Marshmallows in my cereal...

Okay, so, it has REAAAAALLLLLYYYY been a long time since I have blogged.  Call it Covid fog brain.  Call it procrastination.  Call it being too busy, or lack of priorities.  All I know is that today I felt compelled to blog, again!  So, here it goes. 

Today is "Dress for Success" day, and everyone was supposed to dress up in their best business wear.  And I totally blanked out.  Here I sit, in my nice tshirt, casual green jacket, and khaki pants.  Even tennis shoes.  So totally not dressed for success.  However, I began to think about this as I was taking on a well deserved snack break.  

I am eating my store brand (yes, I'm that cheap) cereal with marshmallow bits in it.  And I began to reflect how both the plain jane cereal and the marshmallow bits need one another.  If you have all of one, it's nice for a moment, but then it's just too much.  Either too sweet.  Or too grainy.  But together, they make a mighty fine breakfast cereal.  The proportions are just right.  

So as I looked out in the hall to see those students who dressed up, today, and the ones who didn't, I am reminded that it takes all kinds.  We do need to practice dressing for the occasions, as well as using our voices (professional, casual, familial, etc. ) to fit the moment.  But in all of the mix, we are the perfect combination of sweet and grainy.  

Happity Monday, peeps!  May the week be filled with both!
