Teacher Appreciation Week



Honestly, it's hard to remember my first year, but I do think most of these comments are sensible to remember each and every year.  Some days are more difficult than others, but it's a "great gig."  I missed teacher appreciation day at Chipotle yesterday, but I'm not sure what I would have done with two burritos anyway.  Monday at our staff meeting super not interesting and/or fun, we received a gift from... actually I'm not sure whom it was from... probably principal.  The little flower was in a pot sprayed with some paint that made it like a chalkboard, so one could write on it with the piece of chalk, also inside the pot.  It was a cute idea.  The little flag said, "Thanks for growing with us."  Even though I was hoping for an ice cream bar, the plant was nice.



Anyway, Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to all my teacher friends!

I really like this video. Maybe I'll write a little letter to myself on my first day back in the classroom in August.

I actually do feel nervous about getting back in the game.

But excited too.

And appreciative that I have a great job.

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.
