Focus On the Good

Another week has gone by and it is already August. Where in the world is the year going? A friend made a comment the other day that people were already counting down to Halloween. Before we know it, it will be here. Let's not think about that right now.

Last Sunday I blogged about focusing on the good in life. I am going to try super hard to regularly post about this each week. Looking back on the past week and looking for the good.

Sadly, there aren't many pictures from this last week, but there was plenty of good!

I got another few hours finished in my classroom with help from Abby and Laura. I am a little confused as to why they are so eager to help me! I won't complain though since it helps me out and also gives me some time with them.

I won't be playing nurse yet this week, so I have a few more days to get work done before returning to work on Friday.

For four sleeps I got to spend time with dear friends in Saratoga, WY. This was the best part of my week. I got to cuddle with this dog each night. This is an old picture. He looks very different at the moment. He is rather naked compared to this picture.

It was lovely to sit and chat, drink wine and eat cupcakes.

And try to avoid being stuck with the "damn grapes"

 Every time I leave, I am convinced that I leave a little piece of my heart there.


Book Meet #3 was spent with one-on-one with this girl! I was sad that the others weren't able to make it, but glad for the time with her. I have known Carlie for eight years now ever since I had her sister my first year teaching. She read "The Witches" by Roal Dahl and I read "Once Crazy Summer" by Rita Williams-Garcia and "The Year of the Book" by Anrea Cheng.

I look forward to this next week filled with good!

What "Focus on the Good" moments did you have this past week?

  1. I went through 2 boxes of materials in my cabinet that have been there since I started teaching. Man, did that feel good! (BTW, you don't need to get scrap paper for a while.)
