It's been awhile since I've blogged, so I wanted to let you know what is happening in my world. Here's a recap:
{dreaming} of the Native American project my students are going to do when they get back. Last night I literally had a dream about this. School is never far from a teacher's mind, even during vacation.
{reading} In Sunlight, in a Beautiful Garden, a somewhat interesting book about the Johnstown Flood. I actually never knew the flood was totally preventable. It's definitely not the best book I've ever read, but certainly not the worst.
{crafting} a globe covered in Mod-Podged (is that an adjective?) maps. It's a bit more complicated than I first anticipated, so I took a break from it. I found that is my nature in general. I'm a great visionary, but sometimes lack the oomph to finish. I'm working on that part of my character and making some strides.
{eating} peanut brittle. Gosh, I have such a sweet tooth.
{watching} nothing. Does anyone have a good Netflix reccomendation? I love watching TV series on Netflix. I'm caught up on the following: Hart of Dixie, Switched at Birth, Private Practice, and Grey's Anatomy. I need something new!
{learning} a new love and appreciation for my husband. You will not believe what he can do by just watching a YouTube video. In the past week he's replaced spark plugs, took apart his phone and replaced the broken glass, and is currently cleaning a random part of the car. It looked a little like an old-fashioned pencil sharpener when he just walked through the living room carrying it, but I have absolutely no idea what it is. Hopefully he knows.
{planning} Amirah's fourth birthday party. She wants a pink butterfly theme. We are currently working on decorations, but I'm not sure what I'm going to do for the cake. That is NOT my area of expertise. By the way, I cannot believe my baby is going to be 4!
{organizing} my life. I am getting ready to do another "Happiness Project" for 2014. January's goal is organization. I got a head-start and cleaned the refrigerator and pantry this week. I would like to organize every closet and drawer in this house, as well as clean vents, baseboards, etc. I'll keep you posted on what the rest of the year will focus on.
{loving} my little family. My kids are wild and crazy and I just love them to pieces. My husband is a treasure and I am so grateful for him.
