Currently.. October

I have always loved seeing the "Currently" on my Facebook feeds and am so glad that I found one to join. I've joined Oh Boy 3rd grade and I'm so super excited to have found her blog. I just LOVE It. I can't wait to continue the "currently" posts.

 It has been a very interesting start to my October. We have many things to celebrate this month... We are finally in our home and it's beginning to actually look like our house. We've been living in boxes and it's been pretty interesting trying to cook healthy when you can't find your pan. Lol.

We are also celebrating our 1st year anniversary today!! Love my hubby. He is the one who holds my hand through the good times and the bad. He keeps me grounded and is truly my better half.



Listening: I LOVE football. I get up early on Sundays to watch Mike and the boys and figure out my Fantasy Football lineup. 

Loving: Happy 1st Year anniversary. I can't believe it's been a year!! So blessed to have an amazing hubby. 

Thinking: I need to figure out when they are playing so I can get my grading done and get on with my day. 

Wanting: I made the mistake and ate something that I should not have. Living with a  gluten intolerance stinks. I was miserable and in so much pain yesterday. Starting to feel better now. 

Needing:  the past week has been a pretty tough week for me.Without getting into details... . I made a mistake and owned up to it. First, I hate making mistakes. I'm harder on myself than most people are. But, what I tell my students is that if you make a mistake (regardless of big or small) you need to own it and fix it. I  have to model that in my life and I did. It was not met with understanding... I'm hoping to have the confidence to show that it was a mistake, that I respect the feelings that this mistake caused, but that I hope that my mistake will not hinder our future interactions and student success. 

Bootiful: Looking forward to walking with my teacher buddy this week..

  1. Owning up to your mistakes is such a hard lesson to learn. Even as an adult! I am guessing that this was a fantastic learning opportunity for your students though! I hope everything turns out alright... And Happy Anniversary!!!

  3. Happy Anniversary! I have been married just over a year myself, and it is truly wonderful! It sounds like you gave your students some really great advice about owning up to your mistakes! Great role model!

  4. This is a hugely popular anniversary weekend - happy anniversary - by the way. Hey, I hope that your mistake is forgiven - you were brave to admit your mistake, after all. Have a better week next week - especially with your stomach!

  5. We just did a character lesson at school for our kids about taking responsibility vs. making excuses. I think owning what you have done is a HUGE lesson that even some adults don't understand. I would rather someone be honest with me (even if I don't like it) but own what they have done and try to move forward. Hopefully that happens with this situation.

    Happy anniversary too :)
