good news!

This is a model from writing I picked up watching Rachel Hollis on Amazon Prime in Made for More. Before they start their training, they ask the crowd to share good news. This news could be simple things like "I found my fave new shoes ON SALE" or bigger things like, "My cousin beat cancer." All news is good news, so here is some from me today.

Good news!

I got a huge chunk of my To Do list completed on Thursday.

Good news!
The weather in Chicago is creeping up into the 40s. It's a heat wave!

Good news!
My class's behavior was ON POINT Thursday. Like, so much that I offered 15 minutes of free time tomorrow (first time all year) if they could do that again. It was BLISSSSSSS.

Good news!
I saw Aziz Ansari the other night. SOOO GOOD.

Good news!
The last of four book club books came in and our new 7th grade book clubs are all set in poetry: The Crossover, Brown Girl Dreaming, Bronx Masquerade, and Home of the Brave. Can't wait to get started with these after spring break!

Good news!
After days of indulging on not-so-healthy food choices, it's always great to return to routines and add health back in via densely nutritious protein shakes and detox teas.

Good news!
We rolled the clocks back so the daylight will stay with us even longer now. Summer is on the horizon!

  7. Love the focus on just the good news with an emphasis on the small things as opposed to big ones--sometimes it's the little things that really keep us grounded and positive.
