Feel Good Friday!

Happy Friday!  We're in the home stretch!  

Things I'm feeling good about....

  • ONE MORE WEEK! 
  • Finally having a break after about 12 or so jam packed days and nights.
  • Doing some solid Amazon ordering yesterday.
  • Not even close to being done with shopping, but have good ideas and I think I can knock it out this weekend.
  • Pizza Friday!  We have ZERO food in our house.  I must go shopping this weekend or my children may starve..haha!  Thank goodness we got holiday gift deliveries of cookies and fruit last night, so when we got home at 9:30, that's what we ate for dinner.  Chocolate chip cookies and tangerines are a nice combo!


How about you?  What are you feeling good about?

Grievance Thursday

It's Grievance Thursday!  We are just about a week and a half away from the official Festivus!  The annual airing of grievances!

Air your grievances!  Let me tell you mine.....

So, I've told you all about how my in-laws are taking us all to Hawaii this summer.  We are staying at this incredible villa on Maui.  It's beautiful.  It's all my father-in-law can talk about.  We're going to do this, we're going to do that, blah blah blah.  Then last night he calls to tell me that all the flights are open to Maui from Southwest and I should hurry and go book my flights.

Wait.  Hold up.  What??????  I have to pay my own way to get there????  Quick Southwest search is a cool $5K for the four of us to get there!  WHAT?????  


aloha

Now I don't want to appear ungrateful.  At. All.  However, at NO POINT has anyone indicated that we had to purchase our own transportation!  I don't have 5 grand laying around to buy airfare.  And furthermore, as wonderful as this trip sounds, I don't know that I would have committed to it if I knew I had to pay my own way to get there for the four of us!  

So....now I don't know what to do.  And I'm annoyed.  I think that's a pretty solid grievance.

And...I made a poor shoe choice this morning.

What about you? What do you have a beef with?

Tasty Tuesday - Christmas Traditions

Bitmoji Image
Cookies?  Ravioli?  Do you have a food tradition for the holidays?

I'm in two cookie exchanges this year and I'm not allowed to choose which cookie I want to make for one of them.  I made white chocolate/cranberry biscotti one year and they won't let me make anything else since that year.  I'm hoping to do some baking this weekend.

Also, we make homemade ravioli every year for Christmas.  Mr. Cal's great grandma Esther used to make them every year, then grandma Opal made them every year, now we've taken on the tradition of making them each year.  I'm treating myself this year to a Kitchen Aid pasta roller attachment to make life easier.  They are on super sale today at Macy's.  

What about you?  Do you have a holiday food tradition?  What's your fave Christmas cookie?

It's Monday! I need some motivation!

Bitmoji Image

Happy Monday!  I'm SO tired!  I've been non-stop since about last Tuesday and when I finally got home last night around 6, it hit me like a truck.  I had a fever, chills, etc.  And, as predicted...I have a cold sore.  The last few days have been exhausting, but so worth it.  You saw my table and pics with Sister Mary Jo from Thursday.  Friday we spent all day working on our Holiday Lights booth for the village of Homewood.  Look at all that cider/juice!!

Friday night we served hot cider and hot chocolate and had a bake sale at the event.


Later Friday night, my son had a hockey game.  My in-laws went back home to Arizona Saturday morning (they have been here since June), so we said our good-bye's.


And then yesterday we wrapped and sorted over 100 presents for the four families we adopted....

Feel Good Friday!

Hey!  Happy Friday!  What are you feeling good about today?

Last night's Advent Dinner (the reason why I wasn't there in the afternoon) was so nice!  I host a table each year at this event and it's one of my most favorite nights of the year.  While the purpose of the evening is to "unplug", take a step back, enjoy an evening with friends and remember the reason for the season, it's sort of an unspoken "competition" of table decor as well.  Here was my table...

And....our guest speaker was Sister Mary Jo from Marian Catholic.  She was a bit famous last year for throwing out the first pitch at a Sox game and ROCKING it, which led to her being nominated for an ESPY award from ESPN.  She's just as adorable in person as she appears to be!  


