I thought I wouldn't know what to write about with this new challenge, I mean really how hard could it be? Just bring a coffee cup with me whereever I go! I was walking to work on Tuesday and really didn't think I'd have anything to report. Then, about 2 hours later my teaching partner asked if I would walk to get coffee with her. I said I would and went to get my travel mug, but behold I had left it at home! My first challenge! Do I walk with her but get nothing? Do I just say 'oopsie' and move on? All these thoughts ran through my head, but what was that way at the back of my cabinet in my classroom....? A disposable paper coffee cup (with lid and sleeve!) that I had rinsed and saved eons ago! Score! We made our way to the shop and I explained why I was carrying a paper cup with me (she thought I already had coffee in it). I ordered my drink and went to pick it up. After adding a shot of cold soy to my drink, I grabbed my cup and headed out the door. It wasn't until the moment I realized I didn't have a free hand to open the door that I noticed I had kept the cup from my classroom in MY HAND the whole time. So, I double - fisted it back to school, one empty and one full and vowed to keep both cups and their lids and sleeves at the back of my cabinet for next time (and I'll make her take the other one so she doesn't distract me again and make me forget!). Old habits are hard to break.
