There are not enough words to describe the week. Due to major changes at school, each class on our entire grade level (7 4th grade classes) got 2-4 new students last week. I got three, one of whom is known in teacher lingo as a "special client"! To his - and my - credit, we had a good week. Then the other boot dropped just after dismissal on Friday and due to totally different grade level difficulty, I will be getting a "special, special client" this coming week. I can't even think about it.
On top of that my professional development course that is hard to get into and not flexible timewise started on Monday. It is more complex that I even imagined,but at least I find it interesting! So every waking moment has been spent on that. Thankfully this week was academics "light" with the new students and I didn't have a lot of grading or prep. Also, thankfully, I had a plan in place for sewing.

I set up the quilt to just do spirals and that's all I did! Usually sewing is soothing, but this week it wasn't. Maybe it helped me and I didn't realize it. I will continue with it this coming week. My sewing took a hit since I was on autopilot, but that's okay. I knew not to force it but just do what my mind and body needed.
