I managed to take a lot of pics this week, and some are even creative!
Sunday:
 |
I was supposed to run eight. Thought I ran eight. Pulled out my
phone and...oops. Good oops. |
 |
| Holy sore calves! I woke up to a Charlie Horse that morning. |
 |
| Triumphant, bragging runner. |
 |
| Mom's garden. |
 |
| In or out, ladies? |
Monday:
 |
Our kinder classes are temporarily housed across the street at
a Catholic church, so three mornings a week I hike over there.
It's really pretty. |
 |
| My uke and I, waiting for some TK kidlets. |
 |
Just the shadow of a teacher carrying an open laptop, two small
bags, with a ukelele strapped to her back. And an iPhone
in hand. |
 |
Lesson learned: Don't try to run on Monday after nine miles
on Sunday. Cross training is your friend. And your knees' friend. |
 |
| This came in the mail and it was super-exciting. |
 |
| Tea ring. |
Tuesday:
 |
| Good morning, school! |
 |
| The Kinder classrooms are so cute. |
 |
| Music Teacher |
 |
Me: Have you been crafting?
Matt: *laugh* Yeah, I've been crafting!
What it is: A lacrosse ball in a long sock.
What it does: Loosens sore muscles. |
Wednesday:
 |
| Painting a color wheel to show my students what I expect. |
 |
| Tints and shades. |
 |
| "Our Flock Rocks!" More kindergarten adorableness. |
 |
| I had my third grade students do some rock "painting." |
 |
| I gave middle school kids paint and lived to tell about it. |
 |
| Selfie with ukelele. |
Thursday:
 |
Sound Wave Art (fourth grade). They've been learning about
sound waves in their science unit. |
 |
| Give them an idea, watch them run with it. Awesome! |
 |
Waiting for my appointment with Matt. He hasn't made me flip
that tire yet. |
 |
Back in the garden. I like to chat with Mom while she tends
it. |
Friday:
 |
| On Friday, we Jamba. |
 |
| MESS |
 |
| SO MESSY. By the time I left, it was no longer messy. |
 |
"Can I have some colored pencils and markers?"
YES, VAPA TEACHER, YOU CAN. |
 |
| This was a fabulous idea. Pedicures with Sarah. |
 |
| BEST color! |
 |
| Post-pedi Orange Crush adult-type beverage. |
 |
| And a cheeseburger. Oh, hell yeah. |
Saturday:
 |
| Kettlebell day. |
 |
| I beat last week's time by something like eight or nine minutes. |
 |
| No biggie, just holding 25 pounds of iron above my head. |
 |
This dude has been persistent in a not-so-nice way. His
first message to me, back in June: "You have a big chest." |
 |
| A visit from Dixie. |
 |
I've viewed him exactly twice. The second time was
an accident. Believe me, he's a troll who thinks
he's hot. |
