Currently January

OK - so January is like officially an hour away, but I thought I would do this now while I had time. When I made it I was "listening to - Gangnum Style" but right now I am listening to something that I like better - Back in Time by PitBull - good way to sum up some of my greatest memories of life - especially the background track of "Baby" from Dirty Dancing. Like some of the pop culture references I am hearing however, if I could understand the whole song I might not like it as much LOL.

I am joining in Farley at Oh Boy Fourth Grade's Currently January Linky Party. 


Those of you living up north (or even those also in Florida) may laugh over my "wanting" statement, but I seriously was not made to live in Florida even though I was born and raised here. WAY TOO HOT this year! I want some cool weather - so far we have had like a day or too of cool weather then it's back to 80s. Ridiculous - that's not winter.

As far as my OLW, I am recommitting to MOVEMENT! I was doing very good previously about exercising every other day, then I had my car accident and I have seriously slacked off because it hurt so much. I need to get back to it though ASAP. My dancing is also a part of MOVEMENT, we are MOVING into recital time which creates lots of choreography MOVEMENT my favorite time of year! Also, MOVEMENT relates to my teaching job, as my kids need to make forward MOVEMENT in their academic progress. Got some ideas you want to share with me for struggling readers & mathematicians? - would love to hear them - feeling like I need some new stuff. Last MOVEMENT word is I MOVED lots of stuff in TeachersPayTeachers and feel so blessed with the positive comments I have received from teachers purchasing my stuff. Glad I can help others. Now, trying to think of new ideas for stuff to make for 2013.

Hope you all have a great January!

  1. I love your word! I am going to try to move more this year, too! Come to Michigan it is in the 20s here. I don't want to leave my house because it is so cold! Praying God blesses you even more in 2013!

  2. I live in Alabama, and it has been so cold here. I'm thankful I've been able to stay in my warm home. Gangnam Style makes me want to move. haha Have a Happy New Year!

    1. Thanks Dawn - we actually had our dance moms do that for our Christmas recital as a "surprise" for the owner and audience - it was fantastic :)

  3. Danielle,
    Come on up to Ohio for some colder weather. We are covered in 10 inches of snow since last Saturday. We started break with absolutely no snow and now we have 10 inches. Yuck. I can only pray from some snowdays.

    Happy New Year from one 5th grade teacher to another,
    Wendy
