Signs of Summer...
A few signs that summer is almost here...
1. I was finally able to hang a "summer" Snoopy flag outside my classroom!
3. One hot kitty!
Only 10 more school days! Woo hoo!

2. Last round of prayer cards for teachers! I love the flip flop scrapbook paper I used for these envelopes:
Only 10 more school days! Woo hoo!

May Currently
A new Currently!
Listening - it's pretty quiet inside and out right now, but I can hear the birds tweeting outside. Finally, Spring!
Loving - there are only 20 school days left! Hip Hip, Hooray!
Thinking - my students carry an egg "baby" for two days during the Child Care unit. I don't trust middle schoolers with raw eggs, so the eggs have to be hollowed. I just finished blowing out my last batch of eggs for the year! (And, since I'm designing a rotating two-year curriculum, I won't have any at all next year!)
Wanting - I've been working on cleaning out the clutter from my new classrooms all year long - I very, very, very much want to have this accomplished by the end of this school year!!!
Needing - this is the time of year teachers are holding onto their wits by their fingertips! Just keep swimming, just keep swimming...
Bucket List - Gotta replace the curtains that came with the house! Also, tons of sewing projects to work on. And of course, that pesky second year curriculum isn't going to write itself. Beyond that, plenty of fun things planned for this summer! Trips to visit family, a DCI contest, a Yo-Yo Ma concert (yes, another), and several other events I'm looking forward to.
20 more school days!

Great Minds Think Alike!
My fabulous SIL (who lives many hours away) posted the following photo of her kitties "helping" her with a sewing project:
If you look closely at the fabric underneath the cat on the left, it is the same fabric that I used for my second tool belt! Crazier still, the black and white fabric on the far left was what I almost used for the contrast - I just thought it might be too overwhelming for its intended purpose. Great minds think alike! And as she said, we obviously both have great taste!
