It's Currently.....February!!

Listening: My 5 year old is taking a mental break and watching her favorite show before we start back in with "homework" again.

Loving: So we have President's Day off as a holiday.  If we miss any days this week, that is a make up day.  So.......I want snow....but next week - after we already get the holiday!   :)   And it looks like we could get some more snow next Tuesday......we shall see....

Thinking: I have some great product ideas - even things I want to use in my classroom - but I just cannot find the time to get any of it done!

Wanting: I have been so tired lately!  I am wanting to spend 24 hours in my bed without any other responsibilities (like not taking care of my family or cooking supper or making lunches or making coffee, etc).

Needing: I really need to clean the kitchen - like unload and reload the dishwasher...... I'm hoping it will get done at some point before bedtime!

Swooning: I LOVE crab meat!  I make a great cold crab dip - it has a good bit of cayenne in it so the spice is awesome!  Here's the recipe I like to use: Appetizing Cold Crab Dip 

You can go to Farley's blog to see what other teacher bloggers are up to in February!

Currently January 2016

I'm linking up again with Farley to share what we're up to.  

I just can't stop listening to the Christmas music. It's my favorite time of the year and the music keeps me in the spirit!

I do love that my house is put back together. All the decorations are put away. The living room looks very empty but clean and crisp!  We have a beach theme throughout our house so I love to start thinking about the warm weather again!  

It was hard to go back to work. I was thinking the vacation could be longer!

I'd really like to get a computer at home. I do all of my work at home on an iPad. My husband has a MacBook but doesn't share often. 

This is so weird but I can't stop thinking about getting new kitchen rugs. I was hoping to get them when out shopping after Christmas but never did. Hopefully soon....

LOVE!  This vacation has been quite amazing! I have loved being home with my family but we also spent some great quality time with very close friends and extended family from out of town. I am so thankful to have so much love around me!!

Currently....the middle of December

Yes...I am aware that it is currently the middle of December but.....here's what I'm currently doing! :)

Listening...I love the sound of Christmas music and listen to it as much as I can!!

Loving....Christmas is my most favorite holiday season!  I love the feeling of happiness, giving and love that fills the air!

Thinking...I need to finish start my Christmas shopping!  Good thing tomorrow is the last day before break!!

Wanting...It is a rainy day here in VA and I would like to put on my pjs and curl up in bed!!

Needing...I like to have the first week or 2 planned before leaving for break so that I can come back with a fresh start.  I am close to finishing but need to finish!!

Faux!  We have a faux tree!  We like the pre-lit tree!!!

Check out what everyone else is up to this December....

Currently November!

I'm linking up with Farley - it's hard to believe it's November!

It is so hard to believe it is November!  I'm glad to catch up on Dancing with the Stars before the weekend - that's my usual routine!  And I'm very glad conferences are over. It's very nerve racking for me - as I'm sure it is for most teachers. They did go better than expected so I was glad about that! And I cannot wait to get my hands on the Thanksgiving meal!  

On another note, I revised my Place Value Math Station pack to include 5 different sets of cards to help you differentiate for your students. It you already purchased it, go to the "My Purchases" tab in TpT to re-download! 

If you haven't bought it yet, you can get it 20% off today only! Click the picture to get there!

Currently October *2015*

Wow!  It is so hard to believe it is already October!  I'm linking up with Farley for the first time in a very long while.

Listening - Disney Junior is in non-stop in our house. Sophia was the show of choice this morning.

Loving - I cherish every day I can have with my family. The weekends are special for us to spend together. 

Thinking - I am so excited to be creating products again. Last year was just one of those tough years and blogging just couldn't fit in the busy, tiring day. So....keep you eyes open. I'm hoping to have it finished next week!

Wanting - I'm on the east coast so it has rained for the past 5 days nonstop. It is also cold...like in the 60s. I only like cold precipitation when it is snow. So I would be very happy for the nice fall weather to start this week. 

Needing - I have clothes to wash and things to prepare before the school week starts. Since my hubby is a teacher too, I try to do as much as I can on Sunday to get us ready for the week. 

Boo-tiful - I love the fall colors. The mixes of oranges, greens, reds and Browns are wonderful. I wish I could win the lottery and shop!

Thanks for stopping by. Now head on over to see what everyone else is up to and link up too!

Currently July 2014

Wow!  I can't believe it's July!!  Sorry for being a little MIA!  The end of the school year was crazy busy and I just got back from a 2 week hiatus to the beach! :)  It's our treat at the end of every school year!   So.....it's July.....and here's my currently:

1. Disney Junior is a must have channel in our house!  Doc McStuffins is a neat show!
2. That I do not have to go to work tomorrow.  Being on summer vacation is the best--especially because I get to spend every day with my hubs and daughter!
3.  Again, sorry I haven't blogged recently!  It's  been a little nutty around here with the end of school and then the beach hiatus for 2 weeks! :) 
4.  Which leads me to say that I want to be back at the beach.  Being there for 2 weeks is the best...I really wish we could just live there.
5.  I've cleaned several rooms and need to finish the rest of the house! 
6.  We don't usually do much for the July 4th holiday.  Our main goal is to stay off the road with all of the crazy drivers.  
I hope you enjoyed seeing a little about myself....now it's time to check out what everyone else is doing...head over to Farley's Blog to see...

