Hi, I found you and your pre-trip report on the July board. I'm counting down to the end of stress the same day as you. Our last day of school is also June 19th. I am the 1st grade room mom for my DD6's class. We have the class party the 18th. My nephew's Bar Mitzvah (of which I am organizing it all) is June 20th (with a service on the evening of the 19th too). I am the chairperson of the decorations committee for the big Project Graduation Party at the high school. The decorations must begin being removed form the shed on the 20th (without me there because of the Bar Mitzvah). The fire retardancy professional is coming the afternoon of the 20th to treat our decorations to get the fire marshall's approval. They start being installed on the 21st (again without me) and finalized on the 22nd. The big party is the 22nd. I have extra work to make sure everyone who is going to be there knows what they're supposed to do and what gets done (since I won't be there to supervise). THEN.... on the 26th my DD6 has dress rehearsal for her ballet recital that is on the 27th. My DS17 has a college preview day conflicting with the recital. Then my last day on the board of directors of my synagogue is June 30th. DH and my 23rd anniversary is June 29th!!. DD6 turns 7 on July 1. I don't even have time to plan her birthday party because DD21 just put her "moved up" wedding in August on my plate!!:bride: I NEED A VACATION. :earsboy: Our Disney trip is just 10 days after DD's 7th's birthday. It won't be until then that I have time to do shopping for the items on our list that I don't already have!! I can't wait until all this is over. Next year, I will not be on the board, I will NOT be a room mother (I promise to say No). I will not be planning a Bar Mitzvah. Of course there is the little matter of DD's wedding. :scared1:

You'll love the Contemporary. My DH stayed there in 1973 close to when it opened. Yeah. I haven't stayed there, but my sister loved it in January. We'll be counting down to No Stress Day!! :woohoo: together.

Thank you for understanding the stress.

Not a lot of people seem to really understand how I'm really affected by it.
 
Hey guys.
Yeah stress keeps pilling up.

The entire year I've been part of the "gala" comittee at school. We are doing a gala show for the kids who did the greatest this year.

I'm in charge of the decorations as usual (it seems that it's what art teachers are for)

And now I am responsible of the mics. Eek!!!!!!!

June 6 I have a b-day dinner.
June 7 I have a b-day dinner.

June 8 is the day I am setting the stage up.

June 8 pm is one of the dress rehearsals.

June 9am I teach.

June 9pm is the last dress rehearsal.

June 9 at night is the Gala.

I wanted to take today off but there's only 1 substitute teacher that I trust and she couldn't be here.

So here I am going to work with a headache.
Ahhhhhhhhhh.

Hopefully I can take a day off after the Gala.
 
Oh... they always want us artists to be in charge of decorations!! However, I find that I can be much more creative when I'm well rested and not so stressed. Project Graduation is not really getting any new and creative decorations this year (though mostly because of the lack of time to comply with the new fire marshall's restrictions). I've got to work with what we have from past years in our shed.

My DD21 has been trying to get a job as a substitute teacher here in Loudoun County, VA. They can't finish up her background check because the only job she's ever had (working for Target since age 16) can't give her a reference because of their dumb policy. The boss she's had for years is no longer her boss, so "can't" give her a reference and the new boss doesn't even know her yet. Plus, he doesn't like her (she talks too much he said). She says if you don't talk to the customers you can't give good customer service!! Duh!! Target is not getting it! She's also an artist. She'd be an awesome sub. She's in college to study to be a science teacher. :goodvibes

You're in the home stretch though. Just one more week. Its 9:30am and I've already spent nearly 2 hours working on last minute Bar Mitzvah details and a few Project Graduation details. I can't wait for Disney!

I find that viewing pictures of Disney, especially of clutter free arts zones like the Contemporary Resort and of course our Saratoga Resort to be relaxing and helpful.
 
Good luck finishing up the last few weeks of school! For those of us searching for teaching jobs (aka ME LOL) I would love to be in your shoes right now...even if it is stressful! :thumbsup2

Wanna sub for me? hehehe
 
Hey guys.

I'm back from party number 1.

My friend was glad to see me.

I was eaten alive (by the bugs).

The BBQ was fun. Only staying till 9.

I'm soooooo exhausted I feel physically ill. I almost cancelled on that.

I went grocery shopping with mom this morning and felt like I was out of my body. My mind is like not working.

So I'm thinking I might cancel on tomorow night.

I'll see.
 
Yup, I cancelled.

I'm in no mood and condition to go to that dinner.
 
Hey guys.

We received our DME enveloppe yesterday, June 9.

It's exciting.

But at the same time there are still things that may prevent us from going.

We still need positive thinking!
