I found out that I am old enough to be the grand parent of my freshman students. It's the first time I've heard, "that's how old my grandma is" when mentioning my age. Oh, I've heard, "that's how old my mom is" since I started teaching but never before have I been told that I am the same age as a grandparent of a high school student. I did the math and if a woman my age had a daughter at 18, and that daughter had a child 18, then that kid would be a freshman in high school. Wow. Well, I've sporting reading glasses around my neck now so I've got a grandma style thing going too. Although Josh said, he loved the look and Monika also told me it was a great aesthetic.
It was another great day, wonderful autumn weather, busy students and lots of working being done (below are my metals students finishing up rings). After school, I picked up Balt and went for a short walk to make sure I got my 10,000 steps in. I made a couple of tacos for dinner, watched some news and a Chelsea episode. Erika popped over to pick up some costume gear and then I went to a late slow flow yoga class which was so amazing. I'm so ready for tomorrow to be Friday!
