Binging on Books and Other Things {Spin Cycle Prompt}

Binge: 2. excessive indulgence in anything: a shopping binge

Lately, I’ve been binging on a Netflix show and I have a couple of books I can’t put down. It’s one of the reasons I haven’t been blogging very much. I also ate too many chocolates over the weekend. They weren’t from my husband, they were from my students!

This week on the Spin Cycle, pick one question or write about them all:

1. What have you been reading lately?
2. Is there anything good on your television?
3. Is there something that you can’t get enough of?

Tell me about your binges, and I’ll tell you what I’ve been reading/watching on Friday!

That Lovin’ Feeling {Spin Cycle}

After a preschool Valentine’s Day party as a teacher, a 4th grade party as a room mom, and a Brownies roller skating party, I’m ready to put my feet up. I spent way to much time cutting out hearts last night, you guys. The results were worth it, though. The fourth graders, even the boys, had fun making heart sun catchers. Granted, there is no sun in this picture, but you get the idea.

Valentine craft

However, while I put my feet up, I still owe you a blog post because I love you. And this week’s Spin Cycle post is all about what I love, after all.

The real question might be, how does love make you feel? I thought I was in love a couple of times before I met Ed. My sister and I spent long hours talking about love when I was miserably in love. More than once, like the song says, I lost that lovin’ feeling.

It doesn’t always take a man to get that lovin’ feeling. Today as I regained my confidence on my old inline skates, I remembered just how much I love skating. Zipping around the roller rink with my girls was so fun, but it was even more fun to see Emmy gaining her own confidence on roller blades.

Another thing I love is singing, especially those high notes. I’m a true soprano and oh! I love singing those descants! When my voice is warmed up and the high notes are on a vowel sound, they are effortless. I can feel that high A from the top of my head to the tips of my toes!

At this time of night, I love my cozy pajamas and a warm blanket. I’m reading a Longmire mystery right now. I can’t wait to publish this post and snuggle under the covers with my book. That’s definitely a different sort of love than rollerblading or singing.

Most of all, I love those two little girls cuddling under their own covers right now, and that man across the room from me reading his book. My true Valentines.

What do you love?
