Thankful Thursday- last weeks that never posted


Thankful Thursday:
So, let’s just list this one out   I am thankful someone told me to write lists!!  Such a great way to track things
  • Planning periods:  With it being FCAT week here in Florida our schedules are out of wack.  With that being said, planning periods are nonexistent most days for most teachers.  It was so nice to get a break because having students testing and then “hanging” around it killer for them. They were just so excited when I told them they did not have another section.  So, having a planning period I am very grateful for.
  • Friends who TRI:  What would I do without great friends with great words of wisdom for a beginner who is learning to TRI.  This week I went to Jen’s to try her Road bike and she had so much wonderful info for me.  Yes, it went in one ear and out the other because there is just so much to know.  
  • Ebates:  I have had a membership for ebates.com and a good friend told me about it and I bought a bracelet from jewelmint.com because it was only $11.99 and after seeing Meghan’s Twitter how she got $15.00 back so I jumped on that offer.  I made 3 dollars off of a very pretty bracelet.  
  • Whole Foods Market:  This has officially become my favorite food store, besides Publix of course.  They have such a great selection of fish and premade meals.  I stocked up on shrimp which as on sale for $5.99, quinoa burgers, tofu, and  brown rice wasabi crackers.  I just enjoy the fresh salad bar and the soup selections.  And, if you bring your own bag they will either give you $.10 or donate it if you choose.  
  • A broom:  I just got new students today.  They are three guinea pigs.  My students LOVED them, but boy do they make a mess!!!  There is hay everywhere and they were pooping and peeing everywhere.  On that note, I am thankful for Clorox wipes.
On that note, I am always thankful for my loyal readers and even more thankful for all your kind words.  I LOVE comments!!

Thankful Thursday

It is spring break!!! I am therefore thankful for a lot of things!!

1. Roommates :)  I do not know what I would do without her.  She washes my dishes, cleans our apartments, listens to my crazy antics and buys me chocolate cake when I am craving it!  (But that will no longer happen, wait till tomorrow's post).    She made me an amazing breakfast this morning.  Be jealous, she is a great roommate
Egg beaters, bagel thin and turkey bacon ;)
2. Spring Break- This week had been filled with things to do, but I finally was able to sleep in today!  I slept till 8:00.  I am thankful for not having to set an alarm clock today.  I managed to shop and spend money I do not have but wish I did, go to the beach for the first time this season, go to Disney, get plenty of Dr. Appointments in and spring clean.

3. Hunger Games.  I have not put this book down this week!  I begged my students, friends and even my Coach for the books!  I am almost done with three and then it is show time.  I have already purchased my tickets for the midnight premiere.  Oh, Liam, I am coming for you!!
Hunger Games IMDB because apparently it won't link to youtube L(


4.  Blogs- Spring break has left me with plenty of time to read blogs!! I am obsessed.!! Please leave your blog recommendations for me here! Thanks:)

What are you thankful for?  What gets you through the week?
