I hope your year goes well and you are able to squeeze in some fun stuff after school starts.
I teach K-5 music, too! This will be my 6th year of teaching (one year was middle school and high school, the rest have been K-8 or K-5). I'm not looking forward to less sewing/quilting time...especially at the beginning of the year. It seems like during the first month I am in bed at like 8pm. My husband teaches too but does the high school's television station and has to supervise students who broadcast school sports and/or community events once or twice a week so those will be the times when I will definitely have time to sew/quilt.
Well, off to work in my room! The kiddos come back on the 17th.
