ScrapHappy Saturday - Lights and Tunnels

Sailing last weekend was lovely! We don't usually get sunsets here, just the rises, so it was such a fun change to watch the sun sink down into the ocean. 
The sailboat was adorable though rustic. Kurt did all the work of prepping and shopping because he is remarkable and I have been a crazy lady lately. Things will settle down very soon. 

I think I can see the light! Yesterday was the career fair and I should be able to go back to normal work hours for while. Hurray for having some time off. Just one more busy week with the trip to DC for our Blue Ribbon celebration I hope flying to DC the day after the election isn't  bad idea. 
I got up bright and early to turn in a paper about multimodal teaching methods. It is a beautiful thing! Mostly though, it is done and I will settle in to relax with some hexies for a bit of sewing time. So sorry about the late start again today. I truly do hope to get back into some sewing routine soon. I am sure that you are all sewing enough to make up for my neglect.
Here is Kurt who was one of our career day speakers. Isn't he cute? His topic was "Space Domain Awareness, What We Don't Know Could Hurt Us". He said the kids had great questions and seemed interested in what he had to say, he brought one of the new grads from his office as well. We had a #1 New York Times bestselling author, our Florida state congressional representative, doctors and lawyers and engineers a plenty.  50 speakers and 1000 student schedules and food and logistics, it was all a lot so I am happy that it is done so that I can sleep again at night. I think that sewing some and binging some Netflix is a great plan for the rest of the day.

Sunsets over the ocean never grow old. You and Kurt look like you are having a great time.

Sounds like a wonderful career day. But wonderful does take a lot of work to pull off. Hope you got your stitching and Netflix this weekend.
