My New Favorite Pen plus a Giveaway!

Hey yall! Happy hump day!
 
I am in love, yall. Yes, in love....with a pen!
 
Have you guys ever heard of Shoplet.com? It is an awesome website that has LOADS of office supplies! What teacher doesn't love office supplies, right?
 
Well, they were nice enough to send me some pens to review and I am so glad they did!
 
Let me introduce my new love to you...
 
Zebra Z-Mulsion EX Pen
 
This baby is so smooth and has such a pretty color! The one I tried out is a gorgeous lime green, and I have been using it for everything! I hope my grad professor doesn't mind getting work in lime green ink...
 
I also love that this pen has a clicker! I do have to keep myself in check, though, or else my hubs gently reminds me to knock it off please stop clicking.
 
I also checked out this cool little mechanical pencil.
 
Zebra M-301 Mechanical Pencil

I liked this pencil because it looks like a pen! It is also very light and the lead doesn't break every other second, which is one reason why I usually stay away from mechanical pencils.
 
Good news, yall! Shoplet.com is having a huge giveaway! They are giving away 20,000 Zebra pens AND over $300 in Shoplet giftcards! Click on the picture below to go enter the giveaway.
 

 

 
Also, thanks to the few of you that entered my Chevron giveaway. Winners are below!

Chevron, Chevron, Chevron

Hey yall! Happy Monday!
 
I wanted to link up with Manic Monday today, but I don't have myself together enough. I've been trying to put the last finishing touches on my new set! So maybe tomorrow I'll post some freebies for you :)
 
In the meantime, take a look at my new Chevron Themed Classroom Set!
 
 
Chevron is so in right now, and I am just loving all these pretty colors together!
 
This 140 page set includes:
 
*Transportation/Attendance Board
 
 
*Desk Tags
 
 
 
*Calendar Buddies
 




 
 
*Calendar Cards/Special Events Cards
 
*Alphabet Cards {both print and cursive}
 

 
 
*Table Numbers
*Classroom Jobs
 

 
 
The best part is? This file is EDITABLE! That means you can add your own text to the blank templates I have provided! That is perfect for when you need a job that I haven't included in the set, or a transportation option that I didn't think of. You will need to download the Annoying Kettle font to so do, so click here to go get it!

Want to purchase this set? Click here to get it at TPT!
 
And because I just love this set so much, I want some of you to enjoy it, too!
 
So let's have a quick little giveaway! This will only last until midnight on Wednesday, August 29th!

Good luck!!!

Teacher Week-Freebie Friday!

Hey yall!
 
I am so sad that Teacher Week is over, but today is my favorite day so far!
 
Why is that?
 
Well, because it's Freebie Friday!
 

And who doesn't love freebies, right?
 
So let's just get right on down to the nitty gritty.
 
My first freebie today is from a new packet that I have been working on. They are chevron striped calendar cards! Click on any picture to download them.
 




The rest of this pack should be up by the end of the day....hopefully :)
 
My second freebie also coordinates with another pack of mine. It's my Owls on Dots Number Posters! Click on any picture below to download.
 



 
I have been working so hard lately adding products to my shop. I know that everyone is scrambling to get your rooms ready (if school hasn't started yet!), so I have been trying to get all my classroom theme items up and ready!
 
Here are just a couple of things I have added in the last few days. All of these packs coordinate with my Owl Themed Classroom Set.
 
Owl Themed Number Posters
 
 

 
Owl Themed Schedule Cards
 

Owl Themed Weather Set
 



 
 Whew, I think that's it.
 
See? Told you I've been busy!
 
Now off to get all my freebies!

Teacher Week-Therapeutic Thursday

Hey yall!
 
Are you loving Teacher Week as much as I am? I had such a blast checking out everyone's classrooms yesterday. Unfortunately, this girl still has not found a job, so no classroom photos for me....bummer!
 
Anyways, onto Therapeutic Thursday!
 

Today is all about how to relax and destress after a long day at school or work. Well, for me, its a no brainer!
 
1. Pedicure-there is nothing better than having your feet pampered while you sit in a massage chair and catch up on the latest gossip. Pretty toes make for happy girls :)
 


 
2. Vino-do I need to say more??? It especially helps when you share some with your girlfriends...on Winesday, maybe?

 
 
3. Junk tv-I love getting to zone out in front of the tv for hours at a time. Lately, I have had waaaay too much of this. This girl needs a job-pronto! My faves are funny shows, but I also love a good drama!
 

 

 



 

 

4. My pups-I look forward to seeing these 2 sweet faces every day. I guess I'll add my hubby in there, too :)
 

 

 


 
5. Listening to music-my go to pick-me-up music is Grace Potter. Seriously, go get this cd....she is amazing.
 

 
By then, I am completely relaxed.....ahhh.
 
So....how do you destress?
