High +/or Five + For + Friday

My first week back to work after my brief summer hiatus didn't make me as bitter as I thought it was going to be. Curriculum writing isn't exactly physically exhausting, but mentally taxing with all of the nitpicking and over analyzing. One more week and I'm a free woman once again!

Here's my week of good things!

Doing yoga at home with my two free-willed chihuahuas could've been frustrating, but I was so busy cracking up at their stellar interruption skills I didn't even worry about it. I think I will stick to going to the gym instead.


I discovered the blog, All Things Thrifty. It makes my heart go pitter-patter. I have so many projects swirling through my head that I can't wait to tackle!







It's hot out here! Holy cow, by now I should really be used to this since I have lived in Arizona for quite a while now, but geez it's supposed to be 111 degrees tomorrow! Yowza! I am thankful for a working AC unit that hasn't gone kaput (yet...)

Speaking of the heat, I ordered a new hat from KBJ's Monogram on Etsy that I had been eyeing on Pinterest for a while. I'm excited and want it to get here so soon!


The power of reframing undesirable situations always amazes me. It's a way to see something or someone from a different perspective and I try to remember to do that whenever I get frustrated. This has saved me this week in more ways than one.

Don't forget to link up!

AND


 Have a good weekend!

    Heather, we must work in the same district, as I am writing curriculum too this week and next, only I am working on Social Studies. Where do you teach?

      I teach in Peoria USD. That would be a small world if we worked in the same district! How fun! I'm doing math curriculum writing.
