I'm Thankful I'm Playing Thursday

Just don't even pay attention to the title of this post. I tried to combine. It sounds fun.

It'll do.

I've been looking for new link-ups in hopes of meeting some new people, but have a link-up that I have done before and would like to do again, so I shall double-dip and do two.

Promise I'll flip the chip around and dip in with the side I didn't bite.

 *P.S. Googling "Double Dipping" without the safesearch on, may or may not be hazordous to your eyes and your stomach. You've been warned. *

The first one is with Good Ol' Rebecca over at Southern Charm.

And the new link-up for me this week is "What I'm Playing Thursday" with Sarah Elizabeth.

Who is Just Like Me, But Only Prettier. Who would've known!

So first, I shall be Thankful.

1. My Husband. 

Not only is he dashing, nice, and a great cook, he always finds my keys when I've put them somewhere stupid like the freezer.

2. Summer Vacation.

As I've spent the last month completely ignoring the fact that I have a real job, I've realized I'm a little less crazy during the summer months. I've decided to use my birthday as halfway mark to start thinking about school again and planning for  teaching a completely new topic. But as I start getting ready to get back into professional mode I've realized that I feel recharged enough to start thinking about school again.

Don't get me wrong, summer is in no way over yet. But, I am okay with thinking about teaching and not feeling overwhlemed and stressed out.  I guess it's just nice to think about curriculum and not be a total crazy person, you know?

Let it be said: Summer Vacation is not for the kids. It's for the adults who chase them around all year asking them to stop jumping up to touch the ceiling and teaching them manners. The students enjoying

3. The Weather!

I wrote a little letter to the dear state of Maine about the weather that she's been subjecting us to.

Since then it has cooled off a little and stayed gorgeous.

I'm not going to say it was because of me.

But it was.

Hokay, now for what I'm Playing.

Some songs that I've been loving long time this week.

Some more relaxed tunes:

1. You are a Tourist- Death Cab For Cutie

2. Arms- Christina Perri

And my workout jams.

3. Don't Wanna Go Home- Jason Derulo

4. Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)

Don't worry, I promise not to do another link-up tomorrow. I'll try to get some of my pictures from my new camera in my next post, and most likely swoon on about the last Harry Potter movie that I'm seeing tonight.

Mayhaps I shall reveal which bag I decided to purchase??

We shall see!
