It was supposed to snow this morning.  It didn't snow, and I am so incredibly disappointed along with all of the other teachers out there.

I've got a song stuck in my head... "Alaska" by Little Hurt.  It's got explicit lyrics, but I wish I could listen to it at school because its super catchy.  It talks about moving to Alaska and hating snow but taking a chance and just doing the things.  I love this song and Norah knows all of the lyrics, which makes me smile when I hear her sing it. 

My grad school class starts tomorrow and I'm actually really excited to start it.  I feel like I've got a good habit of waking up early to do things so I'll have a good routine set up for my "homework time".  

I've also started doing crafts while I read or do grade things so it doesn't feel so much like "work", which is fun.  I'm currently crocheting 1) a hat, 2) a scrunchie hair bow thing, 3) a baby blanket for my neighbor's baby girl who was just born, and 4) a backpack purse that I started in the summertime during our vacation.

Have a great day today, Friends.  It's a great Monday!  :) -Sarah

So Come On...

"So Come On..."  -Death Cab for Cutie, Trasatlanticism  There are only four days left in 2019.  How are you going to spend them?  I am planning out several things for 2020, and I cannot wait to get started on the New Year.  Hence, The Lesson Plans for Living.   I was going to wait until after New Years 2020 to post this, but I am feeling rather nostalgic about things right now.  So here we go! I just did something that I've wanted to do for a couple of years... About 15 minutes ago, I renewed my domain and I'm writing once again.  I am so proud of myself for taking this opportunity and this leap of faith despite not having everything figured out quite yet. I have created this place as an outlet to write nearly three years ago and then I got busy with Life and it fell to the wayside, as did several other ideas.  I am the self-appointed Queen of Projects, but I am also the worst at finishing anything.  All of my ideas are constantly in progress.  I am OK with t

Nine Years Ago

Good Morning, Friends.   At 5:00AM this morning, I woke up and made my coffee, fought the cats off my desk (and away from my coffee), and then decided to read some of my older stuff.  I had completely forgotten about the blog that I started several years ago called "The Adventures of Myself".  And when I say it was a blog, it was literally one post.  What happened, I can assume, is that graduate school started back up and life happened.  I got busy and forgot about it, which is typical for me.   Nearly a decade later, I am going to attempt to not quit what I start.  It was a goal nine years ago, and I am going to continue with it into 2020.   Below is a copy and pasted version of "The Adventures of Myself" and the one post that I wrote on January 4, 2011.  I was a newlywed at the time and in graduate school full-time.  Its been a lifetime since then, but my goals this year are pretty much the same.   Here is to 2020 and actually doing the things that are m
