I'm Back! (Hopefully)

Hello to anyone who reads this blog! Which may only be my best friend Karlee (Hi Karlee!). That's okay. I know I have not posted since December which is crazy. A lot in my life has changed since then and there have been things in my life I have been working on since August without ever mentioning them on here.

I am 2 and half days being done with my first year teaching. This statement is crazy to me! I cannot believe the year has gone so quickly. I cannot believe I am about to send my first class of students onto 3rd grade.

Since summer is starting soon I am hoping to make this a part of my routine (eye roll if you have heard me say this before). I know I have said this before and it has never happened, but I am really hoping that with some of the other changes I have made I can get this to be part of my routine. I really do enjoy it, even if it is just for me to go back an read in my old age.

I will be letting you in on some of the bigger changes that have happened in my life since I have been away. Trust me this is nothing super exciting, it is mainly self care that I have been working on. There will also be a post reflecting on my first year of teaching.

Please let me know if you have any requests. I have mainly stopped posting in the past because my life is pretty boring and I run out of ideas of things to write about.

One of my goals for summer 2018 is to make this a part of my routine. We will see how that goes!

'Tis the Season

I am going to try to blog every day in the month of December starting today (December 2) and ending on December 31. I am hoping this goes well and I can get a schedule. I love blogging, but I feel like I run out of ideas and do not know what to write.

For this first post, I am going to tell you my December Goals. I am going to keep this achievable and choose three goals. I will update you on the last day of this challenge. 

1) Continue on my healthy lifestyle choices. Starting in August I began to work out regularly and try to make better food choice. I am currently six days into a fifteen-day challenge. It is going pretty well and it has been a fun way to change up my workouts. I want to continue these decisions throughout the holidays when it can be a bit harder to do this.

2) Attempt to try to get out and socialize. I moved to a new city to start my teaching job. I want to continue to try to go out and do things in this area. I am perfectly happy being at home because I am a homebody, but I also need to try to find things to do.

3) This one should not be too surprising, but I want to try to blog every day in December. You guys will obviously see how this third one goes and I will update you on the rest.

I hope you have a blessed December! Please let me know if there are any posts that you want to see.

Finals Week

Hello Everyone,

I can finally say Merry Christmas because it is December and that is exciting. Since it is December my semester is wrapping up. I am in the process of getting ready for Final's Week (also known as a College Students nightmare). I am a little stressed right now. I will not be posting until my finals are over (if there is anyone who actually reads my blog). Over winter break I am going to try to post more frequently, which I know it is not hard to post more than I have been. But this has been my first semester in the upper level of my program and there was definitely a learning curve.

I will have a lot of posts in the rest of December (after finals) because I love this time of year. I will have posts about how I celebrate with my friends and family. I might be able to sneak the friends one in during finals week if I finish some of my finals early and am able to study without being too distracted.

I also am planning on trying to find a schedule to work with next semester. I am hoping once a week trying to get a blog up, but it might be once every other week.

If you have any blog posts you would like me to do, please leave a comment! If you want to hear my opinion on something or learn a little bit more about me just let me know.

Merry Christmas,
