but even more excited to get to spend the next few months bonding with this bebe. #jisforjourney #goodmorning #babyfuri #empanadas #breakfast #maternityleave #summerisalmostover @wildbird #babywearing

Thank you to my momma for keeping @thefuriosity , baby & myself sane & alive these past 2 weeks. We miss you already! #jisforjourney #babyfuri #momsarethebest #newborn #2weekspostpartum #2weeksold

Just spending my days loving on this little man. ••• #jisforjourney #newbornbaby #babyfuri @beaheartdesign @tadpoleshome

In case you’re wondering what @thefuriosity & I have been up this week!! 🤰➡️🏨➡️👶👨‍👩‍👦 #baby #babyfuri #babyannouncement #welcomehomebaby #family #jisforjourney #firstbaby #babyboy #furiosifamily @ucfalumni #julybaby @osceola_regional

I didn’t love the homily at mass this morning because it fell into the trope of “America always fights for the liberation of others” & “how sad it is that other places deal with oppression & lack of opportunities.” That’s just fundamentally not true and that’s not a political statement. ••• So this afternoon I decided to say a rosary for people who are struggling to see the basic rights of others in this country as worth fighting for. ✊🏿🧕👳🏾‍♂️👶👩‍❤️‍👩☮️ ••• #blacklivesmatter #nativelivesmatter #catholic #catholicmeansuniversal #fightforjustice #jisforjourney #fourthofjuly #wethepeople #humanrights #familiesbelongtogether #americathebeautiful #peoplearepeople #allarewelcomehere #rosary #prayer

This is more than just a picture of a nursery. It’s a story of love. ••• On the rocker is a t-shirt blanket lovingly made by @courtney.furiosi of my late Father-in-law’s shirts so that this baby boy will have a tangible hold on his namesake. 🪡🧵••• The rocker is an amazingly generous gift by my mother-in-law where I’m sure we will be spending many hours trying to soothe this babe. 🤱👨‍🍼••• The crib is a gift from a co-worker & the rainbow painted by three other very talented coworkers @sadiegriesemer @juleslovesreading 🎨 This baby is a rainbow baby, one born after miscarriage (in my case 3 in a row). 🌈🤰••• The diaper & breastfeeding cart comes from the amazing @karrie_locher & it is filled with more generous donations & gifts from our baby shower put on my by Madrina @fwilkins418 🪴👶••• Two items I want to point out on the cart is the booklet “Burning Bright, Not Burning Out: Notes from a Decade of Surviving Motherhood” by @haleycarrots & the “Let it Go” Tumbler from @beaheartdesign - two strong & compassionate Catholic voices on social media. ••• #jisforjourney #breastfeeding #nursery #nurserydecor #35weekspregnant #rainbowbaby #rainbow #blessed #highriskpregnancy #inspirepregnancy #babyboy #babyontheway #firsttimemom

It’s been a while since a bump pic. 🤰Mostly because we’ve been busy with summer PD, kitchen renovation, baby shower, decorating the nursery, & my ever increasing medical annoyances. But HEY 👋 I still physically feel great, moving around even more because of the gestational diabetes (so yay?). And adding more shots 💉to my daily routine. 🤦🏻‍♀️••• Currently 34+ weeks pregnant but since I’m being induced a week early I’m reminding myself there’s only 5 WEEKS left 😱 #jisforjourney #babyfuri #highriskpregnancy #rainbowbaby #gestationaldiabetes #bumpstyle #bumpselfie #34weekspregnant #thirdtrimester

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY to my dad. 💕 You will always be “the most interesting man” I may ever meet in my life. 😅 I will never be able to guess your next plan or scheme but we will always be along for the ride. Whether it’s by⛵️, 🚂, ✈️, or 🚌. Love you soon-to-be Ito. ••• #jisforjourney #fathersday #loveyoudad @thefuriosity #happyfathersday #themostinterestingmanintheworld

This is my happy-vagina-post-baby kit! 🙌🤱💕Thanks to @lauren.niederhiser for the @itsbodily box gift & @sierranoeldavid for the @fridamom set to get me started! I’ve got mesh undies, maxi pads, witch hazel or benzocaine spray, pedi bottles & sitz bath supplies in both bathrooms ready to go!

