A little of everything


I have been a little anxiety ridden this week as summer school is coming to a close and the start of the new school year is comer closer. I have about one month from the end of summer school to when I HAVE to be back to school for the new year. I have quite a few things that I really need to get done in that time and I'm not sure I can get it all done. When did I start getting so stressed? (funny, I know!) So to day I decided to make a cute to-do list and put down on paper some of the things I know I need to get done. When I went to write it down, it didn't seem like too much, but I still feel overwhelmed. Once I start to cross things off I will feel better though.
I have been doing several things the past few days. Yesterday I had to help Kim do a scrapbook page for a book her family is putting together for her mom, but I didn't even think about taking a picture of it. Last night I went with Merlynn to take some pictures of one of her co-worker's daughters. So, today I did a little photoshopping to the pictures. I'll post a few below.

I've been busy

This is what my countertop looked like on Sunday night, it is my evidence that I was working on STUFF.

These are several cards that I did today. I don't really care for the red one, but it's growing on me a little bit. I made them to use for the teacher appreciation set of cards, but as I look at them now, they all look kind of the same. I don't think they look like the cards we did for this year, but I don't remember because I didn't get any!!!


Mom put together a frame for my letter J out of crayons. I redid it because I had a few smudges on it. I made it smaller also. It looks nice in a frame, but I have a few issues with how I glued the crayons down on this one, so if we make them to hang outside each classroom, I will probably redo it again. Mom and I also decided the frame needed to be about 1/2 inch smaller across.

I also finished a few other odds and ends. I worked on my student engagement cards for my Rolodex, just need to cut them, and type more. It was a very productive day--too bad I have to go back to work tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Playing with Pictures

Trying to figure out the "eye thing" is going to drive me NUTS!!! I have spent soo much time on this. There has got to be an easier way. I did one and it looked like she had alien eyes. This is the best that I have been able to get so far....and I have NO CLUE how I did it!!!
