Positive Thinking Thursday & May 2014 Goals...

Hello, May.

You snuck up on me and now

I feel like you are flyin' by.

It's time to make some new goals for May and 

knock them out of the park.

I'm linkin' up with one of my best bloggy buddies, A,

from The Babbling Box for May 2014 Goals.

First...I'm reflectin' on my
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.
Fail.  I haven't been fishin' lately, so I am sure 
I will procrastinate until the next time we go fishin'.

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.
Success and fail. 
I was doin' really awesome, but
Teacher Appreciation Week happened
and I have fallen off the wagon again.

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...

Success.  I have 7 new friends.

Thank you!

If you are new...you're still welcome to join in my

Google Friend Connect party.

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.

Still workin' on this.  

I keep takin' more pictures...so I need to keep printin'.

5. Stay positive in the upcomin' weeks.

Do not let the stress overtake me.

We survived state testin'.

Now the end of the year stress is startin' to set in.

There is somethin' every single day on my calendar

until the end of the year.

I know I'm not the only one...that helps!

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

May Goals: 

1.  Bargain hunt for a plane ticket to CA.

I'm headin' out to see my family and Nitty 

for at least a month, if not longer.

I am so ready to see them and I know they're 

ready for me to be there with them.

Family time is healthy for the soul.

Any suggestions on best websites to use?

2.  Write "Thank You" notes to my kids and parents

for all the thoughtful cards and treats I have received

for Teacher Appreciation Week.  I also would like

my kids to write a "Thank You" to our fabulous 

presenters we had for Junior Achievement Day.

I really enjoy this program.

3. Find a new pair of rain boots.

I just ordered a monogrammed rain jacket

from The Pink Monogram and

I need a new pair or matchin' boots.

Last week we had some awful rain and runnin' through 

ginormous rain puddles, water was pourin' into my current boots.

The point of rain boots is to keep your feet dry...not sloshy!

4.  Survive an overnight field trip to Sea World with 

eighty 5th graders and parents.

We are leavin' at 2 a.m., drivin' through the wee hours to Orlando,

spendin' all day at the park and sleepin' 

OVERNIGHT

in the sea turtle habitat.

We'll do an activity the next mornin' and head back home.

My only major concern...I can't shower...

which means 5th graders

can't shower either.

Enough said.

5. Continue to stay positive through the end of the year.

I seriously get worked up over every lil' thing lately.

I need to RELAX!

So...I'm joinin' up with Jennifer from 

Mrs. Laffin's Laughings for 

Positive Thinking Thursday.

My past two posts about nappin' and bacon have been funny...

or at least I thought so.  

I'm goin' serious today.

Hope ya'll will still love me.

Happy Thursday, friends!
