After a wonderful Christmas and much needed rest from school work, I'm linking up with Oh' Boy 4th Grade for my second Currently. Here it goes.............
Listening-My dog is happy to get her water dish to herself after having to share with two other dogs that belonged to family from out of town here for Christmas.
Loving-I treasure the time over the holidays spent with family.
Thinking-I am working on my second young adult novel. My writing is at its best when I'm relaxed, so I am taking advantage of winter break to write.
Wanting-I'm enjoying my new Kindle Fire I got from my hubby for Christmas. I want to read all the time now.
Needing-Echoing the thoughts of Farley, I really need to get and stay organized. I am going to work hard on this.
OLW-My one little word reflects the premise of my blog...Balance
This year I'm going to ....
-Balance my time between work and home.
-Balance my lessons to reach all learners.
-Balance things I like to do with things that I need to do.
I will keep an eye out to see if the scale is tipped too far in one direction causing undo stress.
Have a Happy New Year!
Writing a novel? Very exciting! That is something that I would never in a million years think of doing, but it does sound intriguing. Good luck!

DeleteI love your OLW we all need that balance sometimes! It's so easy to get caught up in work and not balance your personal life for me anyway!! Glad I found you through the currently!
