Five for Fraturday

{Source}

I am LOVING The Bachelorette.  Mainly because of Chad.

Don’t get me wrong.

I do NOT like Chad.  I do NOT like that he is from Oklahoma, either.  No.  No sir.  NO!

But the drama surrounding Chad is so much fun to watch and I can’t get enough.  The upcoming episode looks spectacular, although I’m sure it’s all editing and nothing is going to happen.  But I hope something does happen and Chad ends up in a straight jacket.  However, if that were to happen, I’m not sure how he would eat all of his deli meat and raw sweet potatoes.

Read Sheaffer’s recap {HERE}!

By the way, I need to go on record and say that I love Alex.

But the poor guy.

He’s so short.

And I can say that because I, too, am short.

 

But . . . the poor guy.  He is the cutest thing.  So cute!  And he’s in the military and he doesn’t back down.  He’s not afraid of Chad, either.

It makes me very thankful to be a short GIRL.  And I’m also thankful that my dad found my mom.  Because my dad is short, too.

Maybe even shorter than Alex.

😉

 

 

 

This book freaked me out and I couldn’t put it down.  I was determined to figure it out, but I didn’t.  I was shocked at the end!

I highly recommend it if you liked The Good Girl.

But, if you’re like me, you might want to read it during the day.  With all the lights on.  And no windows behind you.

And your big ole German Shepherd by your side.

But maybe that’s just me.

DROOLING!!!

I can’t.

I mean . . . the turquoise and lime green storage goes perfectly perfect with my classroom decor.  And I don’t think I need any of this.

But now I have to have it.

LOOK AT IT!

And it’s on sale, too!

Is there anything wrong with updating baskets that are only two years old?  Surely someone could use baskets that are two years old and in perfectly good condition just because someone else sees a picture on IG featuring Hobby Lobby’s new storage.

Surely.

It doesn’t mean that someone has a problem.

Or an issue.

 

Alright.

I confess.

That someone may be me.

And most likely does have issues.

Because, last night, I had a strange and weird school dream.  And school has only been out for one week.  I usually don’t have school dreams until the end of summer when school is about to start up again.

But listen to this dream:

My class, plus my friend, Laurie’s class, got moved to a grocery store.

A fully functioning, open to the public, grocery store.

And we had to make do.

Make do they said.

You can do it they said.

So we each took a section of the grocery store and did the best we could.

Meanwhile, it was Open House and my section of the grocery store was being restocked and so there were boxes everywhere.  EVERYWHERE.

I said to the stocker You realize I’m having Open House in a half an hour, right?

And the stocker said yes, we know, it won’t be a problem.

I wanted to give my students a treat (this year I gave them notebooks and pencils) and the treat I wanted to give them was a can of stew.  I wanted each student to have a can of stew for his or her very own!

And in that big ole grocery store, there were no more cans of stew left and none were in any of the boxes.  I couldn’t find a can of stew to save my life.

Go figure.

I also couldn’t find a place to hang one of our projects (although another one of our projects were hanging on the refrigerated doors of the diary aisle).

Meanwhile, Laurie had a student teacher and her section of the grocery store was AMAZING.

And then I woke up.

So . . . in other words . . . if I was analyzing my own dream . . . I would say there are a couple of obstacles in my way to something I want to accomplish or implement . . . and I feel like everyone else around me is doing just fine, but I make it work any way.

Hahaha!  🙂

On Thursday night, my grandpa passed away.  🙁  He was 95 and lived a very long, full life.  And although we knew it was coming, it’s still hard to hear.  I’m worried mostly for my grandma because she is sad, and she relied on him a lot (she lost her legs in a horrible accident when she was 89).  But I’m also worried for my dad who has a lot on his shoulders right now.  Life is hard sometimes.  I’m praying for peace, and comfort, and strength for my family.

Hug your loved ones tight!

Have a great weekend!
