"Here's my day so far: went to jail, lost the girl of my dreams and got my [rear ] kicked pretty good. Still, things could be a lot worse. Oh, that's right...I'm falling to my death. Guess they can't How did it all come to this? Well, my end starts at the beginning...The very beginning!"
So, here's my day so far: Went to work, went to a meeting, got my teacher badge, ran errands, talked with my sister, and went running. Still, things could be a lot worse! What a wonderful day I've had. I'll try to keep this post short and sweet.
Here are some things that made my day so good:
1. Starting my tutoring job again. Kids are funny, and somehow I always seem to get to work with the little ones that have attitudes, opinions, and personalities larger than them!
2. I am all set up for life insurance and a retirement plan starting in the fall. I feel so grown up! (And, although I understand that it is necessary, it seems rather funny that in one of the first meetings for my career, we are already talking about retirement.)
3. Eating HEALTHY!!! It is truly wonderful. Although, I am finding that I need to make more frequent trips to the grocery store because I am eating so much fresh produce and way less junk. But since grocery shopping could be considered a hobby of mine, I really don't mind.
4. I got my teacher badge! And, I actually like my picture on it--good thing too, because I will be wearing it every day.
5. I printed off a behavior clip chart for my class, and laminated it on my own personal laminator. I am starting to feel like a teacher for real.
6. Exercising! I am starting to see a tiny improvement in my endurance while running, and I always feel great afterwards.
7. Having enough discipline to eat healthy AND exercise. They definitely go hand in hand.
8. Over-hearing a comment made by a little boy in a yard I was walking by during the "cool-down" phase of my workout. And I quote, "Dude, remember? A woman acts as a reflection of her man!" I had to chuckle over that one. (And I had to wonder who I am a reflection of, seeing as how I don't have a man.)
And that, my friends, just about sums up my day.
In conclusion, here are some lyrics from one of my new favorite songs "When I was your Man" by Bruno Mars. It seems fitting seeing as how a woman is a reflection of her man.
"I hope he buys you flowers, I hope he holds you hand,
Give you all his hours when he has the chance
Take you to every party cause I remember how much you loved to dance
Do all the things I should have done, when I was your man."
