Sunday Scoop 2/8/15

It is Sunday so that means it is time for another link-up with Teaching Trio and the Sunday Scoop.  

Have to Do:

There are so many lonely socks in our drawers, on the dresser, in the laundry room...etc. The time has come to gather all of those lonely socks and see if I can find a match for them. This week will entail a ton of reading for grad courses. I just have to push through it. I also have to get the car washed. It is out of control and needs to be cleaned. 

Hope to Do:

I have been working on getting my promotional items ready for two upcoming conferences. I hope to send them out by midweek....fingers crossed! Also, I want to look for a new rug to go in my sunroom. I want something bright and cheerful. 

Happy to Do: 

The sun is finally shining...two days in a row now. I want to get outside with my family and enjoy it. It is still not quite warm here yet, but the sunshine has definitely brightened my spirits. 

I went to a paint party on Saturday morning. It was a lot of fun, however, I learned that my creativity lies in other areas besides art/paint. :) This is my finished product. (I am sorry about the shadow in the pic.) The hubby hung it on the wall walking up our garage steps.

I hope each and everyone of you have a marvelous week!

Sunday Funday

It's Sunday, so it is time to link up with Teaching Trio's Sunday Scoop.

This past week seemed to fly by, but I did manage to get a lot accomplished. This week I have to clear the mountain of laundry that has piled up...in just a couple of days! We were busy all day yesterday away from the house so that means no cleaning was done. I have been frantically tidying up this morning. I do not like to start the week with a mess. I also have to finish some reading assignments...that way I can get to the things I hope to do. The first thing I hope to do some this week is read something for pleasure. With grad school, most of the reading I do is school-leadership related. Maybe this week I can slide something different in there. As the Instructional Coordinator at school, my office sometimes serves as the dumping ground for new materials, unwanted materials, and everything in between. I hope to reorganize my office at work this week to streamline some it and get it looking cute again. This afternoon the hubby and I are going to see American Sniper. We have both been wanting to see it, so it should be a good afternoon. 

I hope you all have a wonderful week!

Sunday Scoop!

I am linking up with the Teaching Trio for this week's Sunday Scoop!

With our new family goal of eating in, I have to plan our meals in advance. I have decided to do this one week at a time so I do not become too overwhelmed. I am in grad school, so of course, there is a pesky little paper hanging out there for me to write. This semester, I am trying to put myself at an advantage and work ahead of schedule. We will see how it goes. :) Also, it is time to schedule some parent conferences. This should not be too difficult, it is just finding the time during the time to make those phone calls. 

I had surgery at the beginning of December, so exercise has been off limits for me. I am hoping this week to slowly ease back into some exercise. I love to run, but I was advised to talk baby steps...so baby steps it is. The other thing I hope to accomplish this week is cleaning out my closet. I have done a quick sweep of clothing that doesn't fit, but now it is time to do a thoroughly exam of what wear, what I don't wear, what I want to keep, and what I need to get rid of for good. 

Tomorrow we are out of school. I hope to spend this time snuggling with my little girl and doing fun things with her. 

How is everyone's week shaping up to be?
