Working hard on getting caught up before school starts again. I have three days before teachers are back for pre-pre planning. I think I can knock of blue and purple in that time. Last week was busy with leadership things and training before the official beginning of the year. This year is strange because in addition to the usual mandatory pre-planning time, there is also pre-pre planning. It is entirely voluntary, but they will pay teachers who want to come in early to set up their rooms and get a head start on lesson planning and curriculum.
There were a few good sunrises this week. We even managed a morning beach walk yesterday. It gets so hot though that by 8 am we were both dripping sweat. I got a haircut yesterday and have an appointment to get an eye exam on Monday. All the things teachers squeeze in during summer break. We even met friends for dinner! My teacher friend who is also wrapping up all the loose ends before the big transition back to working life and her husband who likes to mock us for talking about school too much.

Pretty greens there on your design wall! You've had a busy summer - can't believe it's time to go back already. People who aren't in the teaching world just don't understand how overwhelming it can be, and you just can't stop yourself from thinking/talking about it. I've been retired 7 years now, and I'm still interested in what's going on in the schools!
What a gorgeous sunrise photo!
ENjoy your sewing time as much as you can fit in!
Enjoy your free days before school days and happy stitching. The sun rise photo is stunning. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful green blocks, nice work! Pre-preplanning? Wow, teachers at my school would have been thrilled to be paid for all the work they did setting up their rooms each year. I had to lead mandatory teacher trainings (usually tech related) before school started, when all my "students" wanted to do was get to work in their rooms!
I feel you, I just finished up pink!
Good luck th6us school year with the new job. I see the tab for 2022 indicates orange for August! Yea, I can cut the last purple and my orange tomorrow for garden path.
I'm always amazed by all you pack into your days. Lovely blocks. Hope all goes well in getting ready for the new school year. Blessings,
