...I have failed. Yes. It is Friday. It is not Tuesday. I have already failed at writing and posting on Tuesdays. I am frustrated by my early slip up. I cannot, however, let it deter me from remaining vigilant in my pursuit of sharing my personal writing. So here I am, writing and posting on a Friday.
It’s no wonder I did not get this done on Tuesday! Whew…it has been a whirlwind!
- The school year is now in full swing and I am inundated with planning, presenting, and grading.
- I am focused upon what I deliver to my kids and how I deliver it.
- I am already worried about the kids I see “checking out” and whether or not they will achieve the standards-based goals I am charged with ensuring they reach and, in some instances, whether or not they will successfully reach graduation.
- I am immersed fully into learning as much as I can about these new devices we all possess and in becoming a more digital, in-the-now sort of teacher.
- I took my son to Terre Haute and left him there.
- I am feeling guilty about the poor, sweet puppy I have to leave at home alone every day as he had gotten used to all of my attention this summer.
- I am remembering how much harder it is to keep my home clean and neat when I go to school every day.
- Since it has rained and gotten hot, finally, the tomatoes in the garden are exploding. I am washing I don't know how many every day. Really. Lots of them.
See? I can barely keep track of the days of the week already! It is a wonderful feeling. To be so connected to and passionate for the things in my life is a blessing. The days of the week squish and huddle so tightly together that they sneak right by me. I mean really? It is Friday already? My gracious! Of course, the older I get I do begin to wish time would slow down a little. Well, just a little.
On a positive not, I do already know about what I will write next time....ON TUESDAY!!!
