Vanity Redo in our Master Bathroon : Before
We're almost done assembling & installing the new vanity!!

Home Renovation Adventures : The 1st 2 photos are the before & the 2nd 2 photos are the after although the laundry room still has a short way to go.

Good Morning!! Jon has school today, & due to the fact that my fellow music teachers & I formed a PLC (Professional Learning Community), which takes place of the district in-service being held today, we are exempt from "school", which is kinda sad, in that I always enjoy in-services, but also exciting in that I could definitely use another day extremely wisely by accomplishing several things that I wouldn't ordinarily have the time to accomplish, such as scenery for our middle school show "Seussical The Musical" for which mt current art project is 20 life-size brigthly colored seussian fishies, & a couple of evidently needed home improvement projects, including a new tile floors & modern vanities for both upstairs bathrooms, & cream colored plush carpets in all three bedrooms. (breathe...that was a heck of a long sentence) This morning, we're having measurements taken for these particular projects, then mom & I are heading out to Lowe's to pick up a couple of items & search out two small vanities that are modern & sleek in style, but considerably budget friendly!! Well, it's time for this design-savy weekend warrior to set out on another adventurous journey!!

Good Evening!! Just found out that school is cancelled for tomorrow, which is slightly disappointing in that we'll be losing valuable rehearsal time, but I'm always deeply appreciative of any extra time that can be creatively used for preparation/lesson planning, choir & drama stuff, & home improvement projects of course!! Enjoy your blizzard-like snow day!! To all my students : Miss you guys!! Have a wonderful snowday!! No laziness, sleepiness, or negative energy the next time I see you!! Remember, you can't let circumstances dictate your mood or change your perspective on things!!

Seems like the weather has died down, meaning the every-day hustle and bustle of life will soon be back to normal, which excites me!! But Snowmen still make my heart sing!! Don't forget to enjoy the snow!! (Thanks Mom, for the 1st two pics that I took of your adorable snowmen!!)

Judging by the looks of this ferocious weather, I'm pretty certain I won't be taking a trip to Kohls to buy a new picture for our freshly painted Laundry room? It's funny how much we take fairly nice weather for granted. It seems like everybody waits until the last moment before the storm, then stores are completely mobbed, and everybody quickly gears up for what lies ahead!! Well, I should've done a better job at preparing myself by developing pictures for new photo albums I've been working on, & purchasing the products I needed to complete a couple of minor home renovation projects, so that I could spend every single solitary moment getting things done, although I'm definitely keeping myself busy with laundry, school work, choir music, drama stuff, & my newly renovated blog!! What more could I possibly ask for?

White Valentine's Day!!

There have been many references to "A White Christmas", but "A White Valentine's Day"? Come to think of it, that could definitely be romantic! The thought of you and your honey snuggling up in front of a warm fire, hot cocoa, HGTV,!! I could learn to appreciate this, although Valentine's Day is still a week away. Hope everyone is enjoying their wonderful cozy snow day inside by the fire!! (realistically, folding laundry, grading papers, and lesson plans are what my plans will probably consist of, but it doesn't hurt to dream) There's nothing in the world like being safe and sound in your cozy little home during a ferocious snow storm!!

After much contemplation and inspiration, I've decided that committing myself to this blog is an awesome idea. There are so many amazing blogs & talented bloggers out there, & although I'm not yet experienced with blogging, I'm extremely willing to learn, & I have sooo much to say about everything, as those of you who know me could probably have guessed already!! In time, I'm sure I'll get better and better at "blogging"!!