Super fun!  Anyhow, today we have two other events.  We adopted four families from the South Suburban Family Shelter this holiday season.  Everything has to be wrapped and delivered to the shelter this weekend, so we are finishing up our shopping and wrapping today.  Tonight is also the big tree-lighting in Homewood.  We have a big booth tonight where we are selling baked goods, hot chocolate and hot cider.  It's a big money maker for our organization (St. Joe's Athletics), so it's an all hands on deck type of thing.  Everything needs to be set up and ready to go by 4:30.  Busy day!

Hockey and picking up our tree are also on the agenda this weekend.  

I love this weekend every year!  What about you?  What are you feeling good about?

Giving Tuesday

I totally forgot to do this yesterday.  I'm going to feature a Christmas song every day until break.  Today's is my all-time favorite holiday song.  The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole.  It's always been my favorite. 




Today is Giving Tuesday.  Following in suit from Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday, etc.  Giving Tuesday is where you GIVE to a good cause.  Today during all lunches, Bobcat Pride will be collecting change, etc. for Giving Tuesday.  All money donated will go to the Frosty Friends program in Beecher.  Winning class gets a Class Clash point for HoCo!

In the spirit of Giving Tuesday, I have a little challenge for you.  It's a December kindness challenge.  Do Good December!  See how many you can do.  They don't have to be day specific.  Meaning, if it seems appropriate to do the 22nd on the 4th, so be it!  Document it and if you do more than 10, there will be a prize on final exam day.  I've included two different ones for you to pick from.

So, on the first calendar, today's RAOK is to give someone a compliment.  Find someone in class and give them a compliment.  Document it in a Google Doc or Sheet and you've already got one done!


Back From Break

How was your break?  What are your goals for the week?

My break was good.  For the first time in a while, I really felt I needed the time away from here and it served me well.  Got lots accomplished, had fun with family and friends, shopped until my bank account screamed at me to stop, watched a movie, and decorated for Christmas.  Good stuff!

Goals for the week - Get through it!  I am out Thursday afternoon and all of Friday for some Homewood/St. Joe's stuff.  Lots to work out before those days arrive!

What about you??

Thanksgiving Week is HERE!

I love this week.  TWO days!!!  

How was your weekend??  Mine was good. Nothing overly exciting.  Getting ready for the next couple of weeks, so I was super productive.  I got some holiday shopping done, made a super cute cake for my MIL's birthday yesterday, did some more purging from my house, won my $10 back at Bunco Friday night,did some holiday crafting, looked at a house, etc.


Here is the cake I made.  Waffle Cone Ice Cream Cake.  It was cute and yummy!

My goals this week....
I don't even know where to start.  These next two weeks are one of the busiest of the year for me.  Lots of things going on, lots of deadlines, etc.  If I'm short with you all, cut me a break.  

Tell me about your weekend and goals!

Gold Stars or Demerits?


Bitmoji Image
Gold Star for me today.  I'm trying to conquer something little every weekend in preparation for putting our house up for sale.  I took another big pile of stuff to Goodwill over the weekend and I cleared out the entryway of my house.  I've been good about doing something each weekend.

What about you?  Are you giving yourself a gold star or a demerit this week?

Wordy/World Kindness Wednesday

It's World Kindness Day.  Make an extra effort today to be kind.  In honor of Mr. Rogers, I'm wearing a cardigan today for WKD.  Here's the trailer for the upcoming movie with Tom Hanks.  I think I will actually go to the theatre to see this.  



How many words can you find today?

Back at it!

Bitmoji Image

Welcome Back!  Did you have a nice, long, relaxing weekend?? I'm happy to report that the mini break we had was much-needed and I used the time wisely.  

Friday was my son's birthday party.  Ugh.  There is a reason why I don't teach middle school!  
Saturday we celebrated my friend Jen's 50th birthday.  It was a really nice night.
Sunday and Monday were pretty chill.  I got stuff done.  Of course, not as much as I would have liked, but I was still fairly productive.  I even watched some stuff!  Toy Story 4, I finished the 5th season of Schitt's Creek, AND.....I'm not sure how I missed this, but Real Housewives of New Jersey came back on!  I'm only a couple weeks behind.  It's such a guilty pleasure to watch that dumpster fire!  

So, here we are...I think we can start the countdown to Christmas Break now.  26 more school days!  

