SUPERPOST: dailies 12/19-12/31.

why, hello 2011, nice to meet you! here are the dailies that wrap up 2010, post-vacation, post-holidays.
 sunday, december 19th: "making our house a home."
 monday, december 20th: "the countdown begins."
 tuesday, december 21st: "maybe i can still make new friends?"
 wednesday, december 22nd: "even more things are changing."
 thursday, december 23rd: "so not the ones i would expect."
 friday, december 24th: "i think i like wrapping presents more than opening them."
 saturday, december 25th: "a very merry christmas."
sunday, december 26th: "just like cinderella must've felt."

  monday, december 27th: "family, just a little out of order."
 tuesday, december 28th: "sent 103 lbs of books across the country to my old new home."
 wednesday, december 29th: "impulsive late night grocery shopping thanks to unshakable jet lag."
 thursday, december 30th: "STOP. BUYING THINGS."
friday, december 31st: "you were a good friend, 2010, thanks for stopping by!"

the dailies 2011 are TBD, that is to say, will they be the same, or different, happening, or not? teaching year one is proving to be a very exhausting experience, so i am reticent to sign on to something only to disappoint. a lot of thinking to be done on this first day of 2011. have a great year, everybody! i'll be back in one form or another soon.

dailies 8/15-8/21.

new teacher training was this week, i have keys to my classroom and WHOA I REPORT TO WORK TOMORROW.
sunday, august 15th: "so not ready."
monday, august 16th: "a space that says, 'inspiration is everywhere.'"
tuesday, august 17th: "new teacher training: so many free pens and totes."
wednesday, august 18th: "high class."
thursday, august 19th: "align and refine."
friday, august 20th: "oops not professional, guess i gotta go shopping."
saturday, august 21st: "outgrowing my bookshelves again."

i have just a few things to finish up before my classroom is all set and adorable, and a whole lot of things to finish up before i'm ready for my students! OMG OMG OMG wish me luck! on the plus side, i'm all caught up on bones and i managed to solve thursday's "oops i'm half-naked crisis" with a highly successful shopping adventure this weekend! i love killer sales and back-to-school deals, and with groupon's awesome gap deal, i will be a very stylish and fully-clothed teacher on the first day of school! have a great week, everybody.

dailies 6/8-6/14.

dailies week two wahoo! this will be a quick one because i am very sleepy, even though it is very early. fun fact: the last pattern-y drawing was loosely inspired by staring into the middle distance at my bookshelf, and the first hand-lettering one is me lamenting and/or punishing myself for getting my car towed. because i am a genius.

thank you ladies and gentlemen goodnight!
