85 kids to supervise is insane! I hope you at least get a similar age group!
Im impressed with either a 32 or 34 inch waist for a 61 year old man! You are looking great!

Your weather is wonkier than ours, you just had snow and will soon be getting 80 degree temperatures? Ours likes to change drastically but that is insane! Good luck with picking out your new patio furniture!

I have spring fever. I just ordered a bunch of plants online. We have a couple of nurseries here, but not a lot of variety. And I'm ready for flowers! I'm also about ready to pull the trigger on a load of new outdoor furniture. My current stuff is in good shape, but there's not nearly enough of it and it's the wrong style for this house, sort of traditional... Italianate? I may move it to the roof deck. This yard needs modern and a lot of it. But it's a lot of money and I've been dragging my feet for going on three years...
Tonight there's an art opening at the art center, and I'm going with my two friends and then we're going to dinner after. Should be fun! Kirby also needs his walk.
there are 80° temperatures in the 10 day forecast, which also may be influencing my spring fever. I think that may be all I know! Hope everyone is well. Liz, glad you're having a great time. Peps, I'm sending you cat herding mojo - sounds like you're going to need it!
What a beautiful vacation you are having. Sorry I seem to have missed your birthday. So, happy belated!
210.something....
Long azz day today... have a performance for grades TK - 12 at the local open air mall for the Education Foundation fundraiser. We have subs in the afternoon so we can set up at the mall. We'll be there until 6 or 6:30. Expecting about 350 kids to show for grades TK-5, then all the middle school band kids and the high school choir will come. So probably about 500 kids to wrangle. We have 6 teachers, so about 85 kids each to supervise. Oh joy! LOL!
I bought 3 pair of shorts (loungy, workout type) with elastic waist. I bought 32" waist size. I should have bought 34. They fit, but just a little more snug in the waist and crotch than I would like. So now I have to lose a few more pounds. Small clothes are never a good motivator for me, so I have to drum up some inner mojo to get this last 20-25 pounds off. UGH....
I am beginning to realize the absolute unreal schedule I keep. It is manifesting in two ways: being apathetic about school/teaching and procrastination mode once I get home. With too much to do, I feel like doing nothing! Go figure! I haven't even started taxes yet.
Gotta run....
OH seems quite finicky the last couple of days again. The server seems to keep going down? So I am typing in a note first so I can copy/paste into OH and not lose it all hopefully.
Yesterday we spent the day at Anegada island. Pretty white sand beach which we all took a walk on after hanging around in the water before lunch. We ate dinner on the island at Sids, an open air restaurant where you order your food when you make your reservation.
I am getting a bit worried about what weight I might be putting on though we are eating pretty healthy and I'm keeping portions relatively small. I may wait to weigh until after I have been back home a few days eating like normal.
Have a winning Wednesday!
ETA: We were jus****ching someone trying to paddle a dinghy back from the island - the engine apparently wasn't working, but it wasn't making any progress because of the wind/current. We thought it was someone else's dinghy, but it was ours! Apparently it broke off last night and got swamped on the island. The boat next to ours sent their dinghy to tow ours back. So it was obviously pretty rough last night (we are bobbing around a lot this morning)! I wonder if that means we won't have a dinghy going forward? It was pretty full of water and the engine was submerged.

I usually use the stairs instead of an elevator if I possibly can: exercise snack!

Snow in March is a pretty frequent occurrence in Massachusetts - even in April sometimes.
I finished Huck Finn yesterday thank goodness. I've just started James and already like it much better.

We did have Prosecco in mimosas, though not caviar and champagne LOL. I would have loved some corned beef and cabbage, but none this year.

I love the idea of exercise snacks!
