March Madness: Ain't Just For Basketball

The end of February/beginning of March has been crazy, crazy, crazy! School has brought with it an all-time high level of stress, as we prepare for the SOL tests and deal with sixth grade "senioritis". Oh, believe you me. It exists.

Things that bring me copious amounts of stress:

1. math eCARTs
2. broken phone
3. broken GPS
4. If the Girl Scouts are a Christian organization, then why do their cookies come during Lent? And why didn't I think through this whole giving-up-chocolate-for-Lent thing BEFORE I bought 3 boxes of cookies??

Things that do not:

1. girly time w/ Britt & Bri
2. executive suites & rooftop dancin'
3. my mom's Native American turquoise bracelet
4. puppy Penny snuggles
5. Aveda pampering
6. kids in my class sticking up for one another :)
7. book club
8. de-stress talks w/ PK :)
9. clever pieces of writing
10. wonderful co-workers

I just needed to see that the good outweighed the stinky.
