A Few of My Favorite Things...

You all know that I am in this forever quest of positive thinking and focusing on what is important. Just call me Positive Penny! ;) Not so much this weekend.

I reeeaaallllyyyyy want to be perfect. I really do. I'm not. Really. 

I have been very... dare I say.. emotional? I think that being sick on top of everything settling in with the amazing news in my life is all just coming at me. I am a classic worrier. I just want to be in control and know exactly what is going to happen and not tell anyone why I am upset or scared or anxious. People, you should just know. (I said this in my sarcastic tone and face)

I am not very happy with my reactions to things sometimes or my thought process. So, after a couple sleepless nights (thank you, Sinus Infection from Hell) I decided, it's broke. Fix it. If I don't like the way I feel, change it. So, that's what I am going to do.

Starting with me. 

I was reading one my favorite blogs and she was forced to make a list of everything that is good about her, her life, and a second list of what she is looking forward to... Oh no. Looking forward? See, that is a toughie for Ms. Meredith. Looking ahead got me in trouble. Newsflash, Craig (shout out to SNL) your life is not the same. You can and should look forward. So, I took said bloggers advice and The Queen of Lists did her thing.  Here are a few of my faaaavoorrrite things. 

1. I like the way I write the letter M. 

2. I like the way my students miss me when I am not there.

3. I like the way that I bust a random move. Usually in hallways. Near Kindergarten. Just sayin'.

4. I like my Anchor Charting skills. I make a meeeeaaannnn anchor chart.

5. I like how I make a bed.

6. I like my sarcasm. (Not self-depreciating)

7. I am looking forward to having a marriage more beautiful than my wedding.

8. Having someone to come home to and vice versa.

9. I look forward to lots of Photography sessions this summer.

10. I look forward to gaining an amazing new family.

11. Nieces. 

12. I am looking forward to finally closing a dark chapter in my life and not looking back. 

13. I like how I free-style. You should have heard my KTIP rap.

14. Spending the summer surrounded by amazing people.

15. I like the way I don't quit.

So, yeah. That's all I got right now. There was one more thing but I am keeping that for myself. Have a good week and thank you for reading my crazy.