Winners - Peek at my Week - Currently

Ok...this is going to be slightly long, so stay with me for a treat at the end!! I am so happy to announce the 3 winners of my December On/Off Math Game!  Congrats ladies...check your emails for your prize!

a Rafflecopter giveaway

Here is a Peek at My Week a few days late....I was planned just not typed and saved the way I wanted.  The pictures in my plans will take you to the products if you download my plans in Google drive.  

It's reindeer week!!  We have already talked about Caribou for 2 days and the kids are loving it!  They are S-H-O-C-K-E-D that reindeer are real and are trying to understand that they are also called Caribou.  I'll be back later in the week to share some pictures of our fun reindeer activities.  Click any picture above to download my plans and get the links to products. 

Don't leave yet...but come back here to check out Mrs. Wills Kindergarten and see what others have planned for this week.

And lastly, it really is December isn't it?  Well here goes nothing...

All of these are very self explanatory I believe.  Our biggest holiday tradition is that we do not travel on holidays!  We do not like the traffic and want to spend the time with our family.  I guess I also should have said that we always put up our Christmas decorations the day after Halloween!  Yes, even before Thanksgiving!  We love this holiday!! So go check out Farley's page to see what everyone else is up to!   And the great part...be sure to get my Holiday Stamping Freebie {HERE}!!!

And I'm going to give my Winter Math Stations pack to 3 lucky winners! Enter below!

November Currently

Wow!  Where has the first nine weeks of school gone?  I feel like we just started but Friday was the end of our first quarter.  It is very hard to believe!!  I'm linking up with Farley for this months currently.

Listening:  My daughter is watching TV before her nap.  She LOVES Caillou!  I think this is what I was listening to last month too.  

Loving:  I am always happy when I get to be home with my family.  We have so much fun together and this weekend we will decorate for Christmas/Winter!! :)  I know what your saying..."this girl is crazy....it's not even Thanksgiving yet!"  But we absolutely love Christmas in our house!  We leave it decorated until the first of January!

Thinking: I've had several ideas of new products for both November and December.  I am so elated that my Fall Math Stations pack has done so well.  I never imagined that I would have sold so many copies.  

Wanting:  I am in need of a nap!  But I have a lot of other work that needs done too!!

Needing:  Yes...cleaning is the other work that needs to get done.  I will be busy with laundry, dishes and scrubbing.  The latter is my least favorite!

Yummy Pin: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/530369293588467427/  This is the pin on Pinterest that you have to check out

This dip looks amazing.  It is from Gina's Skinny Recipes.  

Ok, your turn to link up.  Head on over to Farley's page and see what everyone else is up to.

Happy Saturday!!

October (already?!!?) Currently

I cannot believe it is already October!  Wow!  It already feels like the school year is going so quickly!  I'm linking up with Farley. 

Listening:  I'm listening to Caillou on Sprout!!
Loving:  The cool weather is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I absolutely love the fall weather.  It was in the upper 80s for the later part of this week and it was too hot for me.  The fall weather (about the lower to mid 70s) is wonderful - especially if there is a nice breeze too!
Thinking: I have a lot of planning and thinking to do before Monday gets here.  I have a few kiddos that really need some additional attention from me. 
Wanting:  I would L-O-V-E to sleep in for a LONG time!  Any day would be wonderful!  But I will say, I do love spending time with my family - no matter what time of day it is.  It is those precious moments that you cannot get back!
Needing:  I'd love to just have a week off to relax for a while.  I know it is coming with Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks, but things have just been so crazy getting into new routines at a new school/classroom.  Don't get me wrong, I LOVE being there!  It's just different at times and takes some adjustment!!
TREAT:  I have placed my Halloween count the room for free in my store.  Usually it is $1.50, so catch it while you can.  Click on the picture or {here} to get it.  

ENJOY!!!

OMG---it's August...so it's B2S time!! Ahhh!

Wow!  I cannot believe it's August already.  I am happy to say that I finished moving my classroom to my new school today and got an amazing small business owner to donate a piece of carpet (7.5x12) to my new room.  I'm so excited that I don't have to spend my money to purchase one!!

I am linking up with Farley for her August Currently.

I don't think my thoughts need much explaining.  I will be very excited to have my new classroom all set up and get to meet the rest of my new staff.  I wish everyone a happy start to their school year and for a happy last couple weeks/days/minutes of summer!! :)
