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 »

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 »
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 »
Orange you glad it’s Friday?
It’s 1:06pm and I’m home from work! Whohoo! It was a grading day, and I finished my grading last night, so this morning I organized, planned, and skedaddled out of there by lunchtime. Before work this morning, I went for a lovely run with the dog and the sunrise. To refuel and break the fast, … 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 »
No Cook Wednesday
I started the day with an hour of Dave Farmar yoga, then hustled myself out the door to work. Eleven hours later, I strolled back in the door and crashed. Here are the highlights, in terms of food at least. ¼ cup cottage cheese, 1 sliced apple, a handful of toasted cashews and cinnamon I … Continue reading »
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo…
My day started off with an incredibly energizing and vigorous spin class at 5:30. I can’t even tell you how much I enjoyed myself. Not only was the gym unbelievably nice, but the spin studio was out of control! While spinning (in a room with about 50 bikes!) the instructor put on a movie (muted … Continue reading »
When I grow up…
First of all, thank you all so much for your incredibly kind comments about the student who transferred out of my class on Tuesday. I can’t tell you how much they meant to me. It sure has been a crazy couple of days. Last night, I came home and literally fell into bed, and slept … Continue reading »
Anyone wanna go halvsies on a pie?
Can anyone guess where I pulled my title from? Hint: think comedian I unintentionally split everything I did/ate this morning into halves – I honestly didn’t think about it until I sat down to write this post. I started off with half a Luna bar Then did half of a yoga class (30 minutes) from … Continue reading »
Figs and Pumpkins
Happy Saturday! So far, the first Saturday of 2010 has been spent, reading, walking and cleaning. For me, that’s pretty indicative of the Saturday’s to come… I started out with two slices of toast, Neufchâtel cheese and fig spread. Neufchâtel is almost identical to cream cheese, but with less fat – I can’t even tell … Continue reading »
