A Reminder

Posted on by

Recently I’ve been plagued by a serious case of the worries ranging from something life threatening happening to Ruby to future school yard bullies and everything in between.

A few minutes into my most recent session with my therapist and she reminded me what I already knew – when I focus on the here and now – life is pretty damn great.

So I’ve decided to make a choice to not worry now and to deal with stuff as it comes up.

Yes, I know this isn’t revolutionary. I needed the reminder and thought I’d save you some therapy bucks.

What’s on your mind lately?

Song notes:

+++++

1. Infectious much?

2. I know it is killing long-time Florence fans that this song is making its way into the hourly rotation on commercial radio, but how else would have been the soundtrack to my daily (very short) commute?

3. This song makes me wish I was still in school so I could hop around the school gym singing loudly whilst dancing with all my friends.

Anyone else feel like dancing this week?

Saturday Senses is a way to capture the spirit of each week. 

tasting ::  black bean/chicken quesadillas

hearing :: kids reading with wild enthusiasm

smelling ::   candy!

seeing :: the smiles returning to my students’ faces: new p.a.t. games

feeling :: despite not feeling well part of the week, strangely upbeat {i think it must be the giveaway!}

wishing/hoping :: for keeping the parent conference confidence and connection going. two great meetings down, 15 to go.

What about you?

What are your senses this Saturday? 

Looking back, how was your week?
