<br />
First of all... I am no longer working night shift at the hospital. I am now on "normal people" hours and working in a Neurosurgery clinic. More money, better hours, and much more time to spend time with my sweet husband and cute fur baby Jordie, to do school work, and most importantly blog!<br />
<br />
Secondly... My husband and I recently moved and we are absolutely loving our new home! We are closer to both his family and mine. We have much more space here and.... it is sooooo QUIET! Loving it!<br />
<br />
So that's enough about me. How is everyone else? I am so excited to be jumping back in and continuing to learn the trick of the trade from the BEST! What better way to do it then attend my very first blog meet up. I am so excited to be meeting some of my favorite bloggers!<br />

I hope that you will choose to follow my new blog and encourage me with my weight loss just as much as you all have with my education/career transition. I will still be blogging here but I just thought that I should keep the two separate.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>listening</b>: I called to check on my dad this morning because he has been sick. He lives in California (and Im in Alabama) so telephone and Skype are our only options of communication between visits. Poor daddy... hoping he feels better soon. :(</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>loving: </b>So the new doctor's office that I've recently started working for is A-mazing! Half of the staff worked the Wed, Thurs, & Fri after Christmas... and half will work today, tomorrow, and Friday. In turn, meaning you get a week and some days off with your family! Yippeee! Needless to say this is my week! Yay for 9 days off!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>thinking: </b> My mom, grandmother, aunt, and cousins are coming into town tomorrow and we're all going on a girls shopping trip. I, however, have been a lazy bum these past few days and need to do some serious cleaning before they arrive. Yay for company and a day of shopping... Boo for cleaning :(</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>wanting: </b>Since it is a warm 39 degrees at my house right now... I'd rather be on a beach, toasting in the sun, with a drink in my hand.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>needing: </b>I have made up my mind that I don't like the reflection that I see in the mirror anymore and Im going to finally do something about it. I am a planner... so I have to come up with a workout/ diet plan so that I can be organized enough to stick to it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>OLW: </b> My OLW is <u style="font-weight: bold;">CHANGE</u> simply because there is about to be a lot of changes in this girl in the months to come! I'll keep you updated! :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is my first time blogging in a while. I hope to start blogging on a more consistent basis now though. Lots of updates for all of my "blogosphere" friends... we recently moved into a new house.... and I got a new job. A <u>day shift</u>, no <b>weekends</b> or <b>holidays</b>, making <b><u><i>more money</i></u></b> job! WHOOP WHOOP! Also, I am closer to the college that I am attending. GO me! Only downside with this fantastic job is that I am not able to substitute teach as often, but I am able to take more classes so that gets me closer to my goal of having my own classroom one day... bittersweet.. nevertheless.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, I have embarked on a new journey or two this year. First one is a weight loss journey. I say this every year but I am VERY serious about it this year. I have got to make a life change, and do it for myself and for no one else. Also, to get closer to God this year. I need to read and study more on my own, and attend church on a more regular basis. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Happy 2013 everyone!! May this be YOUR year to become a better you!</div>

I first of all want to thank everyone for entering my very first ever linky fashion party. It was such a blast (and insightful) to see the different wardrobe styles of all of my fellow teaching friends. To update everyone on where I've been (since it hasn't been in blogland)... I have been so busy working full time at the hospital, going to school full time, and subbing part time. I am now subbing for 4 school systems and I am really excited about the last one that I just picked up... it's the school system that I went to school at and graduated from. It's the school that most of my younger cousins attend, and its the school that some of my cousin's kids attend! I absolutely love being at this school because most of the faculty that are there taught me also. I LOVE being on this side of things and being able to catch up with all of them.<br />
<br />
I have an interview tomorrow for a 5th school system in my area. I really don't know how I am gonna find the time for every school but I am having so much fun being able to keep my options open and sub in the areas that I prefer. So what has everyone else been up to?? I need updates blogging friends! You have definitely been missed!Jesshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04504725715885259318noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5298712501097692441.post-160014104047399362012-08-06T15:08:00.000-05:002012-08-06T15:12:18.352-05:00Teacher Bag and Teacher's Fashion Linky<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One thing that I've been dying to get is a big tote bag that I can use for different things. Something that would be big enough for a carry-on for a weekend flight, a random day trip to Atlanta that my hubby and I take often, and most importantly... to take to my sub jobs with me.</div>
<br />
Enter Vera Bradley (she ALWAYS comes through)... I ordered this baby...<br />

