Hello-Goodbye

Tonight I'm linking up with sweet Allison at a Nestful of Love for her Hello/Goodbye Link up for the month of February. 

January was a weird month: we had a bunch of snow days and some 2 hour delays. I feel like my teaching schedule is all wack-a-doo. I know my students feel it too. 

I started some new headache medication that has made me feel super exhausted and just kind of all out blah most of the month. It left me out-of-sorts; I kind of still feel that way. And it left me having to find a new neurologist to continue my migraine journey with because the doctor I had and loved left the practice she was with for a new and exciting adventure in her career.  

It was overall just a crazy month, and I am ready to get back into a sense of normalcy. I did, however, feel a little productive this month with some things I've gotten accomplished--some little things, mind you, but I am proud of myself for doing some small things that made me feel great! It's always the little things. 

So here are some things that I'll be saying Hello and Goodbye to this month...
