8 years ago on October 10, 2008, I participated with 10 on 10 for the very first time.
It was super small & only a handful of people even knew about it.
My blog was only 2 months old and I thought it was such a fun idea to
document my day every hour for 10 hours. My little Claire Bear was only 1
month old.
Since that very first time I did 10 on 10, I was hooked.
For the past EIGHT years, every month, I have documented the 10th day of the month.
I haven't missed a month yet!!!
I have been a couple days late posting my 10 on 10 but I have still documented the 10th of each month. Sometimes life just gets busy & I don't have time to post on the actual 10th.
I have been a couple days late posting my 10 on 10 but I have still documented the 10th of each month. Sometimes life just gets busy & I don't have time to post on the actual 10th.
I love looking back on the 10th of each month and seeing the beauty in the ordinary days.
Here is a sneak peek at our day!
The first photo of my 10 on 10 is usually coffee because that is always how I start my day.
Well, we were out of coffee filters on Monday morning, so that meant no coffee.
I got home from 4 days in Vegas Sunday afternoon, so needless to say on this Monday morning, I was VERY, VERY tired. No coffee was rough. We have coffee in our staff room, but of course today...we were out. AHH!!!!! I wanted to cry.
So, I chose to focus on something pretty....like the beautiful roses that are blooming on our campus right now. You gotta love Fall in California!
Today, in some of my classes, we made flip books for Order of Operations.
During my break I went straight to Starbucks. I have a *slight* coffee addiction. And after 4 days in Vegas only getting 4-5 hours of sleep each night, coffee was more than necessary!
After I got back to school, I had to stay a little bit longer to finish up grading...1st quarter grades were due today!
Time to go get Luke....wearing my most comfortable shoes EVER. They feel like slippers. And, again....after 4 days of walking a ton in Vegas (and wearing heels most of the time) these flats felt like heaven today!
One of my favorite sayings is "Happy Fall Y'all" (it's the only time I say y'all) How perfect is this banner?Time to get dinner prepped. My Crock Pot is on it's last leg, so it was time bust out the Insta Pot & see if it lives up to the hype.....
After I prepped dinner, Kate & I waited on the porch for her soccer carpool to pick her up. We were admiring the pumpkin she decorated this weekend at one of her friend Taylor's birthday party.
As I was helping Claire with homework, I was organizing some mini facials that I picked up in Vegas while I was at our Rodan + Fields convention. I have a bunch of mini facials that I want to giveaway.
Leave a comment letting me know you want one or send me an email if you want one!

First come, first serve :)
Also...stay tuned for this recipe...I will be posting it soon for my annual Crocktober Post!
Right now it is almost midnight & the game is in the 13th inning and the Giants just won!!!
Giants torture!!!!!
As you can see in the background, I have been using my nervous energy to make the kids lunches & get their backpacks all ready for the morning.
Hope you had a great Monday & thanks for following along on my 10 on 10 posts every single month for the past 8 years!!
I'd love a mini facial! And I always look forward to your 10 on 10! brining@gmail.com
