April Goals 2014 & Positive Thinking Thursday!

      I swear it feels like I just posted March goals.  

I guess I didn't realize how fast March flew by.

I'm totally okay with this though because it means

we are one month closer to summer vacation.

You know what that means for this night owl teacher.

NO bed time rules.

I'm such a rebel.

I know you just can't wait to see my April goals, but first

check out my recap of March below

to find out if I really did what I said I was goin' to do.

I'm joinin' one of my bloggin' besties, A,

from The Babbling Box for her April goals linky.

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------                

    March Goals: 

1. Go to the dermatologist.

I have an appointment on March 18th, but it's at 8:00 a.m.

I have had the appointment since last month, but I'm feelin'

guilty about missin' some time from school because

I've been tellin' the kids we don't have a minute to spare.

I'm thinkin' the dermatologist is goin' to win.

You just can't be too careful...especially this

Florida girl.

I did it! 
They said it looks like I've been coverin' up in the sun.

They only chopped off one piece off my back.

I haven't heard from them, so I'm assumin'

it's okay.
Put your sunscreen on people. 
Trust me.
It's no fun tryin' to put a band-aid on your back
while lookin' in the mirror.
Try it...
I guarantee you will put your sunscreen on
after attemptin' this.

2. Find two dresses for a weddin'.

I'm goin' to a weddin' in Georgia at the end of the month.

I need a dress for the rehearsal dinner and the ceremony.

Maybe I need to head to Dillard's and spend my gift card.

I wonder when they are havin' their big sale?

I didn't end up findin' any dresses, but I did 

buy a new bling bling watch instead with my gift card.
I wore some dressy palazzo pants and tunics.
I went for comfort and class.

3. Enjoy a boat day.

Saturday would be ideal, but the high is 68.

That's still a little chilly for me to be on a boat.

The fishies are callin' my name though.

My pink light-up fishin' pole misses me.

It might have to wait for Spring Break.

I accomplished this.  I have been fishin' twice.

I caught an Oyster Toad that I stayed far away from.
Those things can crush your fingers with their jaw.
Yeah...no thanks. 
I also caught some other creepy lookin' fish 

that nobody on the boat recognized.

Looked like a cross between a catfish and an eel.
Back to the water they went.
Buh-bye fishies.

4. Make Behavior Beads for St. Patrick's Day & Easter.

This IS goin' to happen.

Be on the lookout.

This did NOT happen.

Miss Nelson made the beads instead.

You can scoop them up in her Spring Edition.

5. Cut down my afternoon naps.

I nap almost every day durin' the week.

I can't help it.

I'm tired...probably because I'm a night owl.

I was one of those kids that never fought a nap.

I never grew out of it apparently.

I'm not sure how this one is goin' to go over.

I did REALLY awesome with this until this week.

I didn't take one nap over Spring Break, but the 

first day returnin' to school I had to sleep for THREE hours.
It was the best nap EVER!
-------------------------------------------------------

April Goals: 

1. Get my fishin' license renewed.

It expires in two days.

Last time I went fishin' (see above)

I got checked by F.W.C.

I don't know what the penalty is if you don't have one,

but I don't want to find out.

I don't think I'd like the smell of fishy jail.

2. Juice at least three out of five work mornin's.

The stress of state testin' made me start 

shovelin' junk back into my mouth.

I didn't even feel bad about it.

I bought a Nutri Bullet last night.

It's time to get back on track.
Just found out tonight that my dad may have
Type 2 Diabetes.
That can be genetic.
I don't want that.

3. Get more Google Friend Connect followers.
I have 112 followers on there, but 400+ on Bloglovin'.
My Type-A personality is gettin' the best of me on this.
It truly bugs me.
It needs to match better.
Anyone want to be my friend?
Pretty please with cherries on top?!
LOL!
If so, click the blue "Join this Site" button
on the right side of my blog.
It looks like this...

4. Keep workin' on my Project Life binder.

Last month I bought one of these and I LOVE it.

I had so many pictures waitin' to be thrown in an album

and more that needed to be printed.

I just love the simplicity and uniqueness of this

form of scrapbookin'/journalin'.

I used a 40% off coupon at Hobby Lobby to get the 

Midnight Edition of cards and a 40% off coupon at Michael's to 

get pages and the binder.

Then...I went back to get some pens and the punch to round

the edges of my pictures.

So far, my Project Life binder  is a hodge podge

of the past four years of my life.

Pictures are in...now I need to go back and write on the cards.

Thank you to Kelly at A View Into My Classroom

for bein' my inspiration for this.

5. Stay positive in the upcomin' weeks.

Do not let the stress overtake me.

With that bein' said...I'm also linkin' up with

Jennifer from Mrs. Laffin's Laughings for her

Positive Thinking Thursday.

SEE...it says to TAKE NAPS!

If the interwebs says it...it MUST be true!

I'm sure you know I picked that one on purpose to justify

my naps!

Happy Thursday, friends!
