It’s been awhile, but I don’t want to miss the chance to write well wishes for the holidays and a happy new year. It’s been a year full of new adventures, sewing projects, new recipes, home projects, and more to write about…as time permits.
Last year I stuck my toe back into teaching, by becoming a substitute. I thought I’d do it once or twice a week as a break from my regular work. Well, I enjoyed it so much that I substituted every day of the school year. Then, I accepted a full-time teaching position for this year. Every day has been a new adventure. I arrive home at the end of each day exhausted with nothing left in the tank, but happy and looking forward to the next day. I don’t want to sound smarmy or magnanimous as I say this, but honestly, this feels like the most important work I can do right now.
Now that I have a full semester under my belt, and time to prep for second semester, I’ll hopefully have time to do some blogging again. I miss it. Until then…
Have a lovely time, however you celebrate these special days.

Merry Christmas to you! Congratulations on the full time position. That has to be so rewarding but I’m sure tiring…. I’ve wished through the years that I would have picked that career. I remember teachers that really influenced me in elementary school and high school.
Bailey is getting his masters so he can become a professor down the road…we will see.

Congrats on the full time position! Subbing is a good way to test the waters, so you don’t go off the wrong deep end dive. Merry Christmas.