My goals for the week...
Make earrings on the Cricut
Order St. Joe's Uniforms
Thursday night is a BINGO event I'm running.  I'm looking forward to that being over.

What about you?

Thursday, November 7, 2019

Time to Celebrate! It's Manatee Awareness Month!

I BIG PUFFY HEART love manatees.  I'm a proud member of the Save the Manatee Foundation, and we adopt a manatee every year.  His name is Lenny. <<<--------  This is Lenny!

They're sort of my spirit animal.  They like to travel, eat, and rest.  They live in the warm water and are pretty friendly.  They are also an endangered species.  November is Manatee Awareness Month! 

If you're interested in learning more about these creatures, check out this link....  https://www.savethemanatee.org/

Too Soon?

Is it too soon for th
e "Holidays" to start?

My mother-in-law showed up at my house on Sunday with SANTA earrings!!! 

I LOVE the holidays.  I really do, but COME ON!!!  I'm not ready for Santa.  I think it's totally OK to start prepping, gearing up, etc., but we need there to be a Fall season and Thanksgiving!  The trees still have leaves!

What are your thoughts??

Monday, November 4, 2019

Monday!

Happy Monday!  I'm EXHAUSTED from my weekend, but surprisingly feeling productive today, which is good!  I've got a lot to work on in the next couple of days.  

My weekend was super fun!  STUCO did an excellent job on the Haunted Hallway!  You guys did great and got a big thumbs up from the carload of 7th grade boys I had with me and they can be BRUTALLY honest.

Girls trip to New Buffalo was super fun!  The house we rented was super cool. 

Goals for the week....
Surprise/Surprise!  St. Joe's work!
November Calendar
Student of the Month
P/T Conference Ready

What about you???  How was your weekend?  What are your goals for the week??

Ugh!  I'm not ready for it to be 26 degrees and snow frozen to my car!  I'm tired today...and I have a SUPER FUN weekend ahead...and I'm already tired for Monday!

What are you feeling good about today?

1.  It's November 1st!  I think it's fair to say the holiday season can officially begin.  I'm not talking about putting up a tree or anything, but I think it's OK to start thinking/planning for the holidays.  I like that!

2.  Haunted Hallway tonight.  Loading up the minivan with a bunch of 7th grade boys for the Haunted Hallway.  They get to eat pizza in the teacher's lounge and think it's the bees knees.

3.  Leaving for Michigan in the morning with a bunch of my girlfriends for my friend Kelly's birthday.  We rented a big house in New Buffalo.  It's going to be super fun!

4.  Nick, my youngest turns 13 on Sunday.  My babies are growing up!

Happy Halloween!

Bitmoji Image

Boo!
What was your most favorite thing you dressed up as for Halloween??
As far as a kid costume, I think my fave was when I was a box of popcorn.  I had a FRESH perm of blonde hair when I was maybe in 4th or 5th grade and my head looked like popcorn.  We got a big box and made red/white stripes on it and glued a bunch of popcorn on the top of it.  I wish I could find a pic of it!  

As an adult, I'm thinking my favorite was when my husband and I went as the Leg Lamp and Ralphie in the bunny suit from A Christmas Story or when we went as Shrek and Fiona.  

What about you???  What's your fave??


Tuesday, October 29, 2019

I'm out today!

Hello!  I'm out at a meeting at Prairie State today.  BE GOOD FOR THE SUB!  IF YOUR NAME IS WRITTEN DOWN FOR ANY REASON, THIS WILL BE AN AUTOMATIC WRITE-UP!  I'M NOT PLAYING AROUND WITH THIS!
Bitmoji Image
Today's blog question, in honor of Halloween week, is what is your favorite Halloween candy?? 
Reeses
Dots
Swedish Fish
Almond Joy

Here's what's going on today....

Multimedia 1 - Once you finish your blog and watch CNN10, make sure you finish your Rent-A-Ghost project and turn it in as a PDF.  We are doing something else tomorrow and are moving on.

Multimedia 2 - Once you do your blog and watch CNN, you MUST do some podcast recording.  I will do an Audacity recording check tomorrow for a GRADE.  DO IT!

