Aloha! Wednesday again? I am a little upset that my summer is at it's midpoint. Where has my vacation gone!?
This week I have a hodgepodge of things that I have been Workin' on.
The first is promoting my blog for Circle of Moms Top Teacher Blogger contest.
There are only 6 more days left until the contest ends. Right now I am sitting at 96 votes. Not bad, but I have 700 people following me on Bloglovin' and over 1,000 on Facebook! If I could just have all my fans vote once I would be so honored! Just click on the cute owl above to take you to the voting page.
This week I also started my 30 Day Squat Challenge. Lori blogged about this and even made a great chart to use. I get such a great upper body workout surfing, but my lower end is not too happy!

A few other things I have been Workin' on:
I have made my own lesson planner. It is not as fancy as some others, but it is perfect for what I need. It has lesson plans, a calendar and a grade book. Once I finish the final touches and get it printed out and put together I will share.
Are you like me during summer break? I have quite a bit of time on my hands and I tend to shop quite a bit. These are a few items I have purchased that I am enjoying.
I don't have the luxury of having a separate office to work. I have my laptop and I sit on my comfy couch when I create. I finally decided to stop using a book on my lap and bought myself this lap desk. I wish I had purchased this long ago!! It is so comfy on my lap and it has room for a wireless mouse which is on it's way!!
I also got these babies yesterday and I am excited to be able to use them in my new planner.
How's that for Workin' It!! Bet you thought I led such an exciting life here in Hawaii ;)
I can't wait for you to link up below or share out on Instagram!
I voted for you.....good luck !

Thank you Lori!
DeleteI voted for you too! Now you are at 123. Thanks for posting the squat challenge - sitting at the computer too long definitely doesn't help the bottom half! LOL!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your vote Kelly!
DeleteI voted for you and I completely support you in your creation of your own planner. I am going through the same process and it was very scary for me to leave Erin Condren behind. While her products were amazing, I was using her planner to the full extent and therefore couldn't justify the purchase. I have been creating mine this week - I think everything you do always turns out fabulous, cute and organized. :)
