Five On Friday!

Five On Friday!

[one]

today is the last day of Christmas break...I go back to work on Monday. Our principal was nice enough to give us the workday off today, so I'm sitting here at home while everyone else is back at work already. This "break" hasn't really felt like a break because I've been so busy with the holidays...the last two days I've finally had time to do NOTHING during the day. It feels good, but believe it or not, I'm actually ready to go back. I miss my firsties! They make my heart full.

Can we talk about this weather for a minute? It's currently a chilly 29 degrees here in good ole' North Carolina. It was almost 60 yesterday. I'm gonna need mother nature to make her mind up about what it's going to feel like outside. If she decides that it's going to stay cold, I'd like to see some snow. We haven't seen a drop of the white stuff yet this year and i'm getting pretty sad.

My house DESPERATELY needs to be organized. I look at it and I cringe. I keep it clean, but that doesn't mean it still isn't cluttered. The main issue is our closets. Husband already lived here when we met, and I moved in with him about 3 years ago. Over those three years, we have accumulated so much stuff it isn't even funny--and a lot of the stuff is just things that we had before we met that we brought with us to the relationship. I'm talking things that sit in boxes in closets or on the floor in our gym. Things that could be easily given away or thrown out. One of our big goals this year is to get the house organized! I considered hiring someone to come help us but husband wasn't a fan of that idea....so, it's up to us. Wish us luck!

Is anybody else obsessed with the show Scandal? I've almost made it through two seasons in just over two weeks. I have a problem, and that problem is called Olivia Pope.

I've also procrastinated at finishing our gallery wall. I currently have two 8x10 frames sitting without pictures, ready to be hung up. I just haven't gotten around to printing any pictures. My excuse is that we have to paint and I will just have to take them back down when we paint, so why not wait?  Lazy much? Here's what it currently looks like (without the other 8x10's on the other side). It's coming along but i'm itching to get it finished!
