Crunches, India, and Coffee

Day 17 of 300x30, and I could be more impressed.  I have seen minimal changes to my body thus far, and most of them are coming from outside exercises (running, weights).  Still, daily crunches isn't a bad habit to get into.  I'll still finish out the 30 days and do comparison pictures.  It could just be that I can't observe changes that gradual without comparing photographs.  Meh, whatever.

On the job front, I'm SO EXCITED for this week!  We had to forgo talking about Mexico last week because our class was double-scheduled for camps and we never had time with the kids together (they're two ages groups, but we teach them together) and I never saw the older group outside of lunch.  BUT!  That should all be changing this week and our country is.... India!  Tuesday they'll get a powerpoint covering general facts and interesting things, lots of pictures, etc.  Wednesday we'll probably watch some Bollywood clips, talk about song and dance.  Thursday we'll probably talk about clothing and holidays.  And then Friday, I'm bringing them roasted chickpeas and maybe rice with yoghurt, and we're going to have our own festival of colors!  I'm coloring flour this week to use for the event, and we'll ask our kids to dress in something old that they can rough up a little (since I don't know if my flour dye will stain their clothes).  I really hope they're as excited about everything as Rachel and I are!

Now, it's off to enjoy my morning and a cup of coffee.  If captain lazy pants ever wakes up, maybe we'll go play some tennis. =)
