Meeker likes tofu.

(He’s going to kill me for that title) It’s been raining all day here, so we’ve been pretty house bound (except for trip to the grocery store and a twenty minute reprieve from the rain, during which Adrienne and I went for a brisk walk). Breakfast Admittedly, an odd one. We went to Meeker’s parents’ … Continue reading »

Sunny

It was finally warm today! So sunny and pleasant, it completely made my day. In fact, when we were just 30 minutes from the end of school – I forced my 3rd graders to go outside for extra recess, just so I could enjoy walking some laps around the soccer field in the sunshine. My … Continue reading »

Last Monday

No baby yet. I just got back from a brisk walk with Punky (it snowed again last night!) and I’m headed out the door to what I’m confident will be my last Monday at work. I have high hopes that Baby Cakes will make her entrance into this world this week. In the meantime, I’m … Continue reading »

Snack Time

I’m so excited about my snacks for the day – I had to show and tell. These things are the best. I found them in the bulk bins at Sprouts…cinnamon cream covered almonds. Hope your Mondays are as exciting as my snacks!

Apple Sweater

Skippity doo-dah. I love starting a week that’s going to be short!! Tomorrow is already the middle of the week! I started off this morning rather grumpy (my house was dirty, and that always puts a damper on my enjoyment of mornings), but after some exercise and breakfast (eaten in my clean car), I was … Continue reading »

Competent

Everyone always told me, teaching gets easier after your first year. But it didn’t. I figured I was just doomed for a profession that sucked the life out of me and required 60 hours of work each week. But, it seems I’ve turned a corner! The third year is a lot easier! A significant change … Continue reading »

Extrovert

We didn’t have kids today (they come Monday), but we spent the day getting familiarized with our new igoogle system which I am … Continue reading »

Google It Up

I started this morning with a lot of moving. At 5:00am I walked the dog. At 6:00am I did some weight lifting, and at 7:00am I walked to school. The morning was so pleasant that I just didn’t want to stop enjoying it. However, lots of moving leads to lots of hunger. One egg, salsa, … Continue reading »

I love my food processor

Ahh, weekends are so nice. I did my share of relaxing/laying around today, and have managed to pepper in some wonderful food. Upon waking, I laid in bed for 45 minutes and read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I’m only about 70 pages in, but I’m already intrigued. When I crawled out of bed, … Continue reading »

Heart Warming

Today was a day. In an effort to stay positive, I’ll not go into too many details. I feel so blessed to have a break coming up! I went to the gym early this morning. I would have run outside, but it was snowing. I can run in the snow October- February, but when it’s … Continue reading »
