last night I was working on something and then
POW
I looked at the date and it said JULY 1
Oh My House Fly...
I hadn't even thought of what I was going to do for the CURRENTLY this month...
holy canoli
thanks goodness I had made these freebies... for you
Yeppers... as I was packing my classroom for the summer... I looked at my Pledge Poster and thought...
OOOH that is UGLY!!!
and then I thought I can do that...
so I did...
and they are up for grabs in my TpT Store FO FREE
yeppers FO FREE
(click on any PLEDGE pics to go grab yours)
I have them saved in PNG and PDF so you can take them to your fave print store and have them printed as big as you need
OK so thank goodness I had these cutesy digiscraps and so BRING IT ON....
JULY's CURRENTLY
You know what it is
RAINING RIGHT NOW...
YAY that is a SOUND I {PUFFY} heart LOVE...
we need all the rain we can get... my grass needs it
well what grass is still living...
bless my grass blades' nuclei
(they don't have hearts so I have to bless their nuclei RIGHT?)
we are only allowed to water on Thursdays and ONLY during special times...
so WE NEED RAIN!!!
OK that jeep I mentioned in another post...
you know the Mango Tango ONE?
I am still drooling over it...
I can't get it out of my HEAD
it just creeps back in there every chance it gets...
so hubs said we can go look at it again BUT next weekend
WHAAAAAAA
I think he is hoping it is GONE
and I am dreaming I get to drive off the lot in this...
my mom reads this so
PLEASE HOLD THIS MESSAGE is JUST FOR MOM
yes MOM I know my garage is full of JUNK great finds too much sctuff to fit a BEAUTY like this...
I KNOW
BUT I will clean my garage out and have the GARAGE SALE of the century if this BAD BOY
came home with me
and side note...
I am not even sure it would fit inside the garage LOL...
might be too lifted
BUT OH my achy breaky heart LOVES it
*****************************************************************************
I LOVE my new washer soooo much I am already wanting the matching dryer...
I got the LG super big capacity 4.7 BABY... TOP LOADING washer with WAVE action
I am loving it... got it at Home Depot ONLINE and got a GREAT DEAL!!!
it is AH-MAZING
and NO I am not being paid to advertise for LG or HOME DEPOT
BUT if an LG or HOME DEPOT person is reading this...
I WOULD LOVE YOU FOREVER AND EVER AMEN if you sent me the matching DRYER!!!
hubs said
no need to buy the matching dryer when our dryer works just fine
little does he know that I have issues with things matching
ISSUES... I tell you
so my only hopes is a LG or HOME DEPOT person sees this and sends me a NEW DRYER
(yeah right)
or I just have to wait
W-----A------I------T------I-------N--------G
?????????????????????????????? last question RULES????????????????????????
ok this gets me everytime
and if you stalk the CURRENTLY links like I do you will notice too
some folks don't read the RULES...
i think they just see I have the CURRENTLY up and going and they just link up
so as you know I don't call them out
I just sit back and snicker a little because they call themselves out... right (((giggling)))
so here are the RULES for the last question....
BOOKS
#1 should be your ALL TIME FAVORITEST BOOK to read aloud ... It is THE ONE
#2 is your goto professional book
I thought this would give us a good menagerie of books and we can start making a wishlist for next year.
mine are...
are these pics tiny enough... still working on this ... SORRY BUT YOU GET THE IDEA RIGHT?
Edward Tulane is my ABSOLUTE-lee posiTOOT-lee FAVORITEST
read aloud...
each adventure he travels on is mesmerizing and heart wrenching...
Edward steals your HEART and he can't even TALK!!!
if you read my blog
then you know I LOVE LOVE LOVE Jeff Anderson
I have seen him present...
WODERIFIC
and I have ALL of his books
I am currently reading 10 things every writer should know
BUT last year my GO TO book was
Everyday Editing...
so easy to read and TONS of ideas
this book is good for ALL grades
ALL GRADES
changed my teaching style completely
and made me a better teacher FO REALZ
OK now I will ZIP IT and hand it over to you...
here it is!!!

it lights up my phone and my heart...

ReplyDelete2) Edward Tulane is tied for my favorite read aloud....I'll use the other one for my currently post.
3) We should swap weather....it has been raining in Portland for days!
4) LOVE the rule of 3's....brilliant! I am going to apply it to all linky parties from here on out.

I am glad I am not the only one that loves matching appliances...
DeleteI am glad to say it rained a good bit this evening... we need more so we could trade for like a week...deal?
I am glad you like the Rule of Three and PLEASE do it... I was just getting upset that the little new baby blogs were not getting as much love as the big grown up blogs... so hopefully this helps :)
Well you are very thoughtful...the world needs more people like you! Thanks and I am ready for weather trading!
DeleteThank you so much for doing this! I have gotten lots of comments and about 5 new followers as a result of linking up. I am fairly new to all this so I appreciate the boost I am getting from this. I will definitely pay it forward as I get more followers.

I actually had time this round to go visit more than just a handful of sites. Three cheers for summer vacay! Currently offers the coolest little "windows" into everyone's biz-nas and I am lovin' it. That kinda sounds creepy, but I am letting it all hang out tonight. Thanks Farley :)

Love, love, love your blog and your personality! I'm your newest follower. I am also a newbie blogger just having started Yesterday :) I to love Jeeps. The Wrangler as been my fav car since I was a teen. I now have a Jeep Commander, which I also love, but they don't make any more. I have my eye on a Silver Rubicon though... Stop by my newbie blog when you get a chance. www.classroomcraft.com
ReplyDeleteFarley, I love, love, love your blog!
ReplyDeleteYour Pledge of Allegiance posters look GREAT! And I love what you said about the rule of three for the "Currently". I'm a new blogger, so I haven't done one yet, but I look forward to the next one.
I would love to have you follow me!

Hi Farley,
ReplyDeleteI have just completed my July Currently - I'm a first timer! Wanted to thank your for organizing it! I really was fun to do! And thanks for helping me to find so many other amazing blogs!
Teresa
Hi there! I love your Currently's and I don't even have a blog. I bug my sister (blogger) when she doesn't see your post. She LOVES to do her Currently. Rule of 3 makes it even better. I was reading Reagan Tunstall's post and I just love that her son got into it and did his own.... which got me thinking, how fun to give the kids a way to share their feelings, thoughts, ideas and "post" around the room... so since this is your idea, I elect you to make it :) How about a yearlong set (9) with monthly themed borders. Leave the bottom open for teacher or student ideas and a "Kid" title (not YOLO!)Just a brainstorm you can take it from here, post it to tpt and I will be your first (or 258th, if it goes as fast as this currently) buyer :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Fourth.. oh dear, it's the fifth already
Enjoy

Yep, daughter of mine, I saw the drool on the posting about the Mango Tango Jeep. Orange aka Mango Tango is your fav color and I know you {Puffy} heart it....but I don't think it will fit in your garage.....just sayin'. Currently I am reading and writing on your blog. LOL
ReplyDeleteThank you for this opportunity. I just added our blog to the list. i have the post all ready to go, but am waiting until midnight to post as we already have one in for today. Didn't want to do two in one day, lol
ReplyDeleteBe looking for it tomorrow! :)
Ok...so I know we are kindred spirits just cause you act and sound just like me. When you posted the four door jeep...in orange...HELLO! My hubs is tired of hearing me talk about getting one of these! :-) Couldn't resist a comment! I say if I get a convertible-like vehicle that's sure to bring lots of rain, right?!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the adorable Pledge of Allegience posters! I puffy heart them!
