Good morning! I have kids coming in for tutoring in a bit, but I wanted to stop by and share my WI. :smiley: CW 256.7 HW 268.6 GW 225

GUYS! This week has been insane. It was that last week of the term before our two week break and all the kids had to work on were projects. All day. Every day. It was so boring, but I set myself up for that. Also, I was waiting for my double date Friday night! It was so awkward. I still didn’t know the guy very well, and I…

Oh no! I’ll be praying for quick healing! I went to the doctor Monday for my left shoulder, turns out I have bursitis in that shoulder and tendinosis in BOTH shoulders. That means no shoulder work in weight room. Which makes me soooooo sad! Also, no bench press and no triceps. It basically all leg work every day. I have…

I’m a little late hear, but i think that the estimation is probably accurate for yard work, especially if you were completely worn out. Yard work can be pretty intense!

QsOTW: I’m keeping track of everything I eat. I’m not TRYING to diet, but I’ve been consistently improving my intake. I try to limit my carbs to around 200 a day and I try to exercise a few times a week.

Good morning! Birgit-I figured out the emogi thing thensame way that was annoying. I love Longmire, too! I’m late to the conversation about that. I’ve been busy. Haha. We’ve had cold weather too, and it SNOWED on Saturday morning. It was really nice yesterday though. So, he asked me out! It was so sweet. He bought me a…

I’ll have to go back and read over today’s posts, but I want to check in and share... CW 260.2.....so close! HW 268.7 GW 225

Good morning! Welcome to all the new “faces”. I’m so glad you’ve joined us. I’m Ashley. I’m a middle school teacher and in the middle of the hardest season of the year, so my updates tend to be sporadic at best. I’m a Jesus follower, and I love to pray with/for my fellow Serial Starters! Let me know if you have something…

There was more to that. It got cut off. Also.... CW 263.4 HW 268.4 GE 225

Man, all that crazy wet and cold weather is making me super thankful to be in the Midwest. We have had rain, but the temps have been moderate. It got down into the 30s last week and 40s/50s this week, but it’s spring, so those temps seem reasonable. It’s supposed to storm again today. I’m so glad I don’t have to drive the…

Hey all! The book IS at my parents house. He’s going to scan some pages to get me through this week. Gym was awesome last night. My legs are SORE today. I ran around the basketball court and did some foot work with a rope ladder on the ground. The boys showed up for basketball, and I may have shown off just a bit for a…

Well, it looks like I might have left my book at my parents’ in OKC. :neutral: I had blueberry toast PBJ for breakfast so I opted for veggies at lunch. Haven’t decided on dinner yet. Sister and I are going to town, so maybe we’ll eat out. Gym tonight with K. I’m reading all your posts and praying for you! Thanks for the…

Hello all! Welcome Sherri and any other new people! I’ve been trying to get my life back together. It’s been slow going. I skipped drama practice today to do some lesson planning and grading. Lunch was sloppy joes and dinner was chicken Alfredo. Mmm. I’m looking around for my book for class (I’m a student and a teacher!)…

Hey, guys! I’ve been sitting around researching debate clubs on my phone. I have a student that has a particular set of skills, and I want to find him a place to use them. He causes many headaches right now. I’d like to reassign the headaches to opponents! But I should have put the pigs’ blankets in the wash! So, now I’m…

I’m here!! I have been so distracted this week. I feel so loved! I haven’t walked in a couple weeks, but i have gone to the gym. You burn so many calories on hills!! Last week I downloaded SimCity build it on my phone. It’s a game in which you build a city and you have to manage the different parts. It’s super interesting,…

Oh, Dawn, I’m so sorry to hear all of that. I will pray for you and for your community and for you SO. All of that hardship in one week. Is there anything I or my kids can do to help the children who lost their moms? Is there a news article I can share with them so we can brainstorm ways to help? Writing cards or sending…

Happy Saturday, everyone! Brunch was smoked sausage, avocado, eggs, and cheese. Yum! Every day has had something this week. Drama, girls Bible study, gym, grading. It has been a whirlwind. I wouldn’t change it though. The kids are starting to get it together. Several of them need to work on their lines though! We can’t…

Hey all! I’m still here! It’s been a crazy week. I’ll catch up more tomorrow. Girls are coming over tonight for games and treats. We went to the gym tonight. 4 nights for me this week! Ok I’m off. Much love! Ash

Hello all! Lana-I’m sorry for all of it. That is so hard. I’m praying for you. I’m feeling a bit better today. Yesterday was bad. PMS, junk food over the weekend, and lack of crazy pills. My kids were good, though. I’m running out of time, so I’ve got to go. Waving to the friends around the pool. Send a CBoy with some good…

Hello, all. I forgot my meds at home, so this morning has been dizzy/weepy for me. I’ve been talking to my mom, so that has been good. We’re really close. I ate pretty much whatever yesterday. Today won’t be much better. Still tracking though. I’m sad I missed church with my family (part of the weepyness), but I’m glad I…

Happy Friday, all! Hello Jim! I’m not a basketball person, but I’m happy that you all have something in common to talk about. How fun! Dawn - Holy moly. I’ll be praying for your ex’s son, the family and you. That is scary. Also, I’m sorry about your SO and the drama with his ex. That is heartbreaking. I will pray that the…

YASSSSS

It’s Frisday here at CHCS. After all the accreditation stuff, our fearless leader gave us Friday off! She canceled school and is giving us a paid holiday! How wonderful! Sara - I’m sorry about your heartburn. Ick. I hope you find a solution. Acodado, egg and tomato for breakfast. Lunch will be a taco salad because the…

This day has been something else. Having different types of students is interesting. Every day I’m learning how to be a better teacher and a better friend to these kids. I love them so much. Lunch was grilled cheese, tomato soup, and a green salad. Much better today than yesterday overall. K and I are eating in the dining…

Quick NSV. I had a full fat breakfast this morning. Eggs, a hamburger patty, and a small avocado. I walked right past the donuts in the work room this morning without a really though. Yay!

Good Wednesday Morning, y’all. My weight was up this morning, but I’m not losing hope or determination. I know days that I go overboard are part of the process. I log every day so I can see the ups and downs. I want to be comfortable with them. It is part of life. Today will be better! I’m going out of town this weekend to…

Earlier today I composed an entire post, but then hit done instead of post reply. I. Hate. That. I didn’t have time to rewrite the entire post so here I am speech to text posting because I don’t have the energy to type out the stank post. This is been a pretty good day. I was observed during a class that I wasn’t quite…

The accreditation team that is visiting us is so amazing and they love our school. I feel a little less worried about tomorrow. Shelby, guinea pigs! I have two in my classroom. I love those little furry pigs. And I LOVE middle school. I never ever expected to want to teach this grade. I wanted to teach upper high school.…

Quick hi from school. Planning period is now. Classroom observations are tomorrow for school accreditation review. I was expecting it today. I’m a little nervous, but I’m going to rest in the peace that I’m not the only one they are observing. Will get back after school. -Ash

My knees are an issue too. And Type 2. Good luck with your journey!
