Yep Still Here

Yep, I'm still here. I've been trying to work on some projects plus do all the end of year stuff at school. May is an exhausting, long month if you work in education. Especially when it's a middle school (which means graduation and all it's work.) Bear with me. I will be back.

Hugs to all,

Amanda

Saying Goodbye

Hello everyone. It's been a long, hard week. Book fair at school/work and of course the students are getting wild because summer vacation is coming. Today I had to put to sleep our dog of 13 years, Rascal. He will be sorely missed. He just got so sick last night and I couldn't bear to see him in anymore pain. Rascal was very much Seth's dog. They did a lot of things together.

Trigger keeps wondering where he is. He's pacing a lot. He'll settle down eventually. Trigger turned 2 today. So there's a bright spot. Perhaps we'll find him a companion. Someone closer to his age that will play with him.

So, not feeling too cheerful I turned to my sewing tonight. I got my bedroom curtains done, well at least one side. I went to F&M Fabrics over spring break. A dangerous store if you like to decorate and sew. It's huge and the prices are right. I only paid $5 a yard for all the fabric I bought. Score! Here's the one side. It's night and I know we're not supposed to use a flash but I couldn't wait to post a picture. I'll take better ones soon.

Mucho hugs to all,
Amanda
