So it has officially been SIX months since I have posted a blog. A LOT has happened in this time! We have enjoyed a long spring season in Georgia, Danny had a great first season as the girl's head track coach, and Ruby has been on her first beach vacation!
Some great opportunities have come up for me career wise that has allowed me to learn a lot of new tools, resources, and things about myself as well. It has also overwhelmed me to say the least! I have officially entered into my second year of my doctorate degree. I am hoping the second and third years go by just as quickly!
My shopping habits haven't changed much either! I LOVE the new styles that are bringing older styles back. I always said that if I had to go back in time and live in a different era that I would love to live in the 40's and 50's. The fashion in those eras are so timeless. Nordstrom's anniversary sale is currently my danger zone! Be sure to check it out!
This summer has flown by...why do they go by quicker and quicker each year? We went on a cruise in early June to the Bahamas, St. Thomas, and St. Martin. It was oh so fabulous and just what we needed! Be sure to check out the details soon in my travel section. We also went on our annual family trip to Panama City Beach. Watching fireworks along the beach is still the best way to spend the fourth!
With two weeks left until school starts back, I reflect on this summer and what I have learned:
1. Teachers never stop working, not even in the summer. With workshops, training, lesson planning, and organzing old files, our work is never done. And let's not forget the many trips to The School Box to try and fill our punch cards so when we go for our big shopping spree before open house, we actually feel as if we are saving ten dollars when cashing in our full punch card.
2. Some people really do live a life of luxury as the cruise award went to a couple on our cruise who had sailed over 1700 nights with Royal Carriebbean. I mean, really?!
3. There is always something new to learn from your neighbors.
4. Pinterest really can take up 4 hours of your life in no time!
5. Fast food is the devil, except for Chick-fil-A!
Thanks for reading, and be sure to follow me! I would love to follow your blog as well, so be sure to share.
More to Come Soon,
Whitney
