July Currently

I'm linking up with Farley at Oh' Boy 4th Grade for the July Currently.

My 11 year old son is very ADHD & at this hour of the day his medication is out of his system. My husband and I have always say that God has a sense of humor. Giving two elementary school teachers an ADHD child-hilarious. :) Seriously...I wouldn't trade him for the world. though. He fixed his own "breakfast" yesterday. I woke up to find a package of cookies on the counter with the centers all licked clean & the cookie outsides back in the package. So thoughtful.

I've been working this past week on creating new deskplates & lunch choices for my classroom. I love the new designs. I also have started my first blog & am lucky enough to have Lindsey at Thriving in Third working on a new blog design for me.

 

This summer has just flown by! I've spent so much of it in doctors' offices though. Last fall I was diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer & had my thyroid removed. The past 8 months have not been fun for me. I've gained 30 pounds & have been so exhausted that most days just being awake is a chore. I never knew how many functions the thyroid controlled. I tore a tendon in my foot & have been in physical therapy 3 times a week. With wearing a boot on my foot for weeks my tmj has been acting up & so I've had a sore jaw, head, and neck. I'm going to a tmj specialist tomorrow. I'll be happy when I feel like me again.

We are leaving this weekend for Saint Joseph in Michigan. I love that little town & the beautiful beaches there. I have nothing packed & my husband ate all of the snacks I bought to take with us.

We will spend the 4th of July at our local park. Our town always has a 4th of July tourney for the softball and baseball leagues. We'll spend all day there & watch the fireworks when it gets dark.
