Organizing with a Binder

-
I got a binder for my student! I had been asking him forever to get a few items that would help him organize his life (a binder, dividers, and loose-leaf paper), but I can understand how intimidating it is to step through barriers like that. I can understand how daunting it is to go from disorganization to organization without any kind of hand-holding.

I think, I hope he will appreciate it and use it effectively. I really do believe in him. However, he, like so many individuals on this funny planet, has probably not had many people believe in him. It's a slow process to retrain that assumption. Baby steps.

In other news, it's a cool day as summers go, but Starbucks is refrigerated.

In other other news, I have a bunch of other thoughts that don't seem worthy of being mentioned.

Toodles.

    It hit me reading this. You do have an opportunity to make a profound impact on your students. That is cool.

      I'm trying hard! Most of my parents seem to think I am making an impact.

I cannot tell you how many times I clog my own brain with distractions and noises and tasks and diversions and more. I wanted to write a story, but I'm all clogged up in the business. Thus, I am here trying to drain el brain. Plus, I haven't been reading much lately. I finished the novel I was reading, and I haven't snagged a new one yet. I kinda forgot about libraries. They totally exist, and they're totally full of books. What should I read though?

Braining and Warring

I don't know why my brain is always keeping me awake and making dumb choices! It's not like I don't take care of him. I feed him a good bit of reading regularly. I give him plenty of engaging tasks, lots of writing especially. I offer him a nice video-game dessert on occasion. I remind him of all the bad choices he ever made. I warn him about all the future catastrophes that could occur. And I make sure to drag him through irrational conversations that will never occur.

Brain Drain

I'm trying to write about Starmada, but my brain is a mite distracted. This won't be very long or interesting. (She might have said something like that.) However, it serves the purpose. I'm sure I told you about Brain Drain — at least once some while ago. No, I am not referring to Brain Drain pills in the movie We're Back .
