Flowers for you

 Happy tuesday everyone.  It's a workday but I am off on tuesdays so I am happy to be cuttting lace and working on my store this week.  Have you seen all the new stuff I got this year.  Last year I had maybe 80-90 items in the store, this year I have over 200 items.  Here's a cute mini card for you all today.

The store had reopened, there's lots and lots of new items including tons of lace by the yard!  Check it out

Sanity

Time to start a new week, so it's MONDAY,  I don't know if that's good or not.  I guess it's supposed to be good. I think a cup of coffee is in order today....man do I miss the joys of Turkish Coffee.  I have a new class at school now, Instead of being a floater I am assigned to the three year old class.  9 smiling faces greet me MWF.

Will miss my kids from last year

 Happy Wednsday, it's the last week off before we go back to school again for the new year.  WOW.  Summer went by so quickly.  But in just two months I won't believe how big my kiddos got.  Many will return to us, but some will no longer be at our school.  I will miss them.

Thank you

 WOW,  I can't believe I have been in Turkiye so long and I just have two weeks left.  LOL. I know most people don't even get a two week vacation, but I will miss Turkiue so much.  I am so spoiled.  I am so thankful to all the kind people here who have been so friendly and helped me and of course to my dear hubby.  Here's a thank you in Spanish, but let me write it here in Turkish-- Teşekkür ederim

Celebrate, it's the last day!

 Happy Friday everyone. It's the last day at FUMP today.  We are having a teacher in-service day. I don't really know what we will be doing. Like AISD, it's supposed to be a training day, but usually involves a lot of clean up and readiness for summer.  Though I know our classrooms get used in the summer time for several classes.  I am getting pretty excited...just FOUR days to go.

Sending special thoughts to all the kiddos.

Today is my last day with the kids.  Tomorrow is the last day of school and Friday is a teacher in service day.  Now it's just SIX days to go.....unreal now, I am sure to my friends and family that i am insufferable in my readiness to go on vacation, lol.  Wishing all the kiddos at my school a wonderful summer and if they don't come back next year, I wish them a wonderful life!!

I appreciate you so much

 Happy Thursday everyone.  The end of the week is coming up soon.  I am looking forward to spending the weekend with the hubby I hope he and I will have a chance to sit down and have lunch together.  That would be lovely.  That's the one thing that stinks about going to Turkiye in the summer. I do miss him so much.

Sprinkles

 Today is day one of the convention.  It is an evening event filled with projects and sales of crafty goodies.  It will run from like 2pm to 10pm.  That's a long time, I will craft that long, but in my hotel, not at the convention.  Eventually I will want the comfort of my own.

Be thankful!

 Four more days to spring break!  lol, is my counting annoying yet?  how about the 84 days left until Turkiye?!?  I am excited about that too.  I am such a blessed person.  I often need to sit back and be thankful for that, like every day and every hour.

Hi, happy monday!

 Happy Monday everyone! It's just a week now until Spring Break!   I know I sound like a kid, but I am excited because as most of you know, I am traveling up to Irving Texas to go to a stamp/scrapbooking convention.  I am expecting my mother and my god-mother to join in this year.

Best Wishes!

 Today is a special day that I won't be working as I am going back to my OLD elementary school to visit a couple of students, one of whom is leaving AISD.  I wish him the very best!  I have seen him grow so much over the last couple of years.  What a great kid. Best wishes to you in your endeavors.

For a dear friend at work...

 Happy Hump day, I should be at work today, though we had something pretty serious happen to a co-worker last week so I may be picking up extra shifts.  I pray the best for her.  Hope you are having a great day as well.
