Okay, I realize that by now you all know that I live in fast forward and take on way, way too many commitments. My normal mode is half crazed and that's okay, it keeps me busy. But this past week and this current week have me way, way beyond my normal crazy. And it's all my own fault.
To begin.. last Thursday and Friday we set up the district art show. I'm pretty sure we have close to 5000 pieces in it this year.
Saturday I judged a bi-district one act play contest. I had a blast, but didn't get home till midnight.
Sunday, I wrote a paper for one of my grad classes.
Monday I started working on the Area one act play contest that I am managing this week. In fact, I really started answering questions from them on Saturday night!
Today, I got everything ready for the reception for the art show, worked on the contest, taught my classes, attended the reception, went to a softball ceremony where students honored teachers that made an impact in their lives (how cool was that!) and came home and wrote a paper over school district purchasing procedures.
So now I am ready to show off pictures from tonight!

And here we are.. the tired district art teachers!
And here is Kylie.. pointing to her fish with a cookie in her mouth!
For the rest of the week, I am going to get artwork ready for a contest, work on the area contest, do my job and at some point write an in-depth case analysis for my organizational change course. I am hoping to chill in 2020.
So in all of this, how is Eat to Live going? Well, I lost 3.5 pounds last week. I was on a roll until Thursday and then Saturday, I was a stuck at the competition, so my eating choices were not "on target." But I have felt FANTASTIC! AMAZING! and better. Even in the midst of more stress than I can remember and having my allergies go crazy.
This week, I am hoping to continue the trend of healthy choices. I have come so very far! I am eating very little meat, LOTS AND LOTS of VEGGIES and FRUITS, beans everyday and drinking water. I have not been perfect, nor do I anticipate being able to make perfect choices 100% of the time. My goal is to hit the 85-90% of the time mark.
The most amazing thing about this whole Eat To Live thing is that I'm SLEEPING! I am not a sleeper. I'm a take an hour or two (easy) to fall asleep kinda person and then I wake up four times during the night and finally get up at 5am because it is a relief that it's finally a "normal" time to get up. Well, last week, in the midst of the insanity and stress that would normally keep me up and sleeping even more poorly, I SLEPT at night! In fact, twice last week I slept ALL NIGHT! From 10:30pm to 5am! That is HUGE! And for me, worth giving up sugar and fats!
I'll keep you posted, but I am loving this new eating adventure. I think I'm gonna love my waistline even more!
