Thats Life

It's Saturday. I'm just six days from sending another group of little people off in to the world or at least until they fly back into my classroom in September. Some of them are moving away, some are moving up, but the rest of my little chickies will be back. I will really be glad for the summer break. I recently had my teenagers "job shadow" me and they both commented that the energy level to keep up with 17 three and four year olds is insane. HAHA Yea, because if your not in control, the kids will be! I'd like to refer you to the class next door which I've gently dubbed the "LTFs". (Lord of The Flies) who is run by their fearless (fearful?) leader, BBOI (sorry can't share that one at this time). The LTFs have crazy music sung by the most annoying children's musicians ever allowed to even be produced, at a volume heard through the cinder blocks and up past the main office. My kids get the occasional Rafi....but we really strive for something a bit more calming. Anyway I'm way off course now......Ok so high energy, yours must be greater than theirs....blah blah blah....this is why at least every other day I end up taking the afternoon NAP, which is the best thing EVER!! Then there is the germ factor that I need a break from. I've seen it all this year from Swine to Strep. I only seem actually get sick right about the time we have a break. Like, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. My director recently complimented me on my great work ethic like perhaps she thinks I've been able to control getting sick for the better of the school. Hmmm?? Well, if it means a raise I will continue to allow her to believe it. This is the same woman who administered my last flu shot to me!

Ok to the point, the point, the point!!! Patience my dear reader! For the next three months all I have in front of me is books, travel, beaches, biking, outdoor activities and so therefore......i should also be able to PAINT more because I will no longer be sucked dry of creativity, emotional energy, and physical exhaustion. YEA!!! Oh but did I mention for the next three months I have no income..... paintings are for sale!!
