Five for Friday Linky Party! :)

So I am joining the Five for Friday linky party where other teachers post five random things from today or this past week. This Wednesday marked one week since our students started their summer break. This week has gone by so fast I hope I can have enough time to relax and enjoy the break before we go back! 

#1 - Yesterday I got my hair trimmed and put my original base hair color in with some red and caramel coloring. It's new and different. But I LOVE how healthy it looks. The hair stylist I had was AMAZING! I didn't know how long I was going to be there so I had packed some snacks just in case and thank goodness I did. I was there a lot longer than expected because I originally wasn't going to color my hair at all and I ate ALL my snacks and even one of theirs complimentary snacks. ;)

#2 - This week I tried some new recipes and one of them was seasoned salmon topped with crushed up Wheat Thins with asparagus (1- Red,1 - Green, 1/2 - Yellow for Wheat Thins). It was absolutely delicious! I was never a fan of asparagus. I always thought it looked yucky when it came out of a can and assumed that the texture would totally gross me out. Then I met a friend of mine and every time we went out to eat he always got asparagus. I would joke with him about his obsession with it. I mean really...no lie...he ordered it EVERY TIME. Well I decided to try it and I can see why he loves it. I don't think I could eat it as much as him. But, I have had it 3 times this week already. 

#3 - I am a HUGE fan of quotes. My best friend Nicole's fiance always says that I must be some deep poet or something because I am constantly pinning and reading quotes. However, quotes motivate me with life, work, working out, etc. So I bought this journal from Target and it has a section for me to write 3 things I am thankful for, what workout I did, my mood, and inspirational quotes for each day. I also add the foods I ate that day so I have it written down for the future in case I need some ideas on foods to add into my meal for the week. 

#4  - I met up with some old teacher and high school friends last night and we had a blast as usual. It's never a boring moment with this crowd. 

#5 - Of course I saved the BEST for last! :) I got to see Easton this week. This is my coteachers baby and he is now 2 weeks old. He is so good and CUTE !! And of course I got to spend time with Danielle (coteacher) who I terribly missed the last 2 weeks of school. We had an awesome substitute in the class with me but I felt like I had lost my right arm without her there because of course we always have something to talk about even outside of work. Well I know I do..I can admit to my love for talking. ;) 

Now it's time for me to start getting ready for work tonight. Hope everyone has a FANTASTIC Friday!  :)
