True confession: I have been blogstalking Oh' Boy 4th Grade today so I could participate in Currently. I love this monthly chance to meet new blogging friends.
Currently:
I'm listening to More or Less, an audiobook by Jeff Shinabarger. It is challenging me with the question "What is enough?"
I'm loving that it's Saturday. The students are really wound up right now, and I need the rest. I just got back from a walk.
I'm thinking about how well Young Authors' Day went yesterday at our school. We had several authors do book signings. Students went from session to session and learned from different teachers and volunteers. I posted the handouts for my session yesterday.
I'm wanting people to stop advertising "Back to School" sales when I have two more weeks of this year. (You know who you are .)
I'm needing a focus for summer. I have so many things I want to accomplish, but I don't want to be overbooked.
My vacation essentials: more water, long walks, and more sleep. I feel like I'm limping through the school year and we have two more weeks. I can't wait to have time to recoup.
Store News:
I am loving that it is Saturday too... could use tomorrow always being Saturday, hmm, and maybe the next day too.... can you tell I'm ready?!
ReplyDeleteMathematically yours,
Jamie aka MissMathDork!
I can relate completely.
DeleteI'm with you on the overbooking summer- my to do list is just ridiculous, but I'm sure i'll be excited about sunny, warm days and want to spend my time outside instead of inside on my to do list!

Learning to the Core
I had a bunch I wanted to do, but we were having a rare sunny afternoon, so I went outside. The walk helped my attitude.
DeleteI am jealous of your sunny Saturday - we had a overcast, rainy day with more tomorrow! I hope to do more walking this summer to - as does my dog I'm sure :)

I live north of Seattle, so overcast is normal. I decided to enjoy the day.
DeleteTwo more weeks... You can make it! Then you can take some time for yourself and enjoy the summer!

I kept checking my phone. It was really sad.
DeleteI am very jealous of your sunny day! We just keep having rain and more rain! I cannot believe you have seen some back to school sale ads. That is out of control! I hope the rest of your school year goes smoothly.

We usually have a bunch of rain here north of Seattle. When it is sunny, I must be outside.
DeleteGood luck on the next two weeks! You can do it :) The book you mentioned sounds interesting, off to check it out now!
