There are SO many linky parties happening right now! Usually, I'd do one per day, but since we're having a lazy snow day around here (not hungover... just relaxing), I've got nothing but time. First up is Currently with
Farley:
I also want to link up with Diane at
5th in the Middle, who has asked us to share our blogging resolutions. My blog grew so much in 2013, and I'm super excited to see how it evolves in this year to come!
Finally, I'm linking up with Tara at
4th Grade Frolics who has asked us to share one thing we're going to do for ourselves this year.
This might sound dumb, but the biggest gift I can give myself is to take care of myself. For me, this means learning to say no, spending money and time on things I don't necessarily need but make me feel really good. This includes manicures and pedicures, getting out of bed right away so I have time to really fix my hair and put on a little makeup each day, not resorting to a school sweatshirt and jeans all the time, and planning meals ahead of time so I don't have to stress about it at the last minute or resort to eating out. This is about the little things I can do to make myself more of a priority.
If you are new to my blog, I thank you for visiting and hope you stick around to see what 2014 has in store!
This is my first linky party with the currently post! I'm so thankful for the blogging community, it's been a blessing as a first year teacher! Your blog is super cute and I love all of your currently posts! I agree, Monday will be rough!! :) If you get a chance, check out my blog! Any advice I would gladly accept!! Mrs. Thomas's Class
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed night :)
Did I just stumble onto another middle school blog through Currently? Why yes, I think I did! Happy, happy happy.
ReplyDelete2 of the things you mentioned I have JUST been thinking about this week: getting up earlier so I can really look nice for the day and planning meals in advance.
I tend to procrastinate. Well, I actually just procrastinate all the time which causes undue stress in my life. I have got to get better at this!

I am not giving up sweatshirts and jeans...no way Jose! Lol...I'm the world's worst about rolling out of bed after hitting the alarm a billion times, rolling into the shower, throwing clothes on and running out the door. I'm NOT a morning person. I haven't been since I was little. I don't think it's going to happen any time soon. Lol

Keep Calm and Hoot On
Thanks for linking up;0) You're right....if we don't take care of ourselves, no one else will. That was what prompted me to write that post....I have to take care of me (moving me up on the list) not in a selfish way but a way that will make me happier and then the people around me too;) Happy New Year:) Good luck with your goal:)

Hi Miss Lifesaver! I just found your blog through Farley's Currently blog hop and am so intrigued to have found someone who has been continually blogging for so long!

Scheduling posts ahead of time has totally saved my sanity many times. I highly recommend it! Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteI don't think your 1 for me is dumb at all! We all need to take better care of ourselves. Teachers tend to but the needs of other ahead of our own all the time! Have a wonderful year!
