We don't have to get up at 6am and start washingdressingeatingbrushinglookingpackingleaving anymore! Emma got on the bus at 6:55, Jack, Julianna, and Melanie got on the bus at 8am, and Andrew and I had to be at preschool by 8:15, ready to teach.
My kids graduated last night, I'll post pics later. I was a little teary, but glad it was over. I get to be the art cart lady at the school next year, so I'm not totally gone.
Whew! It has been a raucous year. I am so glad to have two months of low energy living. We are not doing any team sports or individual lessons of any sort.
Today we are going to visit Julie, Chris' sister, and her hubby Kirk in Knoxville. They just moved into a new house and we're warming it today.
Pics later, have a happy day!

Out of Jail!
I'm free! The Google robots decided that I am not SPAM (I'm at least bologna) and they unlocked my blog. Thanks bots! So, the past three days....
I had an incredible weekend at Mindy's house up on the Ridge, making art, drinking her rose', talking, eating, drinking her rose', and just being me. It was so nice not to be responsible for anyone but myself for a bit.
I made two new friends, too, and that is always joyous! Thanks ladies for your time and creative inspiration. I love embossing!
I'm off to finish up teaching for the year. My 4 and 5 year olds are out of control this week, they know the end is near. I will breathe much easier when I see them walk at graduation! I am really proud of them and it is infinitely fulfilling to be a part of a child's life and get to watch them grow and learn for 9 months.
But boy am I going to love just having 2 jobs! :)
I'm out for now.

Jammin on the One
Happy birthday to me!
I am on the Ridge, blogging for the first time. In the heat of the end of the school year, tornado damage, starting a business, and taking care of sick people, I have gone away for the weekend.
*breathe*
My lovely friend Mindy is hosting a weekend for women artists at her home. Today is our day for unadulterated creative time. So, I just created a google account and started blogging. I am going out to get my goodies and start scrapbooking in a minute. We are also experimenting with making egg tempera paints, vegetable people, and dance. It's like a vitamin for my soul!
Salutations!
