Anyone else have a case of the Mondays? It felt like everyone at work was dragging today and even our photocopier decided to call it quits today.
At least Saturday and Sunday were productive with studying. I put together a matching game for some of the concepts I’m struggling with. (Can you tell I’m a teacher?)
The weekend was also delicious. We didn’t have any Thanksgiving leftovers, but we had some tortillas. Open face quesadillas are going to be more a stable around here.

Well, I didn’t make the 30-Day Full Body Challenge numbers. To be honest, I am not heartbroken since the whole idea behind the challenge was to give me a focus in the gym and it did exactly that. I did finish obliques, planking, back, hamstrings/quads, hip flexors, and shoulders.
My plan is finish the challenge in the next 10 days, so it will be a 30-day turned 40-day challenge.
RQ: Do you extend challenges/goals if you don’t meet them or do you let them go? How was your day at work?

I think that the day after a long holiday break (or eve a long weekend) are always hard for teachers (and other staff) and students!! Hopefully Tuesday is better.
The students are always so tired! It’s kind of cute how out of it they are.
My day at work was busy! It was tiring, but felt good to be busy. Everyone was kind of running around being crazy.
It did feel like no one was prepared for today.
Looks like you had a great work out week!
Extending challenges when necessary is SUCH an important part of healthy living. You didn’t toss in the towel on the challenge altogether. You MADE ADJUSTMENTS! I love it!
Thank you for your support. As a challenge lover, it’s hard for me sometimes to admit when I don’t make it.
