Stitch Fix #1

I discovered something new last month and I am loving it! Stitch Fix! I got my first "fix" today and am scheduled for another "fix" the end of February. I'm already excited! Out of the five things my stylist, Alexandra, picked out, I decided to keep two. It wasn't that I didn't like the other three items, I just didn't think they looked the best on me.
A couple of the style suggestions with the clothes that were sent.
The things I sent back. Loved the material, quality, and comfort of them...just didn't like what I looked like in them! :)
The jean jacket and dress I kept. I figure I can wear the dress in the
winter to school or in the summer. Pretty functional!
Two things I'm loving about StitchFix: 
1. You can give your stylist your style Pinterest board link. So all those styles I'm drooling over on Pinterest, maybe a few will get in my closet! :)
2. I may get things in the mail that I originally wouldn't try if I saw in the store. Maybe I'll try some new styles that I will end up loving!

warm days

Pounding. That's what I've been hearing every evening for the past few days. The reason being below. We have had some beautiful January days, as in above 32 degrees, so it has been nice for my husband to tackle a few "outdoor" projects. Felix, my G6 sure appreciates it's home. I'm sure the indestructable, never-dying Maz appreciates it too. Oh, and this wife enjoys not having to scrape windows in the morning as well!

homework + winter decor

The flu has been raging through my classroom this week. Actually, the whole school has been hit. Tonight I ran into one of the moms of my student who has been sick this whole week and she mentioned how extremely happy her daughter had been that I sent home homework. She sees her older sister doing homework and she really, really wants to have homework as well. As soon as she mentioned that, my thoughts traveled to the Lisbon house when I would sit upstairs in the little bedroom, on the chest from grandma and grandpa, with an old purple/green trapper and pretend to be doing homework. The chest would be a "bus seat". I love when little remembrances of the past sneak up and you remember something you haven't thought of for a long, long time. Anyways, here is a glimpse of room K3, mid January. Winter projects are fun to do!

Although, sometimes it feels like it's the other way around...
