Joan of Artic


Today is the fourth day of no school due to cold.  Many have been complaining about the "cold" days.  I, for one, wish I was in school too although I spent two hours at the gym this morning and loved it.  Since winter break, it's been difficult to teach.  It seems like we're seeing the kids every other day.  Tomorrow we will finish a two day summative exam (writing assignment) that I started on Friday (supposed to have been given Thursday/Friday). When we go back tomorrow (I hope), students will need mega-reminders before they finish the writing (summative exam).  Arghhh!

The good news is I bought new boots this year (Sorel, Joan of Artic).  I really like them and think they are kinda stylish.  By stylish, I mean living in the tundra stylish...

Great boots. I tried some boots on yesterday, but they didn't have the color I wanted.

I'm kind of surprised you Minnesotans are staying at home in this cold. Isn't that your gig, that snow and freezing temps are just a shrug your shoulders part of life?

Sankalpa Day 5

Today I went back to the interweb to find out what I could post about that would relate to sankalpa .  "...Sankalpa has the potential to release tremendous power by clearly defining and focusing on a chosen goal."  My chosen goal since May has truly been on being physically active.  Since it's cold and miserable out, I've been being active inside instead of outside.  December 6th (or something like that) was the last time I ventured outside for physical activity.  I, however, have still been going to they gym and focusing on being physically fit (or at least burning enough calories to eat more food).  Yesterday I received an early morning text from a friend in God's Country .  President Obama was talking about "The President's Challenge" .  Today (I tried yesterday and decided to put it off until today... forget out it... let it happen... put it aside... clear my mind of it... all probably sankalpa) I formed a group.  The...

What if... The Delivery

  Molly was excited to get a package from her friend who lives in Alaska.  When she opened the box, she was confused.  Although the shirt was actually soft and of good quality, she was upset by the guns in the flag.  When she googled Holster's, it was exactly what she thought... pro-gun.  She didn't know how to handle the situation, so she sent a picture stating she was confused. Her friend had obviously lost her mind.  During the conversation, she kept proclaiming that she hadn't sent a t-shirt.  When Molly explained it was her writing on the box, things became weird.  The friend was in a state of denial.  Molly even sent a text with a picture of the writing on the box. Molly's friend was adamant that she sent homemade condiments.  She wouldn't give up on her story even though it was clear Molly is in possession of an NRA type t-shirt.  After much deliberation, the two friends realized what had happened.  The original box, wit...

Missing You

Two Sundays ago I missed church because I was out of town. Last Sunday I missed church because I could not get to church due to the marathon (blocking my path... not my running). Dad and I tried to leave early, but we did not leave early enough. I joked with Dad about the fact that they would miss me at church. When I checked my e-mail this evening, I actually had an e-mail from my pastor saying I was missed. It was a short e-mail, but it was sweet and definitely a positive part of my day.
