Hello ladies,
My Monday post is quite late this week. You might even be seeing this on Tuesday. School will finish next week. ~smile~ I subbed today and will tomorrow. That might be the end for me. First thing I want to do is make strawberry jam. 🍓 I use the recipe in the Sure Gel package.
The weather... Rain!
Right now I am... Tired. I subbed in a special ed class today. Tomorrow 5th grade.
Thinking... I want to revisit my Spring Bucket List. I want to do what I can, then maybe add some things to a summer ☀️ bucket list.- John from The Bible

Favorite blog post last week... I can't even remember if I've read a post this past week!
Something fun to share...

On the menu for this week...

- Friday ~ Something from EveryPlate
On my to do list... Just try to hold things together until school's out!
In the craft basket... knitting and a bit of mending.
Looking forward to this week... My son's are delivering the sofa and chair I bought on Marketplace. We've been in bad need of new to us furniture.
Looking around the house... It is looking a little lived in after three days of making merry this past weekend.
From the camera...

| It's not to early to think about gifts you can make or thrift. I'm planning to make extra jam to give this year. |
On my prayer list... Salvation, healing, financial provision.
Bible verse, Devotional... Philipians 4:6-7 “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
Now, just a note. I homeschooled my kids for over 25 years, and now I work in schools. May is crazy with kids! Give yourself grace and try to take some breaks. Y'all will get through this month!
Have a terrific week,
Laura

ReplyDeleteOh yes, subbing in special ed can be exhausting! I remember volunteering in my daughter’s kindergarten class and being exhausted too. Whew!