Yearbook - CALENDAR!!!  I'm putting Leah in charge of making sure the calendar days are done (there is already a stack in the Yearbook tray by the door).  Margaret, you're in charge of turkey feathers.  If you need more paper, just run across to the teacher's room to get more from the cart.  There is orange paper on the window sill.  We need 30 feathers.  Does anyone want to make a turkey body??  Have at it.  It needs to be pretty big!
P.S.  The sub will likely want to eat lunch in the lunchroom today, so my resident lunchers may have to eat in the cafeteria today.  What about something like this?


Production - BE GOOD.  I can't say this with enough stress.  All eyes are on you and I expect you to behave and act maturely.  The broadcast needs to be ready to go tomorrow.  Work hard on that.  In the meantime, check Google Classroom for an assignment that is due at the end of class TODAY (for everyone except the couple people editing)

Business Management - Once you finish your blog and watching CNN10, you have a Side Hustle School episode to listen to.  Once you've turned that in, you can work in your groups for the Target Market project.  We are NOT unraveling your people or going in the hall, or tracing anything today.  Today your job for your project is to research, print, and cut out the products you are going to put inside of your Target Market person.  

Have a great day!  See you tomorrow!

Mindset Monday

Happy Monday!  How was your weekend?  Tell me about your goals for the week!

Weekend was good!  

Nick won best costume at the Halloween party he went to!  It was a cookie jar and a package of Oreo's.

HF hockey came up with the win on Friday night.  My son is generally the peacemaker on the team. You will never see him get into a fight, but you will find him always trying to break things up.  That being said, it's rare that he finds himself on a penalty.  Whenever he gets a penalty, I always think it's funny... Jack in the Box!  Never gets old, even after all these years!



I got a notification around 6:30 Friday night that I won the Hamilton lottery for Saturday night's performance!  We were supposed to go to a Halloween party, but..umm....how do you pass up FRONT ROW $10 Hamilton tickets???  So, we skipped the party and headed downtown for the evening.  I love going to the city.  Every time I'm down there, I'm reminded of how much I love it and how I don't go often enough.  If you get the chance to see Hamilton before it leaves in January, RUN!  It's SOOOO good!!


So that was my weekend.  Now onto my goals...

Lots going on this week!  Between Halloween, Powder Buff, weekend plans, etc, I'm trying to get it figured out early, so I don't wind up like a crazy person at the end of the week.

St. Joe's!  Lots of St. Joe's work to do!
November calendar in the hallway.
Get Powder Buff squared away

Those are my big goals for the week.  

What about you??

Grievance Thursday!

Air those grievances!  
I have two today...

1)  Get your sh@# together, people!  I find as I'm getting older, I'm lacking patience for other adults who don't have their act together.  Don't ask me if things are on YOUR phone?!  Don't coordinate a bunch of stuff and then bail (for a pretty silly reason) and leave me to be the lead of your project.  I have my own circus I'm trying to juggle over here!

2)  Youth Sports!  UGH! UGH!  UGH!  I've got it coming from three ways today!  Baseball, basketball, and hockey.  It's not the end of the world...

  • I'm sorry I don't have a basketball team for your 5th grader.  If you help me find some, maybe we can make a team?  If not, I don't know what more I can do.  I've exhausted all of my efforts.  Help me or move on!
  • I'm also sorry that hockey isn't our entire world.  My kid was sick, has wisdom teeth coming in, and is a group leader for Snowball, so he needs to go to the meetings for the next few weeks.  Get over it, coach!  And my kid isn't a superstar.  He's mediocre at best, so it's not like your leading scorer isn't there.  
  • And I'm even more sorry for the unfortunate fact that my son's baseball team has disbanded and people don't know what to do.  I don't know what to do, either and it's stressing me out.  There are no good options and I can't be responsible for you all, too.  I'm sorry.  Really, I am.

I Think It's Official.....

baking


I think it's official...I think it's time to put away the sandals, etc.  I'm bummed.  I always want to hang onto nice weather as long as possible.  With that, though, comes all the good cool weather stuff.  Holidays, comfort food, pumpkin nonsense, blankets, binge watching things, baking, etc.  

Since I usually go with some sort of food theme for Tuesdays, what is your favorite comfort food for cooler weather?  Is there something you crave when the weather changes?  Soup, chili, meatloaf, mashed potatoes, etc. Those are all on my list of things to make in the next week or so.  

