HEARTING the lovely ladies out there who take the time to shoot me an email every now and then for no real reason at all. You make my day, you make me smile, you make me cry, and you make me feel loved. You all know who you are and you all rock! #bloggingisthebest
READING three books, actually! I just started Grace for the Good Girl and also have two other teacher books sitting on my desk near my bed. I've heard lots about Love and Logic and have been reading more about it (here's the book) and I also started this other teaching book, too. All three books are a-mazing to say the least.
PINNING this bedroom over and over and over again. I'm pretty much obsessed with this room.
EATING yummy rustic sourdough bread (from a local bakery!) with butter. It's pretty much carb-heaven and this girl's number one food weakness.
ANTICIPATING Valentine's Day, springtime weather, and a fresh trim for my hair, too. Lots of randomness but it's the little things, right?
LINKING UP WITH Anne and Jenna once again! Thanks for hosting my fave link-up (well, maybe it's my second favorite to The Circle!).
What are YOU up to currently?
Blogging and out-of-the-blue emails really are the best! Well, that and freshly baked sourdough... Sounds like a lot of little lovelies right now - that's great to hear!
ReplyDeleteExcited about starting a new blog series, making time for little projects I've bookmarked, spending time with my sisters in Christ and reaching my goals for February!
ReplyDeleteP.S. just added your button! Love your blog!!
Ohh my mouth just watered at the sound of that bread + butter. Sounds simple but delicious. And those are all things I'm anticipating as well!
ReplyDeleteFRESH BREAD...WITH BUTTER?! shut the front door...i need it! <3
ReplyDeleteand YES i love dana's bedroom (house*tweaking) she is just SOOO awesome when it comes to room designs!
Hmmm let's talk more about this bread and butter....
ReplyDeleteBread and butter is pretty much my guilty pleasure when it comes to food. Allllll the carbs plus some fat and salt, haha. :) Like you said, so simple and yet so tasty!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely lots of little lovelies right now--all of which definitely help brighten up my otherwise crazy busy/tiring AND wintry blues-filled days. :)
ReplyDeleteI know, right? Bread and butter is soooooo good. So good. :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, that's AWESOME! New blog series and spending time with sisters in Christ AND getting things done? That sounds like a great list that I would be allll about. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for sharing the love on my blog--that means so much to me to hear that!
I know, right? SOOOO tasty, it's not even funny. :) I could actually eat the entire loaf, if I don't limit myself, haha. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I keep seeing people pin that bedroom and then while I'm scrolling through my feed, I'll see it and stop. I almost repin it before I realize I've already pinned and liked and looked at it a million times before!
I'm currently in bed looking at the bedroom you pinned on pinterest! I'm all about that neutral bedroom life. I'm also looking forward to a little haircut next week!
ReplyDeleteSourdough bread! Mmm I really need to figure out how to make it one day! Good to see you on Currently again! Have a blessed week!
ReplyDeleteBooks on teaching are so good!
ReplyDeleteI love that bedroom. Especially the gold sconce!
Sourdough bread is amazing.
Isn't that an awesome bedroom? I see it on Pinterest all the time and I keep re-clicking on it and realizing that it's the same post (just a different photo/pin that I see). Neutral bedrooms are the best. :)
ReplyDeleteMy sister makes an amazing sourdough bread and I'm obsessed with it's chewy inside and crisp crust. It's just wayyyy too good. :) Have a great week, Hillary!
ReplyDeleteAgreed! Do you have any you'd recommend I read?
ReplyDeleteAnd that bedroom is my fave that I've seen online. I love neutrals and want to incorporate more wood into my room now! :)
Oh, and sourdough bread is more than amazing to me, haha. It's the besttttt!
There's a two volume set called "Go Ye Therefore...And Teach" by Dr. Paul Jehle. I actually did my student teaching at his school after studying his book and listening to his lectures in college. If I ever have my own children and homeschool, those books will be a HUGE help to me! He really knows his stuff.
ReplyDeleteI love wood! I can't wait to see all the little changes you bring into your room!

Fascinating! I'll have to look it up and see if I can get my hands on it--is it referencing a Bible verse/is it faith-based? It sounds so interesting!
ReplyDeleteIt's a handbook on Christian education! It's basically everything he knows and used in starting and running his Christian school. It's heavy stuff!

I'll be sure to look it up! I've never really learned much about Christian education but I bet it would be heavy (albeit good) stuff! Thanks for the suggestion!
ReplyDeleteTHAT BEDROOM. Now I'm going to be pinning it all over tha place.
ReplyDeleteOh yay, thanks for introducing me to a new currently link-up! The one I used to do stopped a few months ago, but I miss these posts. :)
ReplyDeleteI know, right? I keep seeing it and it always seems to catch my attention while I'm scrolling through Pinterest. It's just that good!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you're going to join in! It's a great one (and it's run by two wonderful ladies who happen to blog, too). :) Aren't the Currently posts so much fun to write?
ReplyDeleteI really like your blog! It's so honest and interesting, and I love the 'currently' posts - such a lovely idea!

Speaking of teaching books, have you heard of the spirit whisperer? The teacher who was in my room last year left it, and I picked it up not knowing if it would be good or not..and I've really enjoyed it! I think you'd really like it.
ReplyDeleteGirl, I'm tottttaly diggin' your new profile photo. That outfit is perfect!!!
It is all about K-12 education from a Christian perspective. He weaves the Bible into everything right down to HOW instruction should take place!
ReplyDelete*~ Victoria*
Ooh, that really does sound fascinating! Does it do a lot of focus on the teacher or on the teaching itself? Sorry for all the questions, it just sounds so interesting!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, it covers EVERYTHING! There are curriculum recommendations, scope and sequence for each grade, discipline procedures, and even WHY each subject is necessary. It is a true handbook on Christian education (when I say Christian education, I don't mean "sunday school" I mean k-12 education as Christians.)
ReplyDelete*~ Victoria*
Wow, that is so interesting! I bet it has a lot of fascinating information and could totally see it being information no matter where you teach--public schools, homeschooling, or a Christian school, too. :)
