Clearly I’m A Masochist

Not the sexual kind–so if you were hoping to find that kind of site–this isn’t it.  But thanks for stopping by.

I am pretty sure that next to glutton for punishment, in some random online dictionary, you will find my picture.  Just when things look to be settling down and getting easier, I decide to complicate them.

Case in point–

It’s the holidays and I just signed up for Weight Watchers and bought a dozen homemade snickerdoodle cookies at a event this weekend.  Snickerdoodles are my FAVORITE.  I can’t not eat them and holy hell they are 3 points each.  Shit.

My course load for school is winding down.  I only have two classes to take and they are both a little on the “relaxed” side.  I was looking forward to a relaxing semester.  So, I accepted the offer to teach a class I have never taught in the Spring (it starts in 6 weeks).  Not only is it online but it is also ITV.  Yep.  I get to teach to a group of students who are far away and on TV.  The camera adds how much?   I must Keep away from Snickerdoodles and up my exercising.

Now I get to teach the course of my dreams.  But dreams are never as good in reality as they are in our heads.  I’ll be teaching TFA teachers how to teach.  Sounds interesting and fun doesn’t it.  I really am looking forward to it, but it’ll be difficult and I want to do it well.

My calm spring has now turned into a crazy spring.  But it doesn’t surprise me or anyone else who knows me.  That is what is irritating.  When did I get so predictable?
