Monday Gratitudes!

Yoga teaching, finishing up my personal assistant duties, after school teaching, yoga taking and now WINE!

My apartment is a mess, but it's still been a productive day. I got through my after school residency without completely losing my voice and the youngers were largely engaged during most of the class. In general they are so attention deprived, that they all want to talk and DO everything. They never want to sit and watch each other EVER. I need to build the class around that and not fight it.

I'm fighting it.

I am also fighting some of the older kids wanting to help their peers. I have some super smart girls in the class who "get it" before the others. And they they side coach them. It drives me crazy, but I think I need to take the smarties aside and let them know that I know they've got it, but ask them to allow the others the time to figure it out on their own.

It's been a bit since I've acknowledged my gratitudes, so here we go, again!

1. sunny days
2. snuggly kitties
3. catering leftovers - like Humboldt Fog cheese!
4. yoga
5. the start of something new
