One of my main intentions for 2018 was to read more and not just read more but report more. I had said in an earlier post that I often get in slumps when all I do is reread older favorites and I ...

Woman Down
So this happened last Friday. I posted my Get Stuff Done update Friday morning and happily went to school, anticipating a great Friday, as usual. By lunchtime, I felt like I had been hit by a bus and ...
January Get Stuff Done Update
January flew by fast! It’s almost to the month of February and I’m not even sure what happened these past few weeks. We’ve settled into the house, for the most part. I still have a few holiday dishes ...
Flu
Man down. Stephen has the flu. He rarely gets sick so he was in a steady state of denial for about 3 days before he finally got tested at the doctor. Since I don’t have it or symptoms, he can’t blame ...
Random Thoughts Thursday
I could pretty much end my post right there, couldn’t I? But there’s no fun in that. My mind is so scrambled with today being a Thursday but acting like a Monday since it’s the first day back to ...
Snow Day 2018
We are having another round of winter weather in Alabama. We had an early December snow event and I honestly thought winter was going to be short-lived after that. I But, the weather man has spoken. ...
Intelligence plus Character
I am truly blessed to have a job I love. Teaching small children is something I get up every morning excited to do. Of course, I love a good snow day (maybe tomorrow!?) like every other person who ...

Running Reflection
January 2018 is off to a smashing start. By “smashing”, I mean I haven’t even turned on my Garmin. It’s colder than Elsa’s castle and I just haven’t felt like turning on the treadmill. I’m still ...
Random Thoughts Thursday
Let’s be honest. By the time Thursday rolls around, I’m lucky if I can string along a coherent sentence. That’s why I like random thoughts, or a big ol’ list of stuff that may or may not matter. They ...
Workout Wednesday- Winter Workouts
I’m so excited about this new feature. Workout Wednesday is all about the many other ways to workout other than running. Many people run exclusively. Their bodies are made for running and they rarely ...
Whole 30 Sausage Breakfast Casserole
It's a new year and a new Whole 30! I took this to school for lunch last week and my friends demanded the recipe so here it is! Whether you are participating in a Whole 30 or you just ...
Mondays are for Champions
Finally. The day is here. For any self-respecting Alabama fan, the day of the national championship is just as exciting as a birthday, anniversary, first game of the season, and maybe Christmas. ...
Meal Prep Sunday
Tomorrow is the big starting point of normalcy. I had teacher work day last week and lunch was provided for us. Tomorrow, we are back to normal working schedules and back to healthy eating after the ...
Friday Favorites January
Happy First Friday! It’s also my first day back to work and I won’t lie. I NEED to use this teacher work day as an actual clean-the-classroom work day, but I WANT to sleep a little longer. I am ...
