SOL#29: Too Tired

I know I’m tired when I dream about not getting enough sleep
I know I’m tired when I leave my house 20 minutes late and don’t care
I know I’m tired when I walk into school with my eyes closed because it feels better
I know I’m tired when I when I let Morning Meeting last 15 minutes longer than usual
I know I’m tired when I have 9 parent conferences in a row
I know I’m tired when I have a great slice idea, but typing it seems impossible
BUT
I’m not too tired to hear a parent say, “my daughter is so lucky to have a teacher who cares so much”
I’m not too tired to sit in the driveway and listen to the last 5 minutes of the “Off Camera” podcast
I’m not too tired to kneel on the floor and inspect the progress of my seedlings
I’m not too tired to tell my a silly story from school that makes my husband laugh
I’m not too tired to smile, because Monday is over!

  1. I laughed out loud at a morning meeting that lasted 15 minutes longer than usual and you walking into school with your eyes closed because it felt better! I also liked how you turned your slice around to “I’m not too tired…” and finished off on an upbeat note. That’s so you! Great slice, Cindy!

  2. This is super cute. We are all dragging right now and your first “too tired’ section was perfectly on point. You surprised me in the end with what you are not too tired for..this is really telling to what you love. 🙂
