judycaret Yikes, Bev, I hope you're okay!

After the excitement of seeing otters yesterday, today's solo walk was uneventful. I did get my 10,000 steps but then made a big lunch for us: hamburgers are my favorite food. Since I'd blown it, I continued with a big chocolatey dessert. Oh well, it was delicious...and tomorrow is another day. :)

Most of the guests were parents but some were friends of other teachers or school workers such as the nurse or bus driver.

Deb ms/IA It depends on what your purpose is. Do you want to introduce several careers to elementary students or do you want a little more in depth presentations to secondary students?

We have done a career fair day with 8th -12th grade students. We cycled through maybe 6 speakers of the students choice. I went to two speakers who were my former stu...See More

EXERCISE ROLL CALL - Thursday

Dec 29, 2016

Lovely sunshine here until mid-afternoon. I got 6874 steps in before I decided it was too cold for the 19- month-old in the stroller. He didn't complain, however.

Smile muscles in full workout mode this week. And vocal cords. How many times can you read "My Truck is Stuck" and then laugh when the "Beep Beeps" come in at...See More

Positive person Debbie may have died of a broken heart. At least she was at her son's home when the ambulance was called.
