Since I have to do without pictures for a while, I'll have to be introspective rather than demonstrative. I have been thinking for the past couple of days about what it is that I want to be sewing, and why I'm not. I realized that a lot of the "sewing" I've been doing has been fulfilling the need to get some stuff out of my sewing room. I have a pile of flannel that I'm not doing anything with, but can't stand to throw out. I have a bunch of bags I'm sewing as a business, and I'm looking forward to having them completed as well. By next Friday, as it turns out. I don't even have all the fabrics I need yet. The designer has been really good about turnaround time, but the company she's working with seems to not understand the idea that I'm not devoting all of my time to this. Still, the pieces should be done on time. They just added a website component to their list of things to do, but that's not my problem. I never signed on to do instructions, and I'm happy to work with them, but I think their timeline is completely unrealistic. We'll see what happens with that. Hmm.

No subbing all week. It's finals week at the High School, and teachers just can't be sick. So there. That leaves me with planned time off, which has been kind of nice, since finals week also means a late start, which means sleeping in. It's been lovely, but now it's over <sigh>. The HS here starts at 7:20, which I think is totally unreasonable. It's even worse when I have to get up at 5:30 to see if there's a sub job available.

Tomorrow's a runaround day, but I may not be chauffeuring in the afternoon. That would be special!

Do you have to call in/log in to pick up sub jobs? In our district, the automated system calls out to the subs. I can log in, but usually just wait for the phone to ring. At this point, most of my sub jobs are prearranged.
