 For the month of March, I am writing and posting a slice of my life, hosted by Two Writing Teachers. 

Slice of Life Challenge #23: Day 9/31: 

Currently

Currently...

I'm watching The Last of Us, Slow Horses, and Shrinking. I only watch The Last of Us and Slow Horses when I am together with my boyfriend, Steve. 

I'm reading Grown by Tiffany D. Jackson, Before I Met You by Lisa Jewell, and Real Happiness at Work by Sharon Salzberg. I am ALWAYS reading more than one book at a time.

I'm thinking about next year's teaching assignment. Today I was notified by Human Resources that I was awarded the position that I applied for. Instead of a .6 in Alternative Education and a .4 in English, I will have a 1.0 in English. Instead of preparing for four separate classes and toggling between two different departments, I will only have seniors for English next year. While I will miss working with students in an alternative education setting, I am excited for this change. I need a better home/work balance.

I'm listening to an audio book on Hoopla - Pam Jenoff's Code Name Sapphire. I have also been listening to Kate Bowler's Everything Happens Podcast. I also listen to music often. Lately I have been listening to the Once soundtrack. 

I've been researching about crocheting and gardening. Lately I have been making amigurumi. Now that it's March, I am thinking about how I want to plan my vegetable and herb garden this year.

I'm grateful for my teenage children, a loving boyfriend, my clowder of cats, a stable job, health insurance, a house, and having enough.    

Thank you to Elisabeth for inspiring this post.
