Things I Love Today

In no particular order:

Tuesday Treats: a burst of protein (deviled eggs, cheese and crackers), some blue tortilla chips with salsa, and a spoonful of pastel M&Ms. The perfect boost at recess (for teachers) for energy to manage the rest of the day. (Our students did NOT see their shadow in February and they are in full spring behaviors!)

Afternoon recess duty: sunny and mild with a view of the blue Pacific Ocean. The PE teacher wrangling the competitive basketball boys to an organized line shooting baskets, so I didn’t need to put my attention there. Instead, I rescued the many basketballs that had rolled off the blacktop. As I tossed them back I noticed a couple of girls retrieving them and putting them back on the ball rack. I love when kids are helpful just for fun. A relaxing and non-stressful recess for me!

My daily walk: getting home in time to squeeze my walk in before my Zoom meeting. A chance to reconnect and debrief my day with my hubby, mentally clearing space for the complex thinking needed for planning a collaborative project with colleagues from the California Reading and Literature Project (CRLP).

Comfort Food: Yum! Spaghetti dinner prepared by our resident chef (not me!). Perfectly filling, hot and savory, satisfying without feeling heavy.

What are you loving today?

    What a lovely post! There’s certainly a lot to love from your day. I especially liked how you captured your afternoon recess duty (and I’m jealous of your view). Great idea to reflect on a day and appreciate what you loved. May steal this idea.

    Kim, fun post on things you loved. That colors in your photograph show more to love. So beautiful. Today, I loved talking to my grandson on a video call, cooking ratatouille for dinner, and having another video call with some friends to talk about Marcus Borg’s book, Reading the Bible Again for the First Time.
