Some teacher productivity happened today!
I went through all the Untitled Documents/Drawings/Presentations/Spreadsheets in my Drive and deleted the unnecessary ones, then named and moved the more important ones.
Where’s my cookie?

My therapist said: “remember that the other side of giving your all is being empty. And if you continue to give your all, you’ll continue to be empty. Giving your all is unregulated and has no boundaries. Give your best.” WHEW.

When I’m not sleeping or snacking in the kitchen, 95% of my time this week has been in the recliner with a book, Switch, and beverage. 🥰
