Been hunting lots of dust bunnies...

I emptied out about 10 vacuum containers FULL of them after cleaning up my Music Room today...& there's STILL more to do...

Thinking about my classroom

Wanting to make it more cosy, but I have very limited time & resources so have been on the internet looking at amazing room displays etc. I bought an old armchair for the room which has been great. Have lots of ideas...I am going in tomorrow to put up fresh posters & freshen up the room & vacuum up the MAJOR AMOUNT OF DUST in everything in there!

Singing along to the 80s mix on in the lounge room...ahhhh, the 80s - weren't they great!?

The man I love...

School holidays

Bonnie went for a late bike ride with D this afternoon. She is such a fit little thing. She crashed tonight though ;-)  [Not the bike, I mean fell fast asleep before she'd had a chance to ask me to read!]

So nice not to have to make lunches & to just have a BREAK from the business of term. I love the holidays. To sit with a book, to do some planning for the next term, to consider topics & what I could do better, to just hug the kids & have a sleep in etc. It's awesome...

*still praying*

for Japan...what an amazing effort to clean up what must have seemed totally overwhelming! Go to the link - it makes me feel so whiney after complaining about the kids mess in my house.

Feel so compelled to pray for these people...it breaks my heart to read that many are turning to suicide. I can't begin to imagine the heartbreak  of being the only surviving member of your family - but I wish I could hug them & encourage them to not give up! There is hope...

Careful...

...saw this on a Blog the other day...watch out for those cliffs hey!?

Remembering childhood with a theme...
