It's me, Charity

 Wahooo! This was a GOOD week! It was my last week of work for the year, and Christmas party in your lesson week. It was a happy stress free week! Tuesday I had concert #4 of 4, and my last one for the year!!!!!  My neighbors daughters have been cleaning out his house, and putting stuff outside in a free pile. I was outside chatting with them and saw storage containers in the free pile. So I asked if I could have them, and they said yes, So I got a TON of containers. This picture is actually the second time I got containers. I don't even know how many I got but it was double digits.I am going to be SO organized!  There was lots of washing containers, and then after some dried I decided to use some of them for my Christmas decorations. I took my tree ect down before I left for home this year and it was a brilliant idea. I will totally be doing this every year now. It was so nice to come back to  a clean house and not to have to spend my ...

 Whew! Last week was a WEEK!! But I made it through and I'm quite happy to be on the other side! Monday was super busy because it was the day before the recital! 9 lessons, and all the last minute plan for the worst prep. Tuesday dawned COLD and windy and SNOWY. Ugh. It was not ideal weather, but thankfully it didn't get terrible. I snapped this selfie in the parking lot at TSC waiting for Jboz and Bethanne to meet me so we could all carpool together.  That is one happy and now relaxed teacher!! I was starving by this point! HA! Jboz was my assistant for the 3'rd I think year in a row and once again I don't know what I would do without her!!  And my sweet sweet Bethanne! She is a senior this year and while I hope and pray this isn't her last year as our photographer, I thought it would be appropriate to do something special to acknowledge her. So Jboz and I put our heads together and did some sneaking around :) We managed to sneak in a bouquet of ...

So Apparently I took zero pictures on week 42 until the picture below Saturday, and Sunday's Selfie Sunday. Not sure what I did all week other than work, But apparently it wasn't noteworthy!  So this is random, but if you are as fascinated by Polygamy as I am, there is a 4 episode show on Netflix you need to watch! It's called 3 Wives, 1 Husband and BOY HOWDY. Hot Mess. I couldn't turn away. And had to text my fellow polygamy tv show loving friends to see if they had watched it.  Also, the guy pictured above looks like Em's husband and it was alternating hilarious and creepy.  It was a balmy 25 degrees outside as I was getting ready for church. It's Winter here in the Midwest apparently.  Post Church Selfie!  Since it's Winter it's only appropriate to listen to Christmas Music, RIGHT??!!!  That week was my time once again to visit my friends at the retirement home. I hung out on the Alzheimer's wing and we had a great...

So every month I try to link up with Mix and Match Mama for the What's Up Wednesday. It's done the last Weds of every month. For some reason this month she did it a week earlier but here I am on the last Weds ready to go!! So let's do this!! What I'm Eating this week: Well Tuesday night was my Studio's Recital and it's a tradition to stop at Buck Creek Pizza and eat their AMAZING cheese pizza on the way home. Needless to say, I'm still eating it :) What I'm reminiscing about: I have been getting a little misty eyed seeing how much my students have grown, physically and in their piano skills, since last year's recital. They are growing up right before my eyes! and I'm not too sure how I feel about that! ha! What I'm loving: I'm loving the fact that Thanksgiving is over and it's officially The Christmas Season which means no one can say anything about my tree and decorations being up. I'm also loving that it'...