What about you??  What's your fave thing?

Monday, October 21, 2019

It's Monday!

Bitmoji Image

It's Monday, peeps!  You know the drill by now...How was your weekend?  What are your goals for the week?

Weekend was fun! 

  • Dinner with friends at a new place on Friday
  • Saturday night we went to the Homewood Fire Dept. Oktoberfest fundraiser.  I won THREE raffles!  I won a Ring doorbell camera, I won two rounds of golf at Coyote Run, and I won a full inside/out car detail!  
  • Yesterday I had Cookbook Club.  We get together every couple of months.  We pick a recipe from a specific cookbook and then we all meet at someone's house for lunch.  It's super fun and the best part about it is that it's not my usual tribe of friends.  It's a random assortment of people who I generally don't hang with and I love it.


This week's goals....

  • I need to do a bunch of St. Joe's work.  We start practicing next week and I have to order supplies/uniforms, etc.
  • I need to wrangle up/craft Halloween costumes.  We all have parties this weekend, so we have to be ready.
  • I need to plan something for my youngest son's birthday.  


How about you??

NO FOOD SALES TODAY!  

Multimedia 1 - work on your Halloween invitation.  Remember what the rubric says!  This project is due at the end of class Friday.  Do not forget  -  CNN quiz on Friday!  I put a video tutorial in Classroom for you.  

Multimedia 2 - Finish and turn in your Imaginary Friend project today.   If you are already finished, start on your podcast planning sheet.  If you need mics or headphones, they are on top of my cabinet behind my desk.
CNN quiz Friday!
Jenna & Giselle - finish the bulletin board today.  Call me (the sub has my number) and I will go over everything with you.  Everything is done for it and ready to go!

Business Management - There is a review Quizlet in Google classroom, along with some things to review for the test tomorrow.  Do the Chapter 4 packet.  It's due at the end of class today!  

In you blog today, give yourself a gold star or a demerit!  I'm giving myself a gold star today.  I went to the dentist last week.  A)  I didn't die.  B) I didn't vomit on the way there  C)  I did just fine!  
I have awful anxiety about going to the dentist and I normally have to do special mediation, take some anti-anxiety medicine, etc. just to walk in the door.  I was pretty proud of myself!

What about you??  What are you giving yourself a gold star or demerit for today??

My top THREE goals for the week at school...
Get yearbooks distributed
Finish BE Bench Project
Finish Student of the Month Bulletin Board

My top THREE goals for the week at home...
Find 5th graders for a 5th grade basketball team
Order Uniforms for St. Joe's

Eh, no blog today.  I have things I want to accomplish in my classes today, and no blog will help move things along.  

Enjoy!

Tuesday - What are your GOALS this week?

Bitmoji Image

I feel like I spent most of yesterday here just dealing with the Turnabout aftermath, so I didn't get much done in terms of what I normally need to do.  I feel like I'm starting my week today.  So..here are my goals for the week.....

  • I have a bunch of design stuff I need to do for Mr. Gaham.  I may be looking for helpers with this.
  • October calendar 
  • Finish a project for Mrs. Dousias at the Princess
  • Catch up with my online grading
  • Figure out who is playing basketball.  I'm the athletic director for St. Joe's in Homewood and I need to get my team rosters organized.
  • Powder Buff!  Need to pick a date for this!
I have a whole bunch of other stuff to do, but these are the "for sures" that I want to scratch off the list.

What are your goals for the week?

Motivational Monday

Yo...how was your weekend?   Mine was fine.  Dance/flooding Friday night.  I was SO happy to get home.  I'm not a good rain/storm driver.  

Saturday I hung out with Freeman (my BFF), baseball was cancelled, watched Jack's hockey game, and rounded out the night at Fall Fest in downtown Homewood.  

Yesterday I went out to Michigan City to the outlet mall to hook myself up with a new Vera messenger bag for school.  Then did a bunch of cooking for the week.

Sort of a boring, non-eventful weekend.  

What about you???

Feel Good Friday!

Happy Turnabout Day!  Happy Friday!  

What are you feeling good about today???

Fall Fest in Homewood tomorrow, as well as a hockey game. Lots going on.....
