Angry Expressionistic Self Portrait.

The list of colors that relate to feelings, as done by my second graders. They are so smart!

Rock Star Day!!

One of the other art teachers gave me this cookie and invitation to the Day of the Dead Art Show at the "collaboration" today. It may be too pretty to eat!

October Twenty Seventh, Twenty Eleven

Today was Old Person Day, so I dressed the way my Baba would have dressed. I miss her.

We had the Fall Festival today as well and I painted faces. At the end of the night a former student asked if she could paint my face so I said sure, and this is what I got.

A temporary spot for the First Grade Day of the Dead Skulls. I needed to fill two bulletin boards for the Fall Festival tomorrow, but I am going to be submitting (and hanging) them on Saturday for the Day of the Dead Art Show at the local college.

Twin (Triplet) Day!!!

Decade Day with my own hand knit jacket. It's still pretty warm here, but I am sick right now so I've been bundling up a bit.

October Twenty Third, Twenty Eleven

Can you believe it? Two days in a row that the same idiot parks next to me, making it a little difficult to get out of my spot. I almost took my mirror off trying to back out both times. If I had more time and I wasn't feeling like crap this morning I would have left him a strongly-worded letter on his windshield.

The perfect chunky pb&m sandwich!!! Perfect coverage!!!

October Nineteenth, Twenty Eleven

So I was thwarted by my door today. I got back from lunch and there was a broken off bit of stick in my key hole. I pulled some of it out, but it didn't solve the problem. I was locked out, and had a bit of a breakdown because I didn't know what to do. I was prepared for my classes, but everything I had was INSIDE MY CLASSROOM. The only thing I had with me were my water bottle and my lunch box, both very unhelpful in this situation...

October Nineteenth, Twenty Eleven

It's a sad day when I realize that I can no longer wear half the skirts I own because I am inadvertently giving people a free show when the wind blows.
