Summer is Almost Over For Me!
Aug 02, 2009
This is my last week off before I have to go back to work. I am looking forward to the new school year, but I hate that summer "freedom" is almost over. I had a fill last Friday, and I'm finally up to the fill level that I had before my unfill in late February. I'm hoping that this will help. I am also looking forward to a "normal" routine again; I seem to do better with a defined schedule.I've exercised a lot this summer, mostly walking, but I am not going to the gym anymore because of the cost. If I find that I need the extra boost, I'll join again. It's easier to find time to swim, walk, and/or ride my bike than it is to go to the gym.
I went to Washington, D.C. this last month with three students. We had such a great time! Seeing so many things that I had heard about, e.g. Lincoln Memorial, the White House, the Holocaust Museum, the Library of Congress -- words can't describe the significance. The funny thing is that my students had a hard time keeping up with me! They couldn't get over how fast I walked and that I wasn't tired and they were! Also, they did comment that I only ate lettuce and nuts! I had brought snacks with me (nuts) and salad bars were always available. Unlike some of the others, I didn't get blisters or sore feet! Next year, we're thinking of broadening our horizons to New York City! This trip reminded me of why I teach!
I haven't been on OH much these days. I find that spending so much time on the computer takes time away from my family and friends, and activities, and I read every day but rarely post. I'll try to do better!
