Sometimes it's easy .... sometimes not so much!

The two hardest times of the year for a teacher are the start up and the shut down of the year. September and June. On top of the every day work you do you have to do a lot of other things (i.e. take a "10 minute" training on using epi pens, learn 125 new names, go over new IEPs, figure out where you need to be with your new schedule, etc.) So the last thing you want is one more thing to do  - - - exercise and eat right!  Can't I just grab a Nutri-grain bar and a diet coke, skip the exercise and deal with it all later.

I actually didn't exercise this week beyond the minimum, I was barely eating right and I certainly didn't want to go visit 2B and have her work my Brazilian butt off.  I could have canceled at the drop of hat, one hint she didn't want to see me and "I'm outta here." None of that happened so I grudgingly pulled myself away from the computer where I was preparing for tomorrows lesson and went to workout.

Wow, how much better I feel!!! Stinks huh, being a slug is easier and there is much more self-pity available if you are a slug (no results but a lot of self-pity).

On to the shower - - - a well earned shower.
