Jot it down
I've always been a journaler. Where I journal about my days. This year, I started a reading journal with goals, trackers and where I write about each book I read throughout the year. I am loving it.
This year, I started a reading journal and I started using the Paperage dotted Journal. I absolutely love these journals. They are cost effective and the paper is fantastic.

I teach at a school that have quite a few Spanish speaking students. I have always wanted to learn to speak Spanish and to understand better what my students go through in learning English. These are the tools I use in my journey.
I started trying to learn spanish over 2 years ago in order to work better with my English learners better as well. I work a little bit every day. I love this app.

I've been trying my green thumb at some indoor planing. And these are some products that have been helpful.
I have started an herb garden and am loving having the herbs to cook with. However, I started noticing little fruit fly type things. Well they weren't fluit flies. They were these Gnats. These did the trick. About 2-3 weeks and they were gone.

I used this in my water with my herbs to get rid of my gnats as well and it did the trick.
