January Currently

Happy New Year! Here is my 2015 currently!
I am linking up with Farley from Oh Boy Fourth Grade!


Listening to silence - I am waking this morning to silence. My kids are sleeping in I have three teenagers so I won’t see them until noon. My husband is quietly watching television and I am working on my computer. I love the silence. I rarely get to hear it!



Loving my vacation! I really enjoy teaching, but I do need my vacations. I find myself rested and reinvigorated to teach the next few months when I have a break. I went to Albuquerque the first part of my vacation to visit family. It was so fun love that part of the family! Now we are back and getting things done around the house and shopping. Few more days before I return to school.



Thinking of a new year in the classroom and TpT. I can’t wait until our field trip to the Star of India. Student, parents, and I will sleep on the ship for the night and experience what the passengers to the “New World” experienced.
As far as TpT, I had a great first year. I am looking forward to another year filled with products and milestones.


Wanting to finish my latest project: By the Great Horn Spoon. I am creating a visual support for the book along with questions for each chapter. I am using the book in January and need to finish the product soon.



Needing to clean up my house. In December, we finished the tile floor and had carpet installed. Now, I need to put everything back. A lot of stuff is still in the garage and it keeps staring at me. Such a huge task, but I need to get working on it. Maybe I will do a little today!



Yes to eating right! Like most out there I need to get back on track of eating right. I have let myself go and need to rekindle my healthy eating habits.
I have already started last week as soon as we returned from the relatives. It is always hard to eat well when you aren’t at home.

Maybe to reading more! I wish I had more time to read. I have a few books sitting here ready to be read it is just the time work, kids, TpT, housework, etc. are always first. Oh well, I will keep trying to fit some reading in.

I wish to have a great year! This past year came with some challenges. I am looking forward to a better year! Thinking positive and moving forward!

Thanks for stopping by I hope this New Year is a great one for you!

  1. I always find that reading is one of the first things I enjoy that gets the chopping block with all the demands of teaching. And if I do read, it's usually something for school. That's one of my favorite parts of summer--reading all the books that I put off during the school year. Happy New Year!

  2. Isn't vacation grand? Isn't silence wonderful? I'm loving my vacation, too, but I haven't got a whole lot done! I'm actually catching up on my relaxing and some TpT stuff, so it's certainly not a waste!

  3. That field trip sounds amazing! What an incredible experience for the kids. I've enjoyed having more time to read during this vacation. It IS hard to find time during the school year. Happy New Year!

  4. Wow! You certainly got things covered. That is quite a schedule, though, but I bet you can make it. That should only be further helped by fine cleaning equipment that will help you out with your job and really do the trick. I hope you get the best for yourself. Good luck!
