The article that I found suggested that one of the ways to get yourself out of a funk is to pamper yourself. I decided that this was an easy one to accomplish, so I stopped by Wal-mart on my way home last night. I had a gift card from a student, and decide it to spend it on something that I would not normally buy for myself. I walked past the very practical (but very nice) first aide kit, and wandered around like a kid in a candy store. I wandered through the hair & beauty supplies, but didn't find anything that felt quite right. I skipped the candy isle (that's all I need!) and passed this:
Halloween Mac & Cheese! I couldn't pass it up. Who doesn't love pumpkin shaped noodles? I am so excited to eat it!
I decided to spend the rest of my gift card on these:

You make me laugh. Your nieces would sure love to help you get out of your funk with mac and cheese like that :)
I think all teachers go through the "funk". It probably boils down to never having any time or energy for yourself. I'm glad you pampered yourself-even if only buying Mac and Cheese and some nuts. Good for you!
Those do look delicious. It's never fun to be in a funk! Hope those help.
What darling Mac n' Cheese! I may seek some of those out for myself! I'm glad you decided to pamper yourself with some of your favorite foods. :)
Sorry about your funk - and I hope treating yourself helps....halloween mac & cheese - that's just too cool! I totally understand the funk - and how hard it is to overcome. Sometimes my funk comes from my laziness in the spirituality department. Other times - I just need a break. I vote you take a day off! :D
