I SURVIVED 26.2 MILES AND LIVE TO SPEAK OF IT!!!

even more, i’m blogging to get you started on a great week – hope your journals are as awesome as my running (i have my doubts, you’re going to have to bring your A game this week to top me:)

“the world in your lunch box” – oh, a cute book that elementary BOB needs to add next year – all about the science and history behind what we eat for lunch

“that’s what i’m here for” – by a detroit lions linebacker i loved growing up – story of his wife’s 12-year battle with cancer – great story of faith sustaining you through life’s tragedies – and, how our heroes can grow and be more than we ever thought (and thus, really heroic in the first place)

“shattered hopes” – story of canada’s 1980 olympic team – good for middle school as an example of even the best plans of some don’t always work out – imagine working four years towards and olympics and then it’s suddenly taken away from you because your country is boycotting…

“prefaces to shakespeare” by tanser – got from the au library – i now know how to teach the three plays we read this year – unfortunately, we’re done with them:)

hope your week ahead is great – if you watched for my red bama toboggan this morning on channel six, all the more best wishes to you!!!
