goals

Six days ago I griped a bit about exercise and body image and resolved to walk more and eat better food. Since then I've walked 22 miles, which is 10 more miles than I usually log in the same amount of time. Though I haven't been a food angel, I haven't been a little devil, either. I've resisted chips and Cheetos and eaten more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. I did have a Dairy Queen, though, which is totally fake but totally tasty.

So I got some goals for this week. There's just one week left before I go back to the preschool and I'm ashamed that I haven't attended to some things over the summer. I'd meant to finish up my NAEYC classroom portfolio, as well as plan out afternoon activities for the year (I'm lead teacher between 1:00 and 3:00 for all ages other than kindergarten).

Goal 1: I'm 20 criteria away from completing my classroom portfolio. If I do four each day, I'll be done on Friday.

Goal 2: Each day this week, I'll plan one week of afternoon activities structured around nursery rhymes. Sometimes I can't believe these kids aren't exposed to Jack and Jill, The Three Little Kittens, Little Miss Muffet. By Friday I'll have 5 weeks of planning done. That's enough to get started.

Today I met my goal, but it took me about 5 hours. I hope I don't run out of steam as the week progresses.

And on Tuesday I met the goal, too, but it didn't take as long.

Wednesday: goal met
Thursday: still working on it, though my NAEYC portfolio is as complete as I can make it without a few resources from the preschool. I'll finish next week!

Congratulations, Rosemary Myers! If Miyazaki had made Napoleon Dynamite and set it in Disco Australia it couldn't have been better than your movie.
