I am not a huge fan of writing so sorry I haven't been here I have been busy so I almost didn't write this post. Because I really don't have anything to add other than LIKE EVERYONE I have been insanely busy.
One dear friend has been texting me most days saying Hello hello are you there ? and I keep replying CRAZY to which she asks does this mean you have gone crazy or you are crazy busy LOL. She's now switched it to hello are you still crazy?
Anyone who works in schools knows term three is not a whole lot of fun. If you follow my instagram or we are friends on facebook you may have noticed all the work photos and late nights. That is where I have been mostly. I have however been trying to document some of that. After taking a year off from work I refelcted that my whole history of work did not exist anywhere in my memory keeping. Not in photos and not even much mention here on my blog. It's tricky to do I admit because you can't post photos of students or staff or tell any details to any stories when you work in schools. But I have been consciously trying to document some of it - the late nights - the reams of data, data data (EQ is data mad right now) - and a project that had me working round the clock just fell over becasue we have gone into caretaker mode with the election date now set agggh so disappointing. Never mind. Lately I have been head deep in QCS prep for the seniors - marking and checking tweaking their programs. It's time consuming and then I fall in a big heap.
via pinterest.comIn the past I would be all stressy about the stuff that I'm not doing. That internal never ending to do list. Now I'm trying to let it all go. I'm still only back 4 days a week but fitting my 5 day a week job into those 4 days. I'm thinking I'll continue like that next year too. I like the idea of having a day off.
My personal creative side has fallen by the wayside as I have navigated the work schedule and all our home renos too. I think I have come out the other side now. Yesterday I spent a few hours updating my project life album and working on some photos for friends. I have missed my blog and your lovely comments and emails so I'm finding a new balance and already I feel better for it.
