Paper surgery

When you have to either cut paper to add a correction and glue it on or wait out something but mostly about tearing off something from a project but making it look like it was never a mistake is a teacher daily thing in the primary grades so paper surgery is something that I have coined as a phrase and my students actually adore because it makes me feel like it’s OK to make a mistake and it will be corrected
My Father’s Day project had water get spilled on it so my teacher did paper surgery to take the important parts and put them on a different piece of paper with scissors and glue to make it appear as if no mistake had happened.

Nasty namaste

a person fluent in mindfulness and completely illiterate in actually living it
She writes poetry, meditates daily, and has everyone convinced she’s the most compassionate soul in the room — and then sat across from me in a waiting room after twenty years of friendship and looked straight through me like I was a stranger. Nasty Namaste in the flesh.
