Less Stress

This is pretty much my mantra for the year 2012.  Will I be able to eliminate it?  Naw, not really, but I can bring it down to a more tolerant level.  I'm just trying to not sweat the small stuff so much.  My tolerance level had become very low (almost zero) and noticed how it was effecting things, including home.  So, I am working to raise that and get healthier.

I have been noticing just a few people making some changes in their life and it is helping reduce the stress in their own lives.  Some are eating healthier, working out more, dropping unhealthy relationships (including on Facebook and Google+) and even changing jobs.  These folks so far are already looking happier. 

So folks, if there is something you really want to work on, try reducing as much stress out of your life.  You'll be amazed how it will help just about everything else.

Later.......

Pretty excited!!!

So I haven't told you guys how I did in the Fall of 2011 so here it goes.  Man was that a challenging semester.  2 classes with constant homework, 1 class with a paper due every week, 16 hours of classroom observation with one district being difficult until the last minute and workouts for 6 straight weeks (once a week).  I ended up doing very well with an "A" in College Algebra, "B"s in Elementary Spanish I and Intro to Teaching and a "C" in Concepts of Physical activity, which should have been the easiest class.  Oh well.

Choosing classes for the Spring semester posed some hurdles including deciding if I wanted to continue with espanol.  I ended up registering for it.  My other two classes were no brainers where I will be taking Intro to Special Populations, my second teaching course, and Foundations of Math/Teach I.  I had my first class today in Foundations and it was cool.  The teacher was very interesting and seems like this class will be fun.  The only other major hurdle, that is going on, is financial aid. I hope it gets resolved very soon.

Oh well, like I said before my first class tonight was fun and I am looking forward to more sessions.  Friday are my Special Populations and Spanish 2 classes.  Kind of glad the semester has started.

More soon............I promise.
