A few of us gathered for the TAKS Monitoring Blues Brunch yesterday. Great food and fellowship! Many TAKS tales were shared and the conversation shared was warm and refreshing. Laughter was heard, and gently each of us was rejuvenated and somehow more prepared for the task ahead (TAKS Monitoring). Attitudes were uplifted. How nice it is to have human contact without distraction.
Who would have known that we would wake up to flooding across our great city this morning? After slipping on a pair of jeans and tennis shoes, it occured to me that it had been raining all night. I turned on the news only to discover that Paul Revere MS was in the worst hit area. In fact, I probably could not even exit the Sam Houston Tollway. Guess I won't be walking the halls today - prehaps tomorrow.
As I reflect on the sudden change today - I consider how many times I actually do accomplish what I set out to do each day. What are those obstacles that keep us from reaching our daily goals?

Aaaah, sounds like the TAKS brunch turned out to be quite a lovely respite from the daily grind. I wish I could have joined you, but 21st century skills were calling. We have much to share in the coming weeks. As for sudden changes, I am learning to enjoy them immensely. Sometimes our daily goals need to be put aside, and we need to embrace those serendipitous moments that come. I hope you enjoyed your rainy day and refrained from even thinking about walking hallways.
ReplyDeleteYummy lunch and wonderful conversation. It is not surprising how our district shares the same problems be it elementary or secondary.
