Most of my memories are not stories, per se. More Chief-isms:
- Her inability to remember anybody’s name, and thus use of the word “friend.”
- Waking her up from her power naps on the couch in her office.
- Opinion-writing weekends, seeing us sit and write in tandem at the desks in the clerk’s office, often culminating over Saturday take out dinner, where she always ordered the tenderloin salad.
- Her willingness to drive me home late at night, even though it was out of the way.
- The shag carpet throughout her house, including the bathroom.
- The soft and caring heart inside her tough as nails exterior.
More than any of this, to this day, I consider her the reason I am such a clear thinker, strong writer, and hard worker. I no longer practice law. But I use the skills she taught me daily, and I constantly reflect on her mentorship as I grow and develop my staff.
A fun picture from the last time I saw the Chief, bringing my kids through the court in June 2017.

My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on several websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
