Complements

I receive many complements about my outfits, but sometime I have to wonder if it is really worth it.  You see there are three groups of people who complement my clothes: first graders, middle students, and teachers.  But here in lies my problem, although I receive complements from these various groups of people, I never receive them on the same day.

For example, my first graders are little fashionistas – even the boys.  One day I had on a new watch and they were all complementing it.  They have complemented my skirts, and even my rain boots.

On other days, some of the teachers will complement my outfit.

Then there is middle school.  From them I get complements on my make-up, and I think to myself “Self, do I really want complements on my make-up from junior high students?”

So I find myself in a predicament.  I must admit that I like to receive complements, but I never receive these complements on the same day.  I must have extremes in my wardrobe.  One day it will be by first graders, another by the teacher, and then another day from the middle schoolers.  I have decided that I must have several nice outfits because I am getting complements  I just wish that they would happen on the same day.

I’m Moving… not!

So I’ve been mulling over my next post for a while.  I have finally concluded on what to write about it.

I almost moved to Hawaii on February 12.  I had a job opportunity that was going to take me to Hawaii.  Well, it obviously wasn’t God’s will.  I am still here in California, but I might move there this summer… we’ll see.

November!!

I love November!!  Of the twelve months in the year, November has to be my favorite.  The following is a list of why I love November so much:

1. November has the perfect weather.  I get the perfect combo of warm Indian summer days, crisp cool days, and wet rainy days.
2. My birthday is in November.
3. November is the beginning of the holiday season.
4. I can begin listening to my Christmas music.
5. Day after Thanksgiving I get to go shopping at all hours of the day!
6. I can watch Christmas movies.
7. I can decorate the house for Christmas.
8. I get to exercise my right to vote.
9. And last but definitely not least – GIANTS WON THE WORLD SERIES IN NOVEMBER!!!!

That is all that I can think of now, but if more comes to mind I will let you know.

Cupcake

Today’s adventure was making some cupcakes here is a picture. These are Thin Little Chocolate Mint Cupcakes with Mint Mania Icing sprinkled with a little bit of cocoa powder. ¬†They are very yummy, and of course they are gluten free.

The Countdown

Three more days of teaching. ¬†I can’t believe where the time has gone. ¬†I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as a teacher and can’t wait until I have a class of my own. ¬†On Thursday, my “last” day we are going to ¬†have a party in the class!

Friday is Elementary GSACS so I will be doing stuff at that.

I head down to So Cal sometime during the weekend and graduate on Wednesday!!!

I’m so excited for graduating. ¬†Unfortunately, I have no clue what I will be doing after I graduate. ¬†I don’t know where I will be teaching or what in the world is going on. ¬†Please pray for me as I make all of these decisions.
