So my husband and I took off for a few days to enjoy each others company which we do not get to do very often because of his management job. Let me just say, it was wonderful. We walked on the beach at night, we went shopping, played putt putt (note to self-don't play putt putt at a place that requires you to climb so many stairs at 30+ weeks pregnant), swam in the pool, laid in bed and watched movies and found a new tv show, pigged out on food and sweets, and just talked. Again, it was wonderful. It was relaxing. I watched months of stress melt off my husband. During the vacation, I feel like I gained some perspective on things that I want and things that I don't want. The water has always had an effect on me, a soothing, calming, life-changing effect. Sometimes, I come back from the ocean and completely reorganize things, or change things that are not all that right in my life. Sometimes, the changes or alterations are so small they are barely noticeable, like trying to eat something different.
I have always been a very organized person. I can tell you where certain files are in my file cabinet (I have 4 tall ones that I know like the back of my hand). My lists have lists. I have to dos, and my to dos have to dos lol.
So I thought about organizing my blog better. This is my thoughts:
Monday-Monday Montage ~This will be where I post my inspiration boards or photo clips in a montage like fashion. I am sure after the little man arrives this day will be dedicated entirely to him lol
Tuesday- Try it Tuesday Tutorials- This will be where I post my crafts for the week or the craft that I plan to do. Hopefully I will be able to include step by step instructions along with photos-the photos are the hardest part because I forget sometimes till I am halfway through with a project, but I am trying.
Wednesday- Wear it Wednesdays- This will be where I post an outfit/fashion/makeup idea/accessories/hair styles that I did. It may also be where I found and copied or altered a look that I found online or on my favorite site PINTEREST. It might also be where I find a cheaper version of a coveted look or trend, my own version of Splurge and Save.
Thursday- Talk about it Thursdays- This will be where I post my weekly rants or questions or thoughts.
Friday-Foodie Fridays-This will be where I post about a food I made or ate or a new recipe that I tried this week. (pictures included) or maybe my weekly menu (especially after little man is here and I work to lose this weight)
Saturday-Spotlight Saturdays-This will be where I post about a product/idea/service that I just fell in love with. Again after my son is born, I am sure baby products will reign supreme.
Sunday- Soul Sundays-This will be where I post about the week, my life, my love-a kind of verbal spew of sorts.
Now I am sure that I will not always post every day as that would take a lot of time. I am also sure that some days I will deviate from that especially if something great happens or I get some awesome pictures to share or the little guy does something to make my heart skip a beat. I just needed to reorganize myself. Now off to organize for my substitute for my 8th grade class -which believe me is not something that I am looking forward to. As a bit of a control freak, handing my classroom over to another person regardless of the fact that she is certified, has done long periods of time for the 8th grade LA next to mine, used to teach me in college, has a Doctorate, the idea of someone other than me teaching MY KIDS stresses me out. I have a certain rhyme and flow to my class and the thought that it is not going to be that way just gives me the hives. So I am going to try to outline for her as much as possible what I want taught to MY KIDS. I capitalize these words because I mean just that. Up until now, each year, those children that come into my classroom become MY KIDS, not having any of my own. The thought that this years students are not just going to be mine makes me sad and worried all at the same time. I am like a mother hen.