This has been an emotional roller coaster of a wee

This has been an emotional roller coaster of a week - really only half a week.🎢 1️⃣ At a routine high-risk appointment I found out I also have gestational diabetes. To say that I was devastated is an understatement. 💉2️⃣ Wednesday we also had our breast-feeding class.🤱3️⃣ On Thursday we started kitchen demolition. 🛠4️⃣ Friday was our fifth wedding anniversary and kitchen installation part 1. 👰🏻‍♀️🤵🏻5️⃣ Saturday we had a childbirth class and an amazing baby shower. 🤰🌿Family from California and my padrino surprised me! I cried. ••• The only way I’ve made it through is has been with the support and outpouring of love from our family and friends. Too many to name here but thank you all! #highriskpregnancy #rainbowbaby #babyshower #gestationaldiabetes #blessed #grateful #vaccinefamilies #anniversary #diapercake #thirdtrimester #jisforjourney #babyfuri

It’s 11:04pm 🕙 I’m hungry & not tired. But tomorrow morning I have my 3-hour gestational diabetes test cuzzz I kinda didn’t pass the 1-hour one. 😭 Come on Lord, cut me a break this pregnancy!!! 🤰🤞🤰🙏 #jisforjourney #highriskpregnancy #rainbowbaby #31weekspregnant #thirdtrimester #bellypics #pregnant #pregnancy #pregnantbelly #babyfuri #gestationaldiabetes

#feetup BUH BYE school year of 2020-2021. 🏫🔜🏝You will not be missed! I will say, however, this year has definitely made me a better educator. I just didn’t want to walk uphill twice through hell to get there lol 🔥👩🏻‍🏫🔥👩🏻‍💻🔥Looking forward to what is turning out to be a very busy summer! 10 weeks to go with this baby burrito I’m growing!🤰#jisforjourney #schoolsoutforsummer #covidschoolyear #highschoolteacher #hellosummer #teacher #teachersofinstagram

Trying to understand my legal workplace rights & m

Trying to understand my legal workplace rights & maternity leave has been a NIGHTMARE. Crazy for an industry that is mostly women too. No one should have to chase down 5 different departments to get different pieces of the puzzle which still make no sense when I attempt to put them together. 🤬🤯🤰🤱‼️

Not looking for special exceptions, just looking to do the best thing by my family & come back to work as a full employee (aka not the 6 week zombie so many are pressured into). ••• #jisforjourney #fmla #maternityleave #supportfamilies #pregnancy #30weekspregnant #highschoolteacher #pregnantteacherlife #pregnancyunfiltered #babyfuri

UPDATE!!! The mayor responded to my email & is sending this to the public works office to get it removed! ‼️SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING. I saw this swastika on my way home from work yesterday in Oviedo. Rather than shake my head & drive in by I took a photo & contacted the city to have this removed ASAP. ••• Don’t be silent! #antisemitism #stophate #jisforjourney #speakup #stopantisemitism #seesomethingsaysomething

One of my sophomore boys today: "Mrs. Furiosi, what are you doing this summer?" Me: "Preparing for the baby." Him: "Oh I forgot you we're having a baby.” Me: "How can you forget! It looks like I have a basketball strapped to my stomach!" 🤰😅🤷🏻‍♀️ #bump #jisforjourney #pregnant #pregnancy #29weekspregnant

Pregnancy is not just about bump pics!🤰Body image: there’s back aches (exasperated by scoliosis), bruises from daily shots, stretch marks cropping up, and feeling generally more 🐳-like than 🧜‍♀️-like these days.

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!!! 🖤❤️🖤❤️ Two sweet surprises from @lmhsrams & a thoughtful family! 👩🏻‍🏫📝👩🏻‍💻••• As we enter teacher appreciation week be mindful that thousands of teachers in Florida will also be told they’re not being rehired. In many cases, not because they didn’t anything wrong, but because our state budgeting system is broken. It’ll look like a student/budget shortfall, they’ll let the last hires go & come September schools will have to beg for teachers again.

It creates a terrible cycle of low teacher morale, a shallow pool of quality applicants, & inconsistent education for students.

As you thank teachers this next week keep that in mind thst some of them have to show up the whole next month, put on a happy face to their students knowing they’re out of a job (& insurance) come June. ••• #teachersofinstagram #publicschoolteacher #teacherlife #teachersfollowteachers #teacherappreciationweek #teacherfamily #fixpublicschools #floridateachers #jisforjourney #stopteacherguilt

Some days it’s harder than others but it’s a good rule of thumb. 😂I also wanted add: 26 weeks pregnant & I danced in my heels all night 💃🤰#marriageiswork #indianwedding @matthewliammason #goingtothechapel #wedding #jisforjourney #hinduwedding #maywedding #married @thefuriosity

I have peed into more of these cups than I can care to count! 😂😂💦And considering how many OBGYN/FMH appointments I’m going to have as I move into the third trimester I’m only going to be peeing into these a lot more! #tmi #jisforjourney #pregnancy #highriskpregnancy #26weekspregnant #pregnancylife #unfilteredmotherhood #inspirepregnancy #babyfuri

Not a typical “Instagram worthy” shot but this messy future nursery is bursting with love. 💕 All these baby items (& more shoved away in other corners) have been gifted to us. We’ve been so lucky to have such an amazing village! Thank you for loving this baby so much! 🤰💙👶 P.S. I’ll still take stuff off your hands & I pay for shipping lol seriously! 😁 #jisforjourney #ittakesavillage #babyboy #babystuff #secondtrimester #secondhand #handmedowns #pregnancylife #babyfuri
