The life and times of one B. R. Aidwood.
Compliment
Tonight I preformed in a comedy show and after the show a man wanted to have his picture taken with me. He put his strong arm around me. He said I was great in the show- very funny. Then he said, kind of embarrassed. “I told my friends that you were Mrs. Tidwiddel… like you [...]

I’m a Learning Nerd
Today I put Efficiency in Learning: Evidence-Based Guidelines to Manage Cognitive Load in my wishlist and thought, “I’m such a learning nerd.” I love to learn and I have a high tolerance for boring education and hard to read books because I’m really motivated when I want to know something. (Not that I think the [...]
Why do I love Christmas Music so?
What is it about Christmas? I haven’t always had the cheeriest Christmases and I’m sure I will be having a big ole’ lump of coal Christmas this year, but Christmas doesn’t get me down- even if its not perfect.

My mom and I seemed to have intertwining dreams last night- maybe partly because we are working together to help a family member and have had intertwining conversations. I dreamed that my mom was going to have a baby. I was hoping it was going to be a boy. I would be happy either way. [...]
Other Things I Would Like to Do:
(besides watch movies) I would like to go to Costa Rica for two months and study Spanish and adventure around. I would like to go on a road trip to Utah with friends, stop by Zion and Mount Timpanogus, of course, and attend GA. And see all my Utah friends!! I would like to teach [...]
Simple epiphanies
