Happy Friday! Do you see the numbers in the date? I love when numbers do fun things like repeat in the date. I am so excited about the weekend, so let’s get to today’s favorites!
Favorite 1: OLYMPICS!! I know the opening ceremony isn’t until today, but competition has already started!! I watched snowboarding, ice hockey, and curling on Thursday. I love it so much!! I have been bouncing between the official Olympics app and the Peacock app to stay on top of what’s happening. Unfortunately, I had to teach on Thursday and again today which will take up some of my Olympics viewing time. 😉 If you are looking for me over the next 17 days, I will be watching the Olympics when I am not sleeping, driving, or teaching. I hope you are ready for this…
Favorite 2: SWIM!! Saturday was a great day of swimming for Luke! He made our state meet, qualified for finals in both events he swam, and his school won the championship! It was awesome!
The boys have another meet this weekend and I am looking forward to cheering them on to some fast swimming!! You can bet that I will be taking my phone charger so I can keep up with the Olympics when they aren’t swimming!
Favorite 3: HAIRCUT!! I usually get my hair cut about once a year, but my last cut wasn’t quite short enough and I was ready for another already. I cut about 5 inches so it’s pretty short. I’ll try to keep it straight for a day or so, but I then I feel the need to wash it and I’ll be back to curly. I’m braced for school today with shorter, straight hair. The big kids comment on it with brutal honesty and it throws the little kids for a loop. I’ve had kindergarteners cry because it looks different in years past. We’ll see what happens.
Favorite 4: BOOKS! We started our schoolwide book club on Monday and we are reading Clementine this year. It is a hit already! I love when our whole school has the option to read the same book at the same time. We have so many great conversations and the kids love hearing that their teachers are reading the same book!
Favorite 5: HEARTS!! I’ve been rocking my Valentine’s Day clothes this week. I’m starting to stress a little because next week is the 100th Day (I have a shirt), the Olympics (I have some gear), and Valentine’s Day (I have outfits). How will I wear all the things???
Hello Monday
Currently & Hodgepodge
Like I said already, I have two plans for the weekend – watch swimming and watch Olympics. That is it! I’ll read when I’m not watching. I was hoping to get a walk in outside, but it looks to be arctic again! I am over this cold weather friends! I hope you are staying warm where you are! Have a great weekend full of sunshine and books!
