A good day interrupted by a very stupid meeting.
Teaching:
It was a pretty good day! We got through calendar, a turkey poem
Turkey
Turkey in the barnyard
What does he say?
Gobble, gobble, gobble
Gobble all day!
Turkey on the table
What do You say?
Yummy, yummy, yummy
Yummy all day
Turkey in my tummy
What do I say?
I ate too much turkey on
Thanksgiving Day!
We also got a journal written, wrote about our Terry Fox run on Friday and went on a nature walk.
I really am enjoying my class and the new kid today looked shell shocked, but told mom he really liked it👍🏻
After school we had our regular monthly staff meeting on teams that was painful!!!! Our principal was visibly flustered and if she says one more time,”I don’t care what’s happening at other schools”, I may scream. Most principals go by what is happening at other schools!🙄
Exercise:
I was a little nervous but finally went for a run with the kindergarten teacher. I figured she would run faster than me and she does, but she’s an attainable challenge so it’s perfect. She is just building her stamina and takes walk breaks so I know I just have to keep up until her walk break and then I’ll also get a break. We did 5.34km at a 6:30 average. It was really nice to be running faster!
Baking:
After quickly doing my floors and having my dinner I did some baking as I have a giant zucchini to use up. I made the chocolate zucchini bread and the zucchini cake from Minimalist Baker and both were very successful. I really love how both used only one bowl too.
Well that’s it for me, have fun!

How exciting to have a new running partner!
Yes!! I love it:)
it’s always good to have someone who is just a bit better so you feel it is a challenge goal and not a “OMG I can never keep up with you so why try”….
glad you got to do some baking and I too love when I can do everything on one bowl… less clean up for the win!
Yes compared to my other running buddy who is way ahead, I at least try to keep up with this girl
Hurrah for a midweek running partner, that will add to your enjoyment. 😊 sounds like you got rid of plenty of zucchini, in a good way. Did you see the October baking challenge yet? It’s baked apples!😍
Yes I’m super excited to have a new running buddy!
I am super excited about baked apples!!!!
One bowl baking is delightful!!! haha I love that you made some zucchini recipes!! My hubby just requested some zucchini brownies, so those are on the baking docket for this week. What do you think of this month’s baking challenge?
Ooo zucchini brownies sound great!
I hadn’t really thought of baked apples as a baking challenge
They turned out less than stellar😔 I wouldn’t have either!! I have apples, maybe I’ll give er a go this weekend!
Oh no! You should check out the minimalist baker chocolate zucchini bread- I think it would work as brownies too.
Oh okay!! We’ll have to give that a go!
New buddy. How fun.
I can’t seem to leave a comment on your oct 7th post . Back to hand washing. Do you tell them how Florence Nightingale , a woman, a nurse, discovered just by hand washing patients began to survive
Oh no I hadn’t told them about Florence Nightingale, but I will tomorrow. Thanks for telling me!
