{Crazy week, ends with a relaxing weekend}

I can't believe the week I had.  More unbelievable to me is that I survived it and it ended fantastic!  It started with so many deadlines and paperwork to do for work.  Plus I was preparing ( and a bit nervous) for an observation I was having.  But everything ended great!  My observation went well and all the review for my student's paid off!  I started to grade their finals and so far they are doing great!  So happy and proud that they studied and all their hard work paid off!  Watching Stand and Deliver next week to give them a break ;)


So this week I'm relaxing, oh yay!!!

{Sunday Morning Shopping}

With dogs and having lots of tile flooring all kinds of spots arrive (water, dirt, food, etc).  So I finally decided to purchase a steam mop.  I have been debating it for many months and after looking at reviews and prices I chose the Shark Steam Pocket Mop:

Can't wait for it to arrive and so looking forward to the amazing (so says reviews) cleaning job it will do!  

{I'm gonna flake}

Not too excited about this 50 day challenge.  The topics are kind of odd, and I only started it thinking I didn't have too much to write about....boy was I wrong.  My dogs are at their grand-ma's house (my mother, she refers to them as her grand-doggers)  Well. I get a text from her this morning say "Why did the grandma take a shower with her granddog sasha basha?"  Seriously!!! Why would she??  So I called her at lunch and got the scoop.  Sasha was sprayed by a skrunk!! Awesome....thanks mom for watching the pups ;)

{ok...maybe tomorrow}

Day 16: Provide pictures of 5 celebrity crushes

So I've been thinking of blogging all day. Which has been a very busy day due to the celebrating of Pi. But I am currently blogging from my iPod touch, which isn't the easiest to post everything I really want to display. So another day must go by before I post the pics of my 5 celebrity crushes. Till then, adios!

Day 14: A song from your childhood


The first song I ever learned was "Last Kiss".  It's definitely not a usual child song and actually a very sad song.  But I loved singing it and still know all the lyrics by heart.


Day 15: A letter to someone you wish you could meet


.....not really sure if I want to continue this 50 day challenge.  I can't think of someone I would want to meet and no idea what I would say to them.

{the weekend is here...yay!!}

 Day 13: Whatever tickles your fancy 


I am going to blog about my excitement for the week to be over and the weekend to begin.  I really have no major plans for it, but thats the best part.  NO plans= ultimate relaxation!!! Probably will hit up the gym and go see a movie.  Its been f-o-r-e-v-e-r since I have been to the theater, I cant even recall what the last movie I saw was.  OK thats it for now, my hunny just arrived home and I need to smother him with hugs and kisses!!!

Day 12: Self portrait


I took this picture from my I-pod the day I got my hair done last week.  I think this should work for my self portrait :)

Day 11: Share your favorite recipe(s)


This is a very simple recipe, which I love not only because I am not much of a cook but also because its delicious!!

1 cup grape jelly
1 cup ketchup
1 pack of smoked sausage cut up into bite size pieces


Simmer all ingredients over low/medium height or use your crock pot.  About 20 minutes, and then enjoy!


***Add some Tabasco for extra fun ;)
