Welcome! - Stupid name huh?
Let me start by explaining the name of my blog. My name is "Miesha". People have ALWAYS mispronounced it. It is a lot more common now than it was in the 70's. It is pronounced "My-E-sha". Even though it looks like "Me-sha" or "Me-E-sha" - oh well you get the point. One teacher decided to help the class remember my name by saying "YOUR-esha, MY-esha, HIS-esha, HER-esha..." and so on. The guys thought this was really cute. Well, today I thought it would be funny to introduce myself this way. I have never gotten "snippy" when people mispronounced my name. Actually I joke "I will answer to anything with an -esha on the end" and I'm serious, people who know me usually correct strangers we meet. Well now I am a teacher and I thought it was funny the way that rhymed. LOL!
