Spring Break
Ah…I feel more relaxed just thinking about it.Matt and I will be taking off for spring break soon. First we’ll travel to Big Bend for a few days of camping, and then we’ll head to Marfa, TX. At the end of the week, Matt will head to Austin for South by Southwest, and I’ll be traveling to New York City for a little consulting.
My goal is to have all my work done before I leave, so I don’t have a modicum of responsibility or stress. I’ll also need to get ready for the trip.
What has to get done? Let’s see:
- Get books on CD for the many

March: Reflection & Rejuvenation
Photo courtesy of Nikki McClure’s 2010 CalendarIt’s March. Hooray! I always like the start of new months. It represents a mini-moment of reflection and rejuvenation. It’s like a little version of New Year’s all over again.
What should I celebrate about February?
- I enrolled in a course about how to start your non-profit and a course about how to actualize your dreams.
- I met all my consulting deadlines.
- I made quilt to auction off at our Montessori fundraiser.
- I met up with lots of old friends for dinner.
- I attended professional development at the Houston Zoo.
- I planned a night of bowling for a group of friends.

Mid-Month Reflection
Yes, it is way past the “mid-month” point. But in a few short days, I will be reflecting on the past month. I need to do a brief check-in with myself and make sure I’m on track.Here were my goals for February:
- I want to do a better job of tracking our spending, using our index-card method. This approach works really well for me, but it’s hard for me to keep track of Matt’s spending when he goes on an errand. We have a new system for putting receipts in a particular place, so it should get easier. [Phew! We’re doing this!]
- I want to completely organize my classroom
