Daylight Savings

March Slice of Life

I had a very difficult time waking up this morning.  I attempted to go back to sleep, but my husband kept nudging me.  I ignored it, but after the third time I asked him what is the matter?!  He said  it is time to get up.  I rolled over and said I am too tired, I need to sleep a little more.  He got up and brought me coffee and I dragged myself out of bed.  I felt like my eyes were half slits and my head was groggy.  I managed to get dressed and ready and left about a half hour later than usual.  As I walked the halls of my school I was wondering how in the world I would make it through the day.  I felt exhausted.  Other teachers shared with me they were feeling the same way.  We looked out the window seeing the snow begin to fly wishing that maybe we would have a half day.

Miraculously within the second hour of the school day my head cleared, I felt  a renewed energy.  I blame my students for catching me in their net of enthusiasm.  My enthusiasm continued when I left the school building in daylight.
