Lack of focus

Posted at 2:31 pm by Becky

This post will reflect a severe lack of focus. Get ready.

For starters, I highly recommend this article. Very thought provoking, and, well, who doesn’t want to be more like the Amish?

Last week seemed really long, even though it was only four days. One day I felt on top of my game and competent, the next day I felt like I was barely keeping my head above water. So much so that I started writing sentences completely riddled with cliches. Then I started writing fragments. Rough week.

On Wednesday I was leading my class in “Brain Gym” exercises. One kid’s too-baggy pants fell down. Luckily he joined in the whole class gigglefest instead of being mortified.

Jamie started the birthday celebrations early by filling up our giant vase with flowers, running the dishwasher, cleaning the kitchen, hiding cookies in the kitchen (for me to find, not away from me), and in general being a great hubby. Yay!

Our cats do weird things. They put eachother in headlocks and lick and kick eachother. They are definitely girls because they always go to the bathroom together–one will be in the litter box, and the other will sit outside the door waiting. Weird.

I think that’s all the news from Lake Michigan… time to put grades in the gradebook! Good thing that’s why I went into teaching in the first place…
