“This is one corner… of one country, in one continent, on one planet that’s a corner of a galaxy that’s a corner of a universe that is forever growing and shrinking and creating and destroying and never remaining the same for a single millisecond. And there is so much, so much to see.” -The Doctor

Snow
Well we did get a good amount of snow over a couple days. Traffic was terrible the past two days. It also means that for me I need to wax my skis! I also gotta get my trail pass for Three Rivers Parks... ugh lots to do.
Maybe I will also do some lessons for then as well... who knows.
I have difficulty motivating myself to get out and run. I have slipped into a ritual of staying up too late and not running in the morning. Perhaps I could even have running stuff with me at school and run after I teach? Although now that we have snow I think that time will be reserved for skiing!!
Running around in the area by new place it's really fun though. There are hills, spectacular houses, and lots of new run routes for me to explore.
Tonight I must admit is a night for me to bum around and watch a Christmas movie. Love Actually perhaps?

Restful week
Well, report cards are done for my students. I had a successful thanksgiving. Now tomorrow I get back to the grind of school.
I am looking forward to getting back to a new trimester at school. I have learned a lot over the past couple months to say the least. I know that this go around I will enter student's grades way before the last possible day. I am going to make sure I get in some social studies and science. Perhaps art as well? I am not an artist, so it is very difficult for me to teach art to anyone. The crazy thing is that there are only 15 days of school until winter break!!! That is fantastic news for me, but that also means I got some work to do. I am looking forward to it.
Yesterday I ran twice and then did a ton of lower leg work. I am sore. I haven't done that much in a long time. Now I need to make sure I get in some fantastic skiing and running in this winter! Perhaps biking? That means I need to get a fat bike though, and some better winter cycling shoes...
