SOL Day 11 - Today's Word Is Blessed

What a wonderful day. I actually woke up before the alarm, and enjoyed a quiet start to the day. The parking lot was empty at the start of early worship - can't say I've ever gone to early worship the Sunday of daylight savings before! That was a first! 

 We went to Mockingbird Dinner for brunch following bible class. The last time we went there for brunch, we missed the time cut off - they stop brunch at 11:00. Today we made it with minutes to spare! I guess most people were still sleeping in to make up for losing the hour. Breakfast was delicious and I highly recommend the orange roll.

 Tonight I'm watching old movies while I try to decide what I want to do tomorrow. The possibilities are endless. 

 Favored, fortunate, privileged...today I am feeling blessed.

    It sounds as though your Sunday was exactly as God intended--restful.

SOL Day 15 - Today's Word Is Random

Today's the first day that I have sat down to write without an idea already brewing. So here are some random thoughts... Seems to me if we want students to believe that we consider them the future of our country, then maybe we should listen to what would make them feel safe at school.  I get the whole right to bear arms - just not sure I can connect that to the right to bear automatic weapons.  I love to watch mindless television shows like Survivor. I know they have no redeeming value, but I like them because I don't have to think. My favorite hobby is reading. When I'm really into a book, I'm torn between wanting to see how it turns out and not wanting the book to end. As soon as I finish a book, I usually buy a new one. I am enjoying writing in this blog more than I ever thought I would.  Without definite aim, reason, or pattern...today's word is random.

SOL Day 8 - Today's Word Is Thankful

The two curriculum directors I spend the most time with are both highly talented educators. I love the way we begin with one idea, and each add a different perspective. The final product is always better than any of us could have done alone. I love having a part in the teamwork. Our curriculum team presented our review materials to assistant principals today. Just like yesterday, they clapped as we unveiled the resources. Both times I had to hold myself back from taking a bow! Ha! Tomorrow is the beginning of a much needed break. I don't have specific plans for the days off, but that alone is a fabulous feeling! No schedule, no plans. Grateful, appreciative...today I am thankful.

SOL Day 13 - Today's Word Is Restful

I started today in the middle of last night - I picked my daughter and her college friend up from the airport at midnight. It was nearly 1:00 this morning before we pulled into the driveway. As tired as I was driving to the airport, I loved the shift in my schedule. During the work week, I am an early riser. Not because I love to get up early - it's more about the quiet hour or two of work with no one around to interrupt.  But my true nature is a night owl. I love staying up late working on projects, reading, or watching old movies. I feel like I get the best sleep from 2:00 am to 9:00 am. I tend to wake up naturally and feel so rested. Every time we have a week or more off from school I fall back into this pattern - it's who I am. What a blessing it is to have these days to rest and just be me.  Tranquil, soothing, peaceful...today's word is restful.
