Long Time, No See!

Yeah, Yeah, I know; I haven't gotten better about posting things on my blog. But I have a legit excuse...school has started! My first day with students was on Wednesday, and boy did my feet hurt! I decided that I'm going to have to buy some ugly, comfortable, "teacher shoes." Ahhhh I know! I'm not a shoe person, by any means, I like flip flops and that's about the extent of my shoe collection. So buying "teacher shoes" is a difficult thing for me. As soon as I purchase a pair I will be sure to share them with you :)

Anyway, school has started and I love my little class of 11. Yes I said 11! That's one of the many benefits of teaching at a private school, small classes :) There is a total of 23 students in 2nd grade and I will have a chance to work with all of them be it Reading, Math, or Science. One of my boys brought me a rose on the first day and I also had a grandmother make me a cute Tuscaloosa Academy wreath for my classroom door.

Tuscaloosa is getting ready for football season and so are the Fryers! As I'm typing this, last year's Iron Bowl is being watched :) ROLL TIDE ROLL!

Oh I almost forgot!! You are looking at the new Cross-Country Coach for the 3rd-6th grades at TA (insert chuckle now)!! I was asked to do this because, you know, I'm a runner....hahahahaha I wouldn't call myself a runner, maybe a runner in training! However, I'm going to do my best, and hey, maybe I can improve on my 5k time! We'll see!!

Hoo Are You?

NightOwlCrafting






1. What is your favorite craft or type of craft and if you are a crafter, how did you get into it?
I love to craft! Although I have really good ideas, they just don't turn out the way I would like for them to. My favotrite craft I did lately was my wine cork wreath! It's so cute and so easy to make.

2. What shows have you been watching this summer?
Josh and I've been watching Tosh.0 (i know it's soo bad, but soo funny), Billy the Exterminator, Jersey Shore (well I got hooked on this last weekend when they had the marathon), and Teen Mom. Sadly, the TV stays on any channel the Braves play on so I don't get the chance to see many shows. Oh well that's what the DVR is for!

3. Who does the yard work at your house?
Josh and I both. He'll weeed-eat and I'll cut or vice-versa. I like to cut grass...it burns a lot of calories :)

4. Are you working on any projects inside the home or outside this week?
Ohhh yes!! My project is getting my classroom ready for school to start! I have a few more things I need to do and I will be all ready for school to start...well my room will be, I don't know about me :o/

5. Do you have to worry about getting ready for back to school?
Yes! 2 weeks from today...Yikes! Where has my summer gone?!?! Geez

Head on over to Night Owl Crafting and join in the fun!
