WINNING!

This post is not dedicated to Charlie Sheen.

I am, however, joining Matt and Jeanette for their linky called

Win, Loss, and a Thing of Cost!

 

The WIN:

My teacher book club group is reading this book for the month of July:

I went to the author's website to learn more about her and the book, and on a whim, e-mailed her about skyping with us during our meeting next week.  Well, she responded within a day saying she was able to work into her schedule!

We are all so excited.  The author is Leigh Newman, and the story is engaging.

 

The LOSS:

Bug bites

(As in the loss of smooth, non-itchy skin)

I golfed twice in the last few days, and came home with multiple mosquito bites.

Can't. Stop. Scratching.

 

A THING OF COST:

I found this at Target yesterday after seeing one posted on Instagram:

I love the chevron, and the walls in my classroom are a mauve color, so I think I've found a color scheme for the coming school year.  It was on sale for $8.99 which is still pricey for a desk pad, but I couldn't resist.  They have other chevron desk accessories, too.
