Ah, Summer!

I am so incredibly thankful that summer is here.  As an educator I find myself completely wrapped up in work throughout the school year.  Sometimes it seems as if even my family has to take a back seat to it.  Luckily I decided to leave the job from Hell, and I am very excited to enter back into the high school classroom.  I am very optimistic that I am going to be able to get away from the toxic mind-game driven type of environment, and be able to focus on my students and family full time.  Let's hop it's going to be as good as it seems!  :)

So now that summer is here and I am officially employed for the next school year, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief and get back to what I love.  I have been enjoying so much time with my husband and kids, and now I'd like to also take some "me time" to get back to the uber-fun world of blogging.  So, let;s be real.  I'm not a blogger.  I mean, I try (a little) but I most love reading other blogs and entering contests.  So I'm getting back to that.  I'm excited to see what all of my favorite mommy bloggers have lined up for me!

I'm also working on a new lotion recipe that I am going to post soon.  I needed to make a lighter summer lotion, so I am not using the cocoa butter and beeswax.  So far it seems good, but I'd like to try making another batch before I actually post.  I think it will be worth the wait!
