Today I resigned finally! By June I hope to be down to designing, book-keeping, and web mastering only, and working from home! The relief of it all is immense and so rewarding.

This month is a really crazy month, with several scout camps and several more fieldtrips, teacher gifts to be made, my SAL that the threads STILL have not come for (!!!), my house being a disaster, and the Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training I have been taking. I took my son to CERT with me this weekend and we put out fires together as well as learned quite a bit of life-saving first aid and medical info. I do have pics but need to upload them. I realized that last week I spent 4 nights in a row eating in my car, and Saturday night was the first night I was able to go home and relax since Tuesday night. Every other night we got home after bedtime and went straight to bed. The kids have once again graduated Children of Divorce Recovery, and bowling class has it's last week this week so there's a relief off of me. After-school tutoring seems to be winding down and I heard there's no more scheduled so that will be nice. We still have the play we're doing for Odyssey of the Mind but we only have the next two Tuesdays and Thursdays. So if I can make it through May I think June will feel like a cake walk---no school drop-off, no actually going to work, just home home home! Of course, there's still so much work to be done but at least I won't be every which way all day long.

I did get to stitch on Heron House Patriotic Borders today and managed to stitch the third border and almost half-way finish the 4th border. Last night I watched Desperate Housewives and did the red on the pole for Nautical Row. I didn't get pics, hope to have some soon. Unfortunately I now need to abandon these for teacher gifts, and get started on the Merry Cox SAL as soon as my silks from VC come. I got the dyed ribbon from there as well so this should be a really pretty finished piece, even if at this point I can't even get it started!!!
