Just now I sold a story, sold a story just now. Sing it with me! http://annaschwind.com/2010/07/19/sold-a-story/ I'm in the midst of my summer training. My brain is full of Montessori lessons. I can't wait to share some of these with my students in the fall. I love the clarity of the math lessons. I don't love how slowly we go through them, ... http://annaschwind.com/2010/07/09/kissing-you-is-like-kissing-gravel/ So I didn't do any yoga for two months. It took only one about six weeks of not doing yoga for what I refer to as my janky hip to start low level hurting all the time. Last week I found a little studio in KC and renewed ... http://annaschwind.com/2010/07/01/the-benefits-may-be-invisible-until-they-disappear/ I wonder if I search the first lines of my posts how many of them would begin by excusing my long absence from posting with an explanation of how busy I've been. Well, here we go, this is no different, but since you've doubtless seen that part before, I'll ... http://annaschwind.com/2010/06/30/852/ Tomorrow is a new day. Six years on, but today was a tough one anyway.

However, since the prior Escape Pod contest resulted in one of my ... http://annaschwind.com/2010/03/26/podcastle-is-having-a-flash-contest-and-other-writing-news/ "En cuanto a la sociedad, iba arraigándose la idea de la desprotección, el oscuro temor de que cualquiera, por inocente que fuese, pudiese caer en aquella infinita caza de brujas, apoderándose de unos el miedo sobrecogedor y de otros una tendencia consciente o inconsciente a justificar el horror: «Por algo ... http://annaschwind.com/2010/03/24/dia-nacional-de-la-memoria-por-la-verdad-y-la-justicia/ Hello, friends! It's been too long, hasn't it? The operative mode of my life right now is busy. I want to let everyone know, however, that I'm getting my own classroom in the fall! It will be a tiny classroom, far from the ideal number of students for a Montessori ... http://annaschwind.com/2010/03/13/its-good-to-be-alive-sometimes-i-wonder-how-i-survive/ I took the dog out again today! Have I mentioned that I'm the playground lady at school? Yeah, how weird is that? And it's Montessori, so there's all that connectedness to nature focus, which means we go out every day without fail. For two days I have driven over the ... http://annaschwind.com/2010/01/06/youll-freeze-to-the-bone-out-there/ Took the dog out again today. Thought about how nice it was that I wasn't going on a twenty minute walk with him. Believe that's probably not in the spirit of forming a habit. Just realized that I'll be gone on Friday and won't be able to ... http://annaschwind.com/2010/01/05/down-came-the-rain-and-washed-the-spider-out/
