Work Success!

Getting to the point where I am sitting with a student teaching has taken a very long time. I applied for my job in mid December, did supplemental paperwork and 2 interviews in January, accepted in early February, and went to a week long training in mid February.

Oy! I just went for my first run back from vacation! I ran about a mile before I gave up. A mere 2 weeks ago I was running 6, 7 miles like it was no big deal! I suppose there has been about a one week break from my last run. My body wanted to […]
