March Madness

Image
 The month of March started with organizing a rally and march in the city of Frederick, Maryland. A joint effort of Rise Up Frederick and the Frederick Democrats, our rally drew over 1000 people. For me, it felt powerful to join a movement determined to promote saving democracy from a would-be dictator and his highest contributing campaign donor, a billionaire gone ballistic on ketamine. The resistance to the threat of authoritarianism in our country is growing and becoming stronger. I am proud to be a part of it. I was thrilled to have been chosen as the Best Actress in a play by the ACT theater organization of Hagerstown, Maryland, for my performance of Ebby Nezer Scrooge in A Christmas Carol. For the past three years, I have enjoyed being a part of this production. For me, the story is the essence of the Christmas/holiday spirit. Sharing that story with audiences makes my holiday complete. The final half of March was my trip to visit dear friends in France. I have enjoyed wonder...

Fun February

 So, what have I been up to this month? Well, lots of fun with friends! A Super Bowl party with dear friends was filled with laughter, cheers, and jeers!

  Welcome to my new blog! After being permanently suspended from META social media platforms, many folks reached out to me about how to stay connected. I read articles that suggested personal websites, and other independent formats. I decided to add this blog to my new webpage. My webpage highlights my work with education, organizational leadership, performing wedding ceremonies, and my work with folks re-entering society and looking to move forward.  www.loisjarman.com But it will also host a link to this blog so you can catch up on my weekly/monthly "exciting" or not activities! So the week of January 20, I have been watching movies, not the inauguration of the 47th. My friends know how I feel about agent orange. I have been sharing updates on authentic news on BlueSky as our legacy media outlets are not covering much that is negative about the new king. You can follow me there at @lojarman.bsky.social and I am also on LinkedIn. I will continue the spring semester teaching ...
