Teachers Year End Exhaustion?
tourist   Intermediate BC CANADA Member since 7/23/07 Posts: 5423	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 6/27/12 8:08 PM Soooooooo.......tired. So very little patience with my young students. Those annoying behaviours that have just been piling up for the last 10 months just getting to be too much! Must hang on for two more days. Wish me luck. ------ http://bgballroom.wordpress.com to follow the progress on my next ballgown.

Just think you have two months to enjoy, and by the end of August you will missing the little darlings.

I'm nearly a month into my break, and have been enjoying every minute of it! Those last two weeks were grueling! Good luck! ------ Visit my blog at http://sewingsaga.blogspot.com If it's worth sewing, it's worth sewing well; and if it's worth sewing well, it's worth FITTING FIRST! - TSL

The long summer 'holidays' aren't real holidays, they're sick leave. Good luck. ------ so many patterns, clamouring to be sewn http://patternpandemonium.wordpress.com/

tourist   Intermediate BC CANADA Member since 7/23/07 Posts: 5423	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 6/28/12 6:52 PM The upside is that I have been sleeping extremely well! That makes me at least feel this is serious tired-ness and not all some mental gymnastics my brain is doing. I don't usually get sick at the end of the year but certainly know a lot of people who do. It is probably smart that we never seem to vacation right after the end of school, DH is still working and I just putter around and play in the sewing room for a couple of weeks. Good old fashioned fabric therapy! Feeling quite a bit better this afternoon and not crawling in the door craving coffee and chocolate. But I may just have some anyway. ------ http://bgballroom.wordpress.com to follow the progress on my next ballgown.
