Good morning, Amanda.
I feel great today, mostly because I had a great day yesterday...I took care of my head in the morning, I got to talk to you for a long while, and then I got some housekeeping done. Project debris found its way to trash or recycling, clothes were put in appropriate drawers or closet, old bills and statements met their fate in my shredder, and then I did some correcting after all. And I'm so glad I did. The kids did great on their first test. I was so proud as I sat there correcting that I didn't resent that I was sitting there correcting.
Today I feel more present here at school (despite this little study hall post). I'm not distracted by when will I get everything done? I will begin correcting those lab reports as soon as finish here, and when I get home I can get in sweats and tackle the bathroom without thinking, sh*t, I really need to get those lab reports corrected. I guess every once in a while I need to catch up on my life outside school (and get some uninterrupted teacher time) so I can be a better teacher when I'm here. When the blur between my two halves gets big, I need to take a day and draw a line. Today it's nice and sharp.
Loved the story about walkie-talkie spelling! Thanks for starting my day with a smile.
Have a good day, A!
Love, B
