I love Christmas Break! It really does offer the chance to refuel and recharge. I only wish my sweet little hubby had the same opportunity. The time off is never taken for granted by me...I lub it SO HARD :)!!!
I am thinking about my littles and what I can do to help them be successful when we go back. My district begins this Thursday. I am thrilled that we have 2 day week to ease back into the swing of things. My sleeping schedule has been that of a carefree college student. It's gonna be difficult getting up and being "on" so early again.
I have The Pioneer Woman's Spicy Pulled Pork recipe slow cooking in my oven. It cooks for 6 to 7 hours.....smells sooooo good! Can't wait to shred it and put it in my mouth!
I really want new sneakers. I looked at many places yesterday, but no luck. I'm picky!
I am so BLESSED! I have everything that I need and many things that I want. I know not everyone is as fortunate. I am a details oriented perfectionist in most areas of my life and sometimes that makes me miss out on the BIG picture of my life. Truth is, I lead a BLESSED life!
Christy,
ReplyDeleteAs I read your listening comment - my toes feel like ice cubes. I may need to turn on not just the heat, but also the fireplace! Best Wishes for 2013!

Thanks Tamera! Seattle is having a sunny but chilly day today. Not complaining though because we get so little sunshine :) Thanks for stopping by!

I can just imagine the delicious aroma wafting through your house right now! Yum! I also have to get in the habit of waking up early. Ugh. I'm a night owl so this is very hard for me!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Christy!
Wishing you and your family the best in 2013! :)
I'm glad I found your blog thru Farley's linky!

Hey Christy! I found your blog through Currently and I am your newest follower :)! I too wish my husband had more time off during the holidays to relax and recharge. I am strongly considering BLESSED as my OWL. I am having a hard time making a decision but truth is I lead a very blessed life too!

Jacqui, thanks for stopping by and for being follower #5! I am a little jealous that you don't go back until next week. The *only* good thing about goind back on Thursday is that I can ease back into it! I love my littles but my oh my, I love me time off. Happy New Year!!!

I just found your blog through Farley's January Currently linky. I like the Pioneer Woman's recipes, but I've never tried her pulled pork. I'll have to give that one a try, because I know all the guys in my home would love it. I'm excited to say that I am now one of your newest followers.
ReplyDeleteCorinna, thanks for stopping by! The pulled pork was really good and it makes a ton. So, my hubby will have leftovers :) I'm off to search through your blog. Happy New Year!
