Once again, the weekend is here and I find sometime to post on my blog. I love being able to sit down with a cup of hot chocolate or some good music and just write. Writing is quite enjoyable when it is for my own personal desire and not a crazy 20 page paper. Interestingly enough, it is very soothing. Only thing that would make my day better is if I had a pumpkin spice steamer or Chi tea... I have been craving those two lately.
Yesterday, I was feeling very overwhelmed and distraught over all that I had to accomplish this weekend. Brian and I went on a walk and my mind could not stay focused on our conversation. My brain would jump from one thing to the next and my anxiety would increase. So what did Brian and I do? We decided to spend a half hour working and then we put everything away and went hot tubing. We needed to relax and worry later. We ended up having a very pleasant evening before I had to head home. Then, I woke up this morning, rejuvenated and ready to tackle the world! Or at least my weekly lesson plans, ELD monitoring tools, and sub plans. Success! My weekly lesson plans are completed, the sub plans are ready for final tweaking, and my ELD monitoring tools are on their way. Could Sunday morning be any better? Yes, because now I will get to go to church and praise God for the joy of work without anxiety! And... there will definitely be a nap in store for me.
Best thing about this week: Veteran's Day which equals no school Thursday and Friday!! And a four day weekend to share with friends and Brian. So maybe I will get around to posting on Thursday or Friday.
Oh, and if you need a good song... try "Happy" by Never Shout Never. I found it on Pandora one morning while I was working at school. Part of my routine is to get to school around 6:45-7:00am, put on Pandora and get everything ready for the day. Love it!
Enjoy your week! I know I will.
