Currently

-
I've been posting my "Currently" series on time for a few months and I credit that to the fact that I hit the 15th of any month and think, "WHAT IN THE WORLD. How is it already THE MIDDLE OF THE MONTH??" and I run off to simultaniously hug my kids for hours and work on my living will (jokes) 
I try not to reread Currently Posts of days gone by so if one category repeats itself month after month, feel free to leave a grumpy comment.

3 Reasons

3 Reasons:  Why It's a Good Idea to Move (Because "The Reasons Why We Shouldn't Move" would be too long &  too sappy)  1. I'm less likely to run into people from Middle School . This reason specifically addresses my 8th grade English teacher. I've probably seen her every year since the 8th grade and considering that that was thirteen years  ago, that's a lot of times. I've always resisted the urge to walk up to her and say, "You never taught me how to diagram sentences! You're the reason I'm not a writer!" But if I happen to see her after I move, I'll take it as a sign and invite her out to lunch...where she might just teach me how to diagram sentences. 2. It's a ritzy, upscale place . We're moving to a place where people are well off. Yes, there will be drawbacks to this and I probably wouldn't pick it if I had a choice (but that's a blog post for another day).

She uses raw sugar and roasts her own peanuts) friend tell her child this when he was ignoring his sister. I like it much better than "answer your sister" as it makes them think of the other person instead of just following a command. Thoughts? 4. "Stay three feet away from me...
