Currently August

My oh my, another month has come and gone too fast. Summer is almost over and another school year is quickly approaching. Schools have even started in some places! I have a friend who lives in Georgia, and her children started school TODAY! Yes, they get out of school earlier (in May), but it's only August 1st!!!! I'm glad I still have about two weeks left until school starts. I have my first meeting of the school year on Monday. I do not look forward to waking up early, but I am excited for what is to come this school year! Also, I look forward to seeing some of the kiddos that I had last year! Also, today is August 1st, and you know what that means....time for another Currently. Head over to Oh' Boy 4th Grade to link up with Farley for her monthly Currently linky party.

Here is my August Currently:



LISTENING to the television in the other room. Right now, my niece is watching Peg Plus Cat. It's about President George Washington, so I love it because it's educational! My nephew is having a friend spend the night tonight, and they are in his room playing XBOX right now. I keep hearing bursts of laughter every couple of minutes, and LOVE that they are having a great time!!

LOVING yes, you read it right, I'm sort of glad that Summer is coming to an end, and that Fall is closer to being here. I love colder weather, bonfires, the leaves changing colors, and cooking in the crock pot. It's also been so hot and muggy here lately, that I'm really looking forward to opening up the doors and windows and letting the air flow through the house while I have fall scented candles lit everywhere! I LOVE FALL!!

THINKING that it's awesome that I have completed day 1 of my diet. I just started today, and I'm doing a 90 day challenge with Body By Vi. I really needed to make a change and do something to get some of this weight off, and I've done the challenge before (but didn't stick with it), and it worked! So, I'm excited for this journey and sticking with it! (Despite the headache I have had all day, lol) I know I CAN do this!

WANTING to change up my blog design to something new, but I'm not sure to what? I like the design I have now, but I sorta want something different. I'm going to think about it over the next month, and who knows, maybe the next time you see my page you will see something a different!

 NEEDING to get my plans for the start of school down on paper! I already have a ton of ideas, and I know how I want to start out the new year, I just have to write it all down and make it official. I'm really excited for the new school year!

And last but not least, my official first day of all day prepping is August 11th, and the kids start on August 13th. That's less than 2 weeks away!!!! I do have a meeting this coming Monday, which will start the year out, but I have to go all day on the 11th, so I figured that is my "official" start day.

Good luck to everyone with the start of your school year! I look forward to seeing classroom pictures and reading blog posts of how the new school year is going for everyone!

Until next time,
