What Did Your Wednesday Look Like?

I found this idea at Lisa's blog, it's the little things, and thought I would recap my day in a similar way.

Here's what my Wednesday looked like:

Lack of sleep
Rush to work
Word of year
Advisement here

Teaching students
about new things
Looking forward
to what tomorrow brings

Homework helper
Essay grader
Blog updater
Sleep comes later

Since that's a little cryptic... Today in advisement, we were to have our students complete a sheet about their resolutions for the year. Well, now that I'm on to a word for the year, I couldn't resist sharing that idea with them. So, after they had completed their resolutions chart, I told them about choosing a word and shared mine with them (faith and joy). I pulled up Caroline's post at The Zen in You about words and read over the list with them. I was thrilled to see how serious they took this. Several decided on the word "courage." Others chose "health." One chose "improvement." I can't think of them all now, but it was very encouraging to see them give this some thought. Although I must say they made their decision MUCH quicker than I did!
