Why I'm Loving Monday

Why I'm Loving Monday

I'm loving it because... After putting a lot of thought into it, and spending hours this weekend brainstorming, I decided on a theme for my classroom this next year - camping!  I've been scouring the Internet for some ideas and have seen some adorable pictures.  I'm especially excited about finding a little tent and some sleeping bags to put in my reading corner.  How cozy does that sound?!?

I'm loving it because... we cleaned the house today.  Not that I really love cleaning, but I love having a clean house!  Did you know that using newspaper to clean windows/mirrors keeps them streak-free?  Jon taught me that!

I'm loving it because... I signed up for my second 5K!  I am so excited.  I think I may have an addiction because I'm already looking at upcoming races.  Too bad they aren't free!  I just had so much fun.  My goal was to beat my time from the Watermelon 5K, but last week Jon and I started strength training.  We found that our times on our 3 mile runs since then have slowed somewhat, so after some research Jon found that starting a strength training routine can slow you down.  It has.  So, we'll see how it goes.  My hope right now is that I'm at least no slower than I was at the Watermelon 5K.

What are you loving today?
