Listening: To the fan in the bedroom. It's been warm here. We've been sleeping downstairs actually. But, I hate that mattress. So I'm attempting to cool the bedroom down. I'm doubtful that it's working.
Loving: I've been babysitting all week and having to get up at 5 am. I usually wake up around then anyhow, but I don't actually get out of bed then. It was nice to just lay there a while today and check out some things on my phone.
Thinking: My parents are coming Tuesday. I'd like to have my house spotless. Currently, it is not. It is very very far from spotless. I would just rather blog than clean. It will happen though. Probably 10 minutes before I get them from the airport. Ha!
Wanting: I always want candy. Always. It's bad news.
Needing: A pedicure. Mom and I are going on Wednesday though.... so just a few more days with ugly toes! What colour should I do? I'm thinking something neon.
1st Day Back: This is full of question marks because I don't know! In Canada, we go back the day after labour day, which is September 2 this year. However, in BC we are still on strike and things aren't looking awesome for heading back on that day. It was announced at noon today that the two sides are meeting, but I am not getting my hopes up just yet.
Thanks Farley for doing this linkup month after month! One of my favourites!
thanks so much for linking up... wow an unknown start date...
ReplyDeleteand a strike
interesting
I knew that was going on but wasn't sure the exacts of it...
good luck and I hope you all get exactly what you want and deserve!!!
It is quite interesting. The government is playing dirty too. Can't say I've seen anything like it before. Thanks for the support!
DeleteI was just thinking that I should be cleaning. We settled our contract earlier this summer, but I was a little concerned. I hope everything works out in B.C.

Thanks Mary! The cleaning will happen when it happens. haha.
DeleteAh - a fellow BC girl! Yes, it will be interesting to go back (IF we go back) and my room is still sitting there full of books and desks. Oh please hope the custodian didn't mess things up too badly over the summer!
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed this gets resolved soon!

DeleteWow! I'm so sorry you are on strike. I hope everything gets resolved soon! I just got a pedicure and go hot neon coral! I love that color, makes anyone look tan! :D
ReplyDeleteI was thinking that exact colour Alexis!!

It's driving me crazy too Brandi! I'm moving into a new classroom, and all my stuff is in bins. Needing to unpack badly! My worst fear is that we go in after school should have started and my room is a disaster!
DeleteMy heart aches for all of you who are on strike...everything so out of your control Best of luck as you move forward!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteThe strike business is so stressful. We, in Ontario, are going to be in your boat this year. The contract imposed by the government was just for two years. The time is up now. Good luck with everything!
