Let's Celebrate the Good Things

Thank you Ruth Ayres for hosting these Saturday celebrations!

Life is full of good things to celebrate. At times, we need to dig a little deeper to realize them. This week I did not have to dig!

One
We had a full week of school! No snow days or cold days! Five days of students! I think we are back to the rhythm.

Two
I had a great time with my small group ladies designing visual displays of our OLWs. More of that later this week.

Three
I had my winter evaluation with my principal. He has so encouraging to me! I felt blessed! We also had a discussion of what we would like to do differently next year with our ELLs. All good stuff!

Four
Great workout at the gym last night. Nancy and I pushed ourselves. I tried a new elliptical machine for cardio. It was hard but I feel good! My muscles are feeling the workout, but isn't that a sign of something good to come.

Five
I have a wonderful Mexican themed dinner waiting for me tonight at a friend's house.

I feel extra blessed today!

What are you celebrating today?

  1. Jaana,
    I love this week and all the things you celebrated. I still have not found my OLW. Maybe a little down time during our February vacation will allow it to arise. Enjoy this weekend!

    1. Support for OLW is essential! Sharing gives you accountability, but it is also just plain fun to share it with others!

  3. I love that YOU celebrated a FULL week and I celebrated 2 snow days! It is all in perspective. I hope that we have FULL weeks next week. There is SO much to learn.....we do not need any more days off!

    1. Snow days are fun, but none of us want the school year to be longer in June!

  4. I look forward to seeing your visual display of OLW. It must feel light to have the evaluation done. You are good at sticking to your regular exercise, pushing yourself. Wishing you another great week ahead!
