Monday:
Just another rainy Monday.
Lessons finally prepped.
Hope students are down
to learn today.

Tuesday:
Sun is bright.
Feels like students
Gained nothing.
At least they
Lost nothing.
Goodbye, Tuesday.

Wednesday:
Woe is me.
I’m alone.
Crying.
Why does this week
Feel so long?

Thursday:
Yesterday,
I cried, so, please
Throw me
to tomorrow.

Friday:

It’s Friday.
I’m in Love
With teaching again.
All my troubles?
So far away.

Saturday:
Saturday’s alright.
Enjoyed the park.
Oh, Saturday sun!
Breeze in my hair.
Saturday night’s alright!

Sunday:
Sunday morning’s easy.
But, it’s the end
Of the weekend.
And Monday…
Monday!
I don’t like Mondays.

I really hate talking about myself, but if I have to... I’m K.L. McDaniel, the person behind TheOtherKLM. I’m an introvert with extrovert moments, a fitness-minded person fighting later-age fat, and someone trying to keep life somewhat organized without pretending it isn’t a mess. Here, I write about the things I keep coming back to: movement, mental health, learning, self-awareness, and the strange little contradictions that make people interesting. I’m not here to act like I have everything figured out. I’m here to think through it, laugh when possible, and maybe find a little balance in the middle of the clutter. So, that’s me. More or less.
