Design Wall Monday, August 15, 2016

Pictures at end of post.
Getting up at 5am and getting mentally ready to deal with an overload of information and then dealing with students until 4pm took all my energy this week! I hadn't realized how totally exhausting it would be both mentally and physically. Then getting home to a filthy house just defeated me. Hopefully, this week will be better but with all this rain, I don't know!
Then the flooding started! Water everywhere! We are lucky since we are dry. The towns around us are not so lucky! The rain has stopped so now the water is moving to the bayous and rivers and finally to the Gulf. That rising water is a big problem. Most rivers around here are between 3 and 9 feet above flood level.
Goals for August 15th to August 21st.
Handle life as it comes. No goals and no plans for this week other than surviving subbing, the water, and helping my neighbors who haven't been as lucky as we have.
On Saturday I will try to sew!

  1. Let me know if I can provide anything quilty-wise for your neighbors. I have lots of finished tops and can provide backs and batting -- just not the quilting.

  2. Teaching has to be absolutely exhausting! Hope the flooding is going down quickly.
