Busy, Busy, Busy!!!

I realized I haven't blogged in 3 weeks (well almost 4 weeks now!!!)

I never thought my summer would be crazy busy like this!! I envisioned lots of days at the pool, getting up early and working out, going to the mall, watching the Today show all morning. Well, I can assure all of you my summer has been nothing like that!! And it makes me a tad bit depressed knowing I only have 3 FULL WEEKS left of summer. AHHH!!! Where has summer gone?!

I even created a list of things to do for the summer because I thought I was going to be bored just staying at home watching tv all day... Clearly, I was wrong. Must focus on completing more things this week!!

I have been busy busy busy with meetings and trainings (getting my PD completed this summer so I won't have to worry about it during the year!!!), working a camp for students with Autism (Tues, Weds and Thurs), babysitting lots, and moving!!! Not mention, weekend trips for weddings, to the lake, going home to visit the family. It has been a JAM PACKED summer so far!!!!

Tonight, I finally have had some time to relax, lay on the couch, watch some reality TV and catch up on blogs! I just got back from Columbus, where we spent the weekend with my family and ran a 5K in memory of my Grandma. More on my Columbus trip, July 4th weekend and moving recap tomorrow (hopefully...)!

And because I don't like to post without any pictures... Here is a picture of my niece in my old cheerleading uniform from middle school! 

Have a great week! Hopefully, I will be back tomorrow with some recaps :)

Summer So Far...

My first week of Summer has flown by, and I have enjoyed every minute of it!

First day of Summer (last Thursday) I went to a water park and enjoyed the lazy river all day. 

Best way to spend a day in the hot sun! I was at the water park until 6:30pm!!!

Friday, I ventured to Target. Of course, the only thing I went there to buy were some Storage Bins... 

and ended up spending almost $100 on who knows what. You cannot walk out of that store with the only thing you went there to buy! That's the beauty of Tar-jay though :)

Monday, I spent the whole day searching for this fabric:

Apparently, every store is sold out of this fabric. Not Happy. I am trying to get things made for my new bedroom based on this bedding from Pottery Barn (who is also completely sold out of this bedding!)

So FRUSTRATING! 

On Tuesday, I had to wake up early and head to a Professional Development on Technology. It was probably the most interactive PD I have been to and I loved it! At the end, you had a chance to win an iPad 2, SmartBoard for your classroom, Document Cameras, etc. Of course, I didn't win anything :( But it was still a great PD day!

Today, I was hoping to hit up the pool and lazy river again after a meeting this morning. But unfortunately, it was dark and rainy all day. UGH! I guess it's a good break from all the heat we have had lately though...

I am loving all the down time I have with Summer Break. I love being able to get out of bed whenever I want and spend the morning watching the Today Show. I don't mind having commitments a few days of the week because it keeps me on a routine, and I'm all about routine and schedules!

And since I don't have to be in bed by a certain time, I'm off to go watch RHONJ on DVR. Did you all see the OC reunion?

Whoa, craziness. I could barely even following along with everything because of all the screaming going on, shew.

Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
