Currently July!!

Has another month seriously come and gone?!?!
 
I'll be honest I'm not quite sure what day it is. I tend to lose track during this part of the year lol! I do know what time it is though... time to link up with Farley from Oh Boy 4th Grade! for her Currently July!
 
 
Whew! I am ENJOYING the heck out of this morning! My daughter is with my mother in law going to Disney World today, so I actually got to sleep in until 9:00 this morning. Folks, I cannot tell you the last time that I was able to do that! It was awesome! Now I'm enjoying a cup of coffee, banana pancake, and blogging in peace. I'm savoring every minute!
 
Can I tell you how much I'm loving summer vacation?!?! No stress, no worries, need I say more?!?!
 
I'm thinking about my friend's baby shower today that I helped plan for her. I'm so excited to help her celebrate her first child and I saw the cutest 3D/4D ultrasound pictures of her little boy yesterday. I can't wait to meet him!
 
I am desperately wanting my housework to be done. I just got done last week scrubbing my house from top to bottom and is it ever done?!? Nope...now once again I have a heap of laundry to fold. Maybe I can convince the hubs to do it...hmmm...
 
I am desperately needing a mini-vacay away from home. I'm thinking maybe a weekend getaway for my hubs's birthday coming up here in a few weeks. There's something about getting away to rejuvenate for a few days that makes all of the difference in the world!
 
Tips for blogging-- Show a lot of pictures!! Make us feel a part of your classroom and daily life. I get so inspired by each and every one of you (I think I follow about 1200 blogs that I saw on bloglovin!! cray cray, I know...). I may not get to every single one of you every day, but when I do, I love visually seeing your ideas! Keep up the great work bloggers! I can't tell you how much you all have inspired me to be a better teacher since I discovered teacher blogs a couple of summers ago.
 
Have a great Saturday!!

  1. Those 3d ultrasounds are crazy!

    Good tip with the real life pictures, so much better than stock photos or no photos.

  3. Hi Lisa,
    It sounds like you've got plenty to keep you busy this summer! I have an unmentionable-sized pile of laundry to work on. Too bad I don't have kids or they'd be working on it full time! Haha! :o)
    Have a great summer!

  5. Definitely understand about the housework! We have 4 kids and my niece is visiting for the summer! Enough said! The house is never clean for more than 15 minutes!

  7. Wowee... that's a lot of blogs to be following!! I think taking pics is a great idea, as I love looking at them. I just need to work on my camera skills. Have fun with your friend's baby shower!

  8. Hi! Loving your skulls on your blog! SO cute!
    You are right about pics. I get ideas just from looking at a picture.
    I hear you on laundry and housework. We just had a party yesterday so I was forced into cleaning...we haven't had any time lately.
    Enjoy vacay!
