oh, it's just me...

...sayin' hi.


I've been missing you.
It is June and I have been running on empty.

It's almost done, just tomorrow (Friday) to go.
The children are gone for the summer
and it's just me...
...and a thousand piles of paperwork.

And miles to go before I sleep, but...


...when I walk out of the building tomorrow evening,
I will have completed a year
that was hard.

I seriously LOVE this photograph,
not only because it's beautiful,
but because it perfectly portrays how I am feeling
at this moment.
It is summery hot and sunny out and
I can feel peace knocking...
but I am fatigued.

Forgive me for posting before this is written and completed
but I am finding it to be a perfect resting spot

and I didn't think you'd mind.
You are so nice to me, afterall!


Love, ~k

Tomorrow you will be able to sigh with great relief and say, "I made it."
For now - breathe - just breathe.

This page is a perfect for a summer that is all yours...tired, but waiting for your words.
Kathy, I have several friends who are teachers and know how exausting the school season can be. In fact, when fall rolls around I lose all my friends again...they're so busy : )
Consider this the beginning...your beginning.

Rest is just around the bend...may this be a wonderful summer for you dear sweet Kathy!

Kathy, do I know how you feel... this week I have been feeling I have ran a marathon and am just a few feet from dropping on the ground, completely depleted of energy... And it is ok that it is not finished. This is your space where no judgement comes, only acceptance for the wonderful women you are.
