That’s how my mom started my day. It’s neat because she tells me what she pulls out of her jar every day:)
Teaching:
I took a break from morning runs today as I don’t really want to become predictable.
Today we tackled writing our report card goals (because six year olds are so good at that🙄), we wrote about releasing our butterflies yesterday and we worked on our Saskatchewan art. It was busy, but I didn’t feel particularly productive.
Reading:
This is going to be short tonight as I’m almost done my book and want to get back to it!🤣
Exercise:
After a lovely nap, I made myself go out for a run. I tried putting insoles in my shoes tonight, but my toes still really hurt. I think tomorrow I’ll have to see if I can find wider shoes. I don’t want to hurt my feet permanently!
I was hoping for a long run tonight, but it was a zoo out there tonight. I must have run into at least three sets of kids, though I have to admit I like that, but dodging and weaving around people, no thank you! I’ll finish off my monthly mileage in the morning:)
I’m off to my book!
Have fun!

Running in the afternoon is nice since it’s sunny but then there’s more people to have to dodge which sucks. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your book!
Yup it’s a toss up to which run problem I want to deal with:)
Only runners would understand that dilemma haha
Lol yup! This morning it was way too busy out there
That’s so weird! It’s usually so quiet in the mornings for me, especially during the week.
It’s the problem with living in a super active area! I came across at least ten other people today
That’s crazy to me!
Its always busy outside here! Even during rain storms I’ll meet people out walking and running
I love that though! It’s weird when you’re in a quiet area with a ton of houses/apartments but no one is there
It is nice as it allows me to run anytime and not be by myself- just gets a little annoying when it’s packed and you’re having to dodge kids, bikes, dogs, etc
That would be nice to not feel like you’re alone but it would be annoying to be dodging things all the time
Exactly!
I can not imagine trying to get children to write realistic goals for themselves….. no thank you. Hope you enjoyed the end of your book. What is next on your to read list?
It just strikes me as a waste of time. We do goal setting, but for things they care about. I also have to have them “self assess” whether they communicate, socially responsible, etc- another waste of time- I haven’t met a six year old yet who doesn’t think they can do everything
they either thing they can do everything or they think they can’t do anything. just a waste
Yup that’s it exactly! I have so many better things I could spend that time online
Switching up your routine is a great idea! Sounds like a nice day in spite of some of the issues 🙂
I’m way behind in Reader and I saw your picture pop up from last year when you cut your hair off for the donation to make wigs for kids – are you going to do that again this year?
Our assembly is this Wednesday, but no my hair is not long enough this year.
You really had a lot of hair cut off last year then – maybe next year?
The woman who runs it is leaving our school so I don’t know if I’ll have the opportunity again
Well at least you did it once and someone is wearing a natural-looking wit with your hair and smiling. 🙂
Ive actually done it twice so like to tho k two people are happy
That is terrific of you to do that AJ!
I do what I can as I have s pretty wonderful life
Hope you had luck finding better shoes- bad shoes/inserts can really throw off everything!
I ran today in them and it was better
so glad to hear!
