Something Good Linky!

January 15, 2013

Do you ever leave school feeling like you had one of Alexander’s terrible, horrible, no good, very bad days? Okay, okay… maybe it’s not that bad, but I think we’ve all been there at one time or another after a slump of a day. It seems to happen to me during this time of the year. You know… the cold, wet days of indoor recess piled on top of assessing, assessing, assessing to prepare for the season of testing, testing, testing that’s around the corner. Somewhere in the middle I toss in reteaching, reteaching, reteaching just for fun. Frankly, it’s exhausting. =)


So now’s a good great time for Jennifer’s “Tell Me Something Good” linky. I love reading all the positive things we have happening in our classrooms and a little sneak peek into our personal happenings too. Here’s mine:

Something Good from School: We’re working really hard to publish our Student Treasures books. We write “big kids” ABC books for ours (more on that later), and this is the first year that I’ve had so many great first drafts. Several of my students were able to skip revisions and head straight to edits. My students are rocking writing workshop this year!!

Something Good from Home: I’m still loving my office. I know, I know… it’s just a room. But it’s *MY* room. I’m so productive in here, the colors are gorgeous, and my last piece of art arrived. It’s a super cute custom piece from a local Etsy seller. I sent her a picture and she turned it into painting. Love her!

 
Next time you’re in a funk, think of all the positive things happening in your classroom and all the growth your kiddos are making. And tell Alexander to take a hike!

    That piece of art is beautiful. What a good idea:) I love your office, too. So, it's ok to love a "just a room" 😉

    I LOVE Etsy! I can't wait to see examples/hear more about your big kid ABC books. Sounds like a great idea!

  4. Jennifer says: January 16, 2013 at 4:57 am

    WOW- straight to final drafts! That's AWESOME! I'm dreaming of my future crafty room/office once we find a house. I need a space that can be all ME! I'm so happy you linked up! I do this linky every month so I hope you link up again next month!

DIY Floral Wallpaper // Charlotte’s first big gi DIY Floral Wallpaper // Charlotte’s first big girl room is one of my favorite places in the house. We let the kids choose their own decor for the new house and Charlotte’s room is a purple and pink dream... no surprise there! 

The DIY wallpaper was probably a “once and done” experience for us and took about six hours for this 9 by 16 wall. More pictures and sources are on our family blog, also linked in bio: https://completelychristi.com/2022/02/diy-floral-removable-wallpaper.html

Kid Closet // Because we were so happy with our ow Kid Closet // Because we were so happy with our own custom closet, we decided to do my son’s too. We primarily use his closet for off-season storage and toys, but it was always a MESS! Then the mess spilled out onto his nightstand, desk, dresser, building table, and under his bed. He needed a system! 

I used the online design tool from @containerstorecustomspaces to create this DIY Classic Elfa system. It took about three hours to install and set up. I love how flexible the system is, which means we can reconfigure the layout as he grows. I’m also really proud of his label choices... maybe he inherited some of my organizational skills after all!

As a momma, it’s easy to do all the things for your family. This is one thing I do for me! And since I work from home, it makes my space just a little happier every day. I was initially intimidated by the thought of arranging my own bouquets, but they provide tips and pictures to help. The best part? They arrive mostly in bud form and bloom in your home so you can enjoy each arrangement longer. ✨ Mine usually last 10-14 days. Link in bio to learn more.

We had plenty of room to turn our primary shower into a wet room with freestanding soaking tub. Shower glass is on the way, and I think we’ll tackle those mirrors too. The closet makeover is underway now, so check back for that next.

Either way, this deserved a permanent place. Merry Christmas from our family to yours. We are very thankful for another year together. Now bring on our second Kentucky Christmas!