Teacher's Fashion Linky PartyHey guys!! Since I've recently been offered <span style="font-size: x-large;">3.. </span>(yippe!!!) substitute teaching positions... I've been thinking... now what do I need to wear? Of course I know I have tons of business casual clothes. And I think I have enough teacher friends and family to know what is appropriate or not for a teacher. But hey, I've also been in the medical field for the past five years wearing scrubs daily. Do you think that I would give up an opportunity to go shopping?? Let me give you a hint... uh NO!!! Haha.<br />
<br />
I've been searching online for some new trouser pants and dressy shirts that are season-less (is that a word?) and of course some cute dresses and skirts. And then I thought... <span style="background-color: yellow;">(lightbulb)</span><span style="background-color: white;"> W</span>hy not just go to the experts?? And what better way to do it than a Linky Party? <br />
<br />
I've been brainstorming on this idea for awhile now and since I'm fairly new to the blogging world... I was a little intimidated <strike>ok a LOT intimidated</strike>. I have seriously gone back and forth, back and forth about it and this morning I thought... "What is the worst that could happen?" Whatever... I can do this! So without further ado... here it is....<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://mrsjwalk.blogspot.com/2012/08/whats-your-style-teachers-fashion-linky.html"><img border="0" height="260" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bHpfmy47cRQ/UBqC8whnprI/AAAAAAAAASI/jXAXhxIfeUA/s320/Teacher%2527s+Fashion+Linky.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here are the guidelines...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. Tell me your favorite store(s) that you like to get your "teacher's fashion".</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. What are some of your favorite accessories?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. What type of shoes do you teach in? (i.e. heels, flats, wedges, etc.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. Do you have a "go-to" item in your closet? (i.e. sweater you wear weekly, shoes you wear daily, etc.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
5. Have you ever had a fashion "uh-oh" at school? (i.e. heel broke, button popped off of blouse)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Please feel free to post any cute items, sales, outfits that you have grabbed for this upcoming school year!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. My favorite stores are:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.maurices.com/" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="87" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bHPYdSOABy0/UBqKn3qrsHI/AAAAAAAAASg/nr7EHoPaJ4o/s200/maurices.gif" width="200" /></a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Since I technically haven't taught yet... I guess I can't really say for sure. I, however, have always been a lover of HEELS!! Like tall heels...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4bdiCT1sp1o/UBqPCqj-HVI/AAAAAAAAATg/wrXAGqI8v9E/s1600/heels.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4bdiCT1sp1o/UBqPCqj-HVI/AAAAAAAAATg/wrXAGqI8v9E/s200/heels.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Aren't these gorgeous?? But I know that in reality I will be trading these in for something like this...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

and I am okay with that (I'm sure my feet with thank me later)!! haha</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. My go-to item in my closet is my "Boyfriend" blazer that I purchased from Charlotte Russe.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-k61J1tkqthw/UBqQZeIUPyI/AAAAAAAAAUA/qHBBGe-wE6g/s1600/blazer.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="259" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-k61J1tkqthw/UBqQZeIUPyI/AAAAAAAAAUA/qHBBGe-wE6g/s320/blazer.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Looks like these... but its just plain black</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
5. I haven't had any fashion uh-oh's as a teacher yet... but I remember my senior year of high school we had a bomb threat at our school and they made us evacuate to the football field for hours... in the HOT sun. Remember this is ALABAMA guys... it was <span style="color: red; font-size: large;">HOT</span>!! We were out there for at least 3 hours. I had on my favorite pink flip flops... yeah, well the ol' faithful flip flops let me down that day... because one of them broke!! The strap popped out of the side so I had to stand out there <strike>or sit </strike> with a broken flip flop... not to mention walk all the way back to the school once we were able to go back in. Tragedy as a teenager in high school. </div>

<span style="background-color: white;">Cheerleading has always been a big part of my life. It all started when I was 4, one of my mom's friend asked if I would be the mascot- youngest cheerleader </span><strike style="background-color: white;">not the animal in a costume</strike><span style="background-color: white;"> of the cheer squad that she coached. I cheered from then until my senior year of high school. Then continued as a coach for an Allstar competition squad until last year when I started working nightshift at the hospital. I currently work for a company that contracts tryout judges and clinic coaches so I still have a little taste of heaven every now and then. I hope to pick up coaching again when I start teaching *crosses fingers*.</span></div>

I have training for another school system next week, so that makes a total of THREE school systems that I am officially on the sub list for.

