TOMS

Quick Little Note...

I am so sorry with the lack of blogging. Life is very crazy right now....

Grad School... took over my life last Tuesday and has yet to let up. Yes, this will be my life for the next 2.5 or so years.

End of school... Goodness.. EOC time is the most stressful, but I must say that my Algebra 2 class is the one that keeps me pushing. I really think some of them care and I hope that most of them can pull out a 3 or 4! Let's hope! I feel like I have completed a huge workout when I come home from school. No wonder I hate going to the gym.... I have been at one all day (mentally and physically) Every teacher will agree.

Jonathan is missing... well not really. He has moved down to Cape Hatteras and I do not see him as often. I can definitely tell that the kitties and I are missing him.. :( but he has already come back to visit, which is awesome!!

Not only is my life already crazy, but go-getter me decides to take on the JV Cheerleading Squad. Oh goodness... we will see how this goes!

Blogging will resume after EOCs are over..... I have some awesome pics to posts and stories to tell, but they will have to wait until I can actually tell them to their full potential! So be waiting.....

PS. I bought TOMS! I just posted a video of how awesome they are!! :)

Path to Non-Perfectionism...

So my whole life I have been a perfectionist... this has become more evident through projects I take on with people and I have to do every little thing by myself so that it will be perfect in my eyes.

Through teaching my perfectionism has calmed down, but I wanted to try something. I saw one of my facebook friends.... actually she was my boss at Starbucks.. :) saying she is a facebook friend doesn't tell you much... anyway she started this journey with a book called... Wreck this Journal....

The whole point of the book is to use un-conventual ways to basically let out your creativity to wreck the book anyway possible... it directs you on each page, but you can step out of the box at any time.. I am so excited to keep you updated on my....

Green Thumb?

So my green thumb is trying to come out! This past Sunday my Mom helped me change my sad little shabby patio into a dream and it couldn't have turned out any better! I am so in love with it.

I love the sun wall decor that we found and the hanging baskets!! Poor Jonathan worked very hard to put the hangers up!

Here are my little baby plants! They are working on growing beautiful!! I think they are so cute and there was just enough space in between the cement and the fence!

And of course we can not have flowers and wall decor without seating and a gerber daisy! I absolutely love my patio and it is such a breath of fresh air when I walk out there. It smells so fresh and I love it! I am so thankful to have the Mom that I have!! Thanks again!!

Ok, so with all these makeovers in my apartment I have run out of things to makeover... anyone want a room makeover?

Last little bit.... is anyone reading this?!

I am beginning to think I am talking to no one....
