I know, it has been a very long time since I have posted anything. Not out of laziness that is for sure. We have had 2 immediate family deaths (my mother-in-law and a future son-in-law), 1 very close friend death and 1 past student of mine death all in a matter of 6 weeks. On top of that, our 3 year old labrador was rushed to the Vet, had to stay 4 days as he was entering renal failure and has been diagnosed with Addison's disease. All this PLUS still be a teacher and take care of all my kiddos! Anyone want to start a HAWAII VACATION fund for me? I NEED to bury my
head feet in the beautiful sand on Maui!!! (I go there often in my mind)!
During my spring break I had to take care of some personal items and get affairs in order for the "Celebration of Life" that we will be organizing for my mother-in-law. During this time, I began designing the decorations, celebration invitation and celebration of life theme decor at the
stern jovial request of my sister-in-law. After showing everyone what I had come up with, and after a
lot few oo's and ah's, something in my brain clicked. I LOVE to design (as I have an interior design background) and I love to change my classroom A LOT!! I have decided to start a new business with my son (graphic designer) and came up with "Classroom Couture" Putting a little "BLING" in every classroom. I am SO EXCITED for the little adventure and cannot wait to get up and running. We are currently working on a special theme and hope to have it done by this weekend.
Here is my new website:
Please visit me and tell all your friends. I hope you will like what I have to offer!
Until then, many blessings.
Sometimes life hands us more than we think we can handle! Praying for strength for you and your family during this time!
