Good news is my class is finally starting to get it... or I am just getting use to their not minding, not listening, not following directions... do I need to go on?? I can see this week has been better (knock on wood) but then again it is only Tuesday. I can slightly... barely... almost see a small change in their little attitudes, and I am hoping the change gets bigger everyday. I love these kids, they are just really challenging my patience this year. I do have a funny story to share... I have about a thousand funny stories a day, but this one had Mitch and I rolling! Preface of the story, we were at Art yesterday and the art teacher is an older lady, and she has pictures of famous artists taped on to the end of every table.. ex: Van Gogh, Picasso, etc. Now I am going to remind you, as kindergarten we do not go to specials every week, we only go about once a month to introduce them so they will be ready when they are in first grade. So this was our first time at art, and I was sitting with a group of my students and one boy asked the art teacher what those papers with peoples pictures on them taped to the end of the tables were. And she proceeded to tell him about all the famous artists and he seemed very interested and with a very serious face he asked "well who is the man on our table?" And she continued to tell him that that was Michelangelo. He looked at her with a very concerned face and said, that is not Michelangelo... I was Michelangelo for Halloween last year. They argued for a minute and he looked at her and said, "Michelangelo is a turtle... he is the orange one". Not only was it a funny convo to overhear, but it made it 10x funnier that she didn't get it and kept arguing with him. That was one of those conversations I decided not to intervene, because it was just too funny. I had to let it play out. Just thought I would share that with y'all.. I know we got a kick out of it.
Last night we were looking for something quick and easy to make for dinner, so I hopped on Pinterest and found these Bacon, Guacamole grilled cheese sandwiches. Omg.. they were delicious! Search it on Pinterest, you won't be disappointed.
Last weekend, and last night consisted of lots of football. I was not disappointed one bit. I curled up on the couch and enjoyed me some Razorback and Greenbay football!
I have this new obsession with Paperdoll Designs. It is a local mom here in Tulsa and she customizes and makes anything you'd want. As most of y'all know my obsession with monogramming, this doesn't help that. My homeroom mom got me stuff from her last year and now I have already placed several orders. I got one of them in today and I was so excited!! Anything that I can personalize, I am in love with!
| Binder, slurpy cup, pen/pencil holder, SFB phone charger wrap, and my favorite- the HOGS keychain! |
Oh and another piece of goos news... I am just full of good news today. Tropical Smoothie Cafe (the best smoothie shop ever) is having half price smoothies every morning this week. That means I paid a little over $2 for my smoothie this morning. And it was delicious! I actually branched out and tried a new kind and I was very impressed (and proud of myself). I got the Island Green.. it is made with spinach and kale and surprisingly I couldn't taste it at all. It is my new favorite. Go try it.. don't let it scare you because it is green. I promise if it wasn't green you would never know- it taste like pineapples!
Enjoy your week!
