Routine

The life of a sub is up and down. Last week I was at 4 different schools. This coming week I'll be at one school all week, but as three different teachers. I actually thrive on an unpredictable schedule. I enjoy it. But at some point routine becomes a necessity. I pretend to run as part of that routine (pretend because I am incredibly unathletic!). I live at the mouth of the columbia river and I run along the riverwalk. It's beautiful and on clear days the sea lions swim along with me.

The month of December is rough in Oregon because it is so dark and dreary... by 4pm. Finally we are in January and my running routine can resume.
