Taco Tuesday
Hola amigos! How was your day? Mine was quick, and that’s never a bad thing. Per usual, I started it early with a walk with the dog, a quick breakfast, and then a walk to school. I was in the mood for sweet (honestly, when am I not?) and this breakfast hit the spot. A … Continue reading »
Happy New Year?
Happy Thursday! We’ve almost made it through the week! Thursday is my favorite day by FAR. I just love the anticipation of the weekend. I woke up, walked the pup, and then RUSHED to get out the door. I don’t know why I can’t ever make it out the door on time…seriously. I’m awake 3 … Continue reading »
If all I had to do was teach…
Ahh!! I’m up to my eyeballs in end of the year things. Wrapping up the school year means two things: crazy kids and assessments. And those two things don’t really get along. I’ve got RTI and MAPS scores to figure out, ILPs to update, DRAs to grade and enter, IEP kiddos to worry about….all on … Continue reading »
Bright Lights, Big City
Hello lovely friends! I’ve had a busy (but exciting) day, and eaten spectacular things throughout it. Shall we get started? Upon waking, I laid in bed and read this book. It made me laugh, it made me cry, and it made me think. I highly recommend it. Then I climbed out of bed to refuel … Continue reading »

Switch it Up
Hello and Happy Monday! I tried something new this morning and didn’t work out before school. Gasp! This really is a big deal for me, as I’ve been compulsively exercising before school/work for 8 years – it’s just how I wake up. But this morning, I was exhausted, and instead of pushing myself to do … Continue reading »
Lesson Learned
I guess all of those early morning spin classes caught up with me today. Not only was I exhausted, but I was the hungriest I have been in a long time. (By the way, spinning was awesome again this morning – hardest class yet. Plus, we watched a Warren Miller film, which reminded me of … Continue reading »
I can’t listen to your story until…
Started off this morning early with a 60 minute yoga class from Yoga Today – it was for beginners – and I consider myself a complete beginner – but I was a little frustrated because it was too easy. I kept going because I was waiting for the challenging part, but it never came. Boo. … Continue reading »
