Some days in the classroom are hard. Sometimes it seems like we're fighting the entire force of the universe to get the kids to stay in one place at one time. Uff da. As we edge closer to the holidays, with a higher sugar intake for the kids, and less sleep for adults, more and more I'm feeling that the kids resemble this little guy:
When I need a break from the momentum, I love to cruise for videos like this. Everyone needs the ability to laugh (at themselves and with others).
Other digital stress relievers I like include:
My Grateful Journal (http://mygratefuljournal.blogspot.com/)- a woman's notes to God about the things she is thankful for. It began as a way to fight her own depression, and now she helps me remember how much I have to be thankful for, as well.
-and-
The Splintered Mind (http://thesplinteredmind.blogspot.com/)- a man with ADHD and depression uses humor to alleviate his symptoms, or at least make light of them for sanity's sake!

Love this, especially for "Uff da." Such a great Minnesota phrase!
I used to be neighbors with "Splintered Mind" and I enjoy his blog, too.
Thanks for the great insights!
