Hi all...

I just started Induction again, yesterday. I think this make 3 or 4 times in the past 18 months. I usually start off fine, but then get bored or frustrated or just plain lazy.

This time, though, I seem to have new incentives. I just got a new teaching assignment for next year (7th grade Earth Science), and I know that it will be a challenge. Perhaps if I don't have to worry about my health so much (because, of course, I will be feeling fantastic), then I'll be more than up for the challenge of teaching teenagers. Also, I have a trip to England coming up in July, and I'd love to have more energy to do all that walking.

I've decided that one thing I need to do to succeed this time is to plan ahead. That means planning my meals, days, etc. Maybe then, I won't get bored, frustrated, or lazy.

So far, I'm doing o.k., although it is still a challenge to get all of my water in. That's something I'll probably always struggle with. As a teacher, I only get to use the bathroom a couple of times a day...so, adding more water to my day could be "dangerous". "Mrs. M., why are you dancing around the room like that??"

I'm looking forward to all of the support that I see here. Feel free to direct a little my way. It will be appreciated.

TTFN!!
