First Week

One week down, 35 to go. Well it's really more like 2 weeks down. Teachers went back sooner.

I really had probably the best first week ever. Great sentence I know. But the kids were excited, the pep rally was amazing and we won our first football game. High School Americana.

Also, LB and I went to the new H&M in Dallas last week and I bought this dress and shoes (Aldo). Loved it!!

Almost a new year

I am very excited for school this year, as I am feeling very ready to just get things done! This is the year my choirs will kick ass. Not just show choirs, my men's and women's as well. We are doing this!

I went up to school for a couple days this weekend and resorted the entire choral library. Especially the sight reading cabinet. I pulled everything out, sorted, compiled, sorted, stacked, sorted and put it all back alphabetically!

Ben's Nook

I got to go to Ikea on Saturday (dangerous) and I was planning to purchase just the Lack coffee table to replace the identical one we already have. It is $19.99. I spent $250. But the pictures below are the fruits of my credit card labor! I built Ben an Art Nook. I wanted to get rid of the random stuff in this nook, so I moved things around and gave Ben's art supplies a new home. One of my favorite parts is the chalkboard wall!





August Race!

I ran the Mellon Dash 5K in McKinney this past weekend and it was BRUTAL!!! I didn't really feel out of  shape though, which was amazing because I am! Even being just 5 lbs smaller has really helped me to more agile. It was not so bad until I got out of the shade and into the sun. Then, I felt like I was on fire. But, I finished and it was a fun time, can't wait until it's not 10000 degrees everyday!

Weight Watchers

I decided to go back on WW a little over a week ago. And so far, so good! I've lost 5 pounds since coming back from vacation!

I actually don't feel hungry either which is amazing. so, I dropped my goal weight down to the smallest I've ever been. I am taking a small running break after my race this Saturday, until the 100 days pass. but once I'm back to that during school...that should kickstart more weight loss. So, overall, I'm pretty excited!
