Lessons With Coffee

Awe...,,. Here we go..... Alright! Listening: Boom Clap by Charli XCX I stinking love this song. I get it stuck in my head when I wake up in the morning! And to top it off its in the sound track for Fault in our Stars! Loving: this summer has really just flown by. It's hard to believe that this upcoming week I am don't with summers. I have SOOOOO many projects I need to finish this week! Thinking: I am currently writing this blog post in my cell phone, and did the currently picture with the app A Beautiful Mess. I blog quite a bit on my phone actually but for some reason this was really tough. Wanting: as I stated above I have a lot of projects to get done this week. One of the big ones is printing, laminating, cutting and adhering my new labels to my supply buckets! I'm excited about them soooooo cute I'm planning in getting these into my store tomorrow. What other themes would you like to see? I'm going to use my neon leopard print papers to make some but ...

Oh I am so bad at linking up to these.  I woke up this morning with the intention of writing most of the post and then fixing the last one for what ever Farley did.  Turns out she posted it early due to some nasty house problems and I am STILL like number 100 to link up.   Better than last month just missing it completely.  How do you make sure that your blogs are on time and ready to go?  Do you plan out a few and post date them for later? I would love to know!! OK here it is.  If it is the first it means that it it time to link up with the fabulous  Farley over at Oh Boy 4th Grade!   I love her.  She just seems like the type of girl I could get loud with, probably into trouble, and we would be wearing some ridiculous outfit.  Maybe some day. OK July.  I am Currently: Listening to Summer by Calvin Harris.  I fricken love this song.  I love to dance and this has one of the best beats to flail m...

Holy Crap.  I am out of the loop. Well I made it under 250!  That is good, I guess. I am trying to figure out if you can read this. Ah well here I go with the explaining! I am Currently: Listening: to Ingrid Michaelson - Girls Chase Boys.  I love this song.  It is bouncy and fun.  I wish I could sing that high, but I can't so I mostly just mumble my way through it.  The other day though I had a student tell me that I look like her...or she looks like me....or what ever. I don't see it! lol!!! Ingrid Me - I literally just took this picture.  Yes I am still in my pajamas. Yes it is 5 pm.  NO JUDGING!  Anyway. Loving.  I am loving my calendar this month!  Why? because the end of the school year is on it!  WAHHHHOOOOOOOOO!  I have had a really rough year so I am happy that it is almost done! Thinking: I honestly have been super busy this weekend and am going to start planning for the w...

Oh My DOG!  So is it really April First?  I am early happy that I do not have kids today as I have some pretty gnarly kids that would play some serious pranks on me. :/ If it is the first it means that it it time to link up with the fabulous Farley over at Oh Boy 4th Grade!   I love her.  She just seems like the type of girl I could get loud with, probably into trouble, and we would be wearing some ridiculous outfit.  Maybe some day. I am also noticing how many of my blogger friends are in Texas.  Good luck to you this week with your big testing!  Mine is not until the end of April.  I have about 3 weeks.  YUCK no matter how you look at it. well here we go!  Currently April edition. Most of these need little extra descriptions.  Listening : I am loving iTunes Radio lately.  I have been listening to the 50 Top Alternatives.  Does that make me old? Paramore - " Aint it fun" is on now and I love this...

Oh man, it feels good to be back.  Because my "BACK" is really coming back I am a little late to Farley's Currently.  I am happy that she got a sponsor and it is going on. BY THE WAY.  What the heck is a blog sponsor?  WOULD LOVE it if someone would help me out on that one.  Listening: I know it came out this summer.  I know it is kind of tired.  But I love it and I do NOT care. Loving:  Um seriously.  How can you not love this color? Thinking:  I went to a DAY LONG PD on the book Teach Like a Champion. I am not going to lie.  I like this book, but these are just TECHNIQUES.  I A) do not think that we needed to spend 8 hours looking at examples of UBER perfect classes, and B) think that this book has all the answers - like many of my colleagues do.  There are good things in this..but ultimately your classroom is your classroom.  You have to have buy in before kids EVER will.  SO, the whole...

Well I missed last month but decided to link up with Farley at  Oh Boy 4th Grade!  for her September Currently. I did not read the rules properly for the last question...but I sometimes take what I put for granted.  Which is what she was talking about. I did make the rule that I was not allowed to stay at school past 3:45 this year!   Giddy Up Yall!!! Currently: Listening to Daemons by Imagine Dragons.   SOOOO GOOD!   Ok I loved the song RadioActive by them.  Demons (whoops spelled it wrong in my picture) starts with just the singer (a good looking one) and the keyboardist.  Then it has this intense explosion of all instruments and vocals as you are lead into the Chorus.  "When you feel my heat, look into my eyes, it's where my demons hide."  Dude, we all have demons, many of us have more than one.  This songs alternation of the soft melody to the explosive loud work well in this story of ...

BEFORE I GET TO MY CURRENTLY OK I will be totally honest here.  I have had the dream of having an UBER popular teaching blog since I started school to become a teacher.  I am currently at 4 members, and one follower on bloglovin. ***Hey what's up!?!*** One of them is one of my best friends from WAY back, Tess. She is actually getting married next year to her best friend (in MEXICO) and I am honored to have been asked to be one of her 2 brides maids. Of course I am going.  She is also moving to FLorida in less than a week so I am happy that she follows this blog, it will be a way to stay up to date on what we are doing. Next I have Chelsea from RedVelvetRooster . I met Chelsea from doing a different kind of linky party called the Cara Box.  First let me talk about Chelsea.  She is my first follower, and the down to earth mother of Bubba, a precocious toddler with the CUTEST chipmunk cheeks around.  She is a baseball-lovin-bourbon-sippin...