I feel like it's been forever since I posted last. I have a few updates that I am so happy to share!! First of all... I finally completed the process for becoming a Certified Substitute Teacher.. woo hoo!! I am soooo excited. Also... I have applied to be on the sub list at 5 different school systems! I've already had one interview and should be hearing something soon on their decision. I am one step closer to at least being in the classroom gaining some sort of experience while I'm still obtaining my degree.<br />
<br />
In other news... distance education may NOT be my thing. It's so much harder to stay focused than I thought it would be. I have taken other online classes before and completed them just fine, but this new college that I have chosen to attend is much different. They send out contracts for each class which is pretty much composed of a start date and an end date (6 months after the start date), syllabus, and signatures from both <strike>the student </strike>me and the professors. Then... that's it! Your in... now GO! Easy.. right? Um... no. There are no due dates on anything, no test dates, just Jess' own leisure. It has its perks because if I don't have time to do homework or complete a test one day... it really doesn't matter. But at the same time... I need deadlines people!!<br />
<br />
Even Jordie is bored with this whole homework/ school thing! Look...<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OwkrGI7hxt4/T8dTD9XDD8I/AAAAAAAAAJc/MUCOwmB8oas/s1600/Confession.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OwkrGI7hxt4/T8dTD9XDD8I/AAAAAAAAAJc/MUCOwmB8oas/s1600/Confession.png" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are a few of my current obsessions:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. ALABAMA FOOTBALL!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-z-gRV4j9FaQ/T8dTeAXiCVI/AAAAAAAAAJk/AYkd-F_o6WM/s1600/bama.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-z-gRV4j9FaQ/T8dTeAXiCVI/AAAAAAAAAJk/AYkd-F_o6WM/s1600/bama.jpeg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Roll Tide Roll!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My husband and stepdad say that they have never met two women who were more obsessed with football than my mom and I. You know the stereotype of the man sitting in front of the TV on Saturdays and Sundays drinking beer and eating wings... screaming to the top of their lungs? Well that's my mom and I!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Reality Shows</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Right now I have a plethora of reality shows that I DVR and watch religiously!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Every since I can remember my family has taken at least one beach trip a year. I love everything about the beach... the sun, the people, the smell, and most definitely the beautiful water! Ahhh... I could just live there year round!</div>

3) Are you right or left handed?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-Right handed</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
4) Are you a spontaneous person, or do you like having things more planned out?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-I think I am a combination of the two. I like to have a plan most of the time but I can be spontaneous at times. I think it comes with my outgoing personality!<br />

Hope you are all having a great week thus far! I had a question that I have been searching for the answer to near and far... I have searched and searched the internet high and low and no one seems to be giving out the secrets. I decided to come to my "bloggie" friends for answers.<br />
<br />
So, as most of you know... I am not a teacher yet, still living the life of a healthcare professional. However, during my time spent of only working three 12 hour shifts a week, I would like to start creating cute things for my (future) classroom. Only problem... I have NO CLUE as to where to even begin. This is where you come in!<br />
<br />
What software do you use to create your TPT materials such as classroom decor, theme sets, units, etc. I don't by any means want to steal your ideas, just want to be able to create my own!<br />
<br />
Thanks so much!!!<br />
<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;">Hello Blog world!! So it has been a minute since I have posted, but I just had to share some great news!! I have had to jump through some hoops of fire with sharks circling to get my financial aid cleared through the Dept of Education. Its a very long story but to make it short... there was a mistake on my file preventing me from getting any student loans because it showed that I was in default, well (after 3 months of talking to numerous ppl in numerous states) now it is finally handled and they have sent a letter to Judson clearing me <strike>of all charges</strike> of THEIR mistake. I'm on my way to enrolling in classes soon and can't wait!!! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;">In other news... I went Monday to be fingerprinted for Substitute teaching. Whenever I am cleared for my background check, i can apply for my sub license through the state and hopefully start the process of getting on some local school's sub list. Can i get an amen???</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;">Oh! I can't leave without bragging on my insanely awesome husband! <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Congrats to him for receiving an offer to go to Massachusetts next month to compete in a skills competition for work. They only chose one person from each level and he was chosen in his! He was told that they only choose "the best of the best" to represent the company at these competitions and that he should be "honored" to have gotten an offer!!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: inherit;">Hope everyone is having a wonderful HUMP day!! </span><br />
