Gold Star? Demerit?

On Thursdays I like to do gold stars or demerits.  What is this, you ask?  

I listen to podcasts in the car on my way to and from school each day.  One of the ones I listen to regularly is Happier.  Gretchen and Liz (her sister) have a weekly podcast that is about a variety of different things, but most of all, being happy.  One of the things they do each episode is give themselves either a gold star or a demerit.

Today I'm giving myself a gold star.  My friend, Allisa and I started a youth group at our church and we got together the other night to plan the first half of our year.  We have it all planned out and we are excited about what we are going to do!  So....Yay, ME!

So, give yourself a gold star for something you've done recently that you're proud of (yay, me!) or give yourself a demerit for something you need to give yourself a slap on the hand for (booooooo).

ED - Day 2!

Another ED day....

Weather is supposed to come through tonight and cool things down.  It will probably take a day or so in the building to reflect this, but at least there is relief in sight! 

So...what's your fave song to sing as loud as you can when you're by yourself..or maybe not..

I thought of this last night as I was driving home from Sam's Club (btw...muffins/donuts are for sale in the back of my room for $1!).  My current fave song to sing is "Love On Top" by Beyonce'.  It reminds me of my trip this summer (and a few summers ago) to New Orleans.  

What about you?

Lastly, have you seen this?  This was cracking me up last night!

Hot, Hot, Hot!

Happy Monday!


Early dismissal today!  Yay!  I like that they let us know last night instead of making us wait.  I always like ED days because I get to be alone in my room and get some work done.  

How was your weekend?  Do anything good?  We didn't do a whole lot of anything.  It's the last weekend we have to veg for quite a while, so we took advantage of it.  

Feel Good Friday!

It's FRIDAY!  I've worked FIVE consecutive days this week.  That's a lot when you've been off for the past ten weeks! I'm exhausted!

However...it IS Friday...so we have the weekend ahead of us!  What are you feeling good about today?  Do you have fun weekend plans?

Me?  I'm currently poor, so this weekend will be pretty laid back and chill.  Maybe a trip to the beach on Saturday since I worked FIVE days in a ROW this week (did I mention that???) and I'm convinced I've lost all my tan!

Welcome Back!

Well, we have a day under our belts.  How did it go?  I'm a bit taken aback by the amount of kids in my classes this year.  It seems like all my classes are jam-packed.  It's OK, though.  So far, there don't appear to be any issues.  

Here is the plan for today
