Blooming

Everywhere here flowers are in bloom. It is no longer dark when I set out for school in the morning and the drive is spectacular.

Main street in town is filled with tulips, yellow and white, showing themselves off in their owners yards. A canopy of blooming white trees greets my drive down the street. Their branches touch overhead. I love to drive this street. Forsythia, planted in rows beside some of the houses, grow untamed in their golden splendor. I want to do a pastel painting of them. It puts me in a happy mood to just go to work.

Spring is wonderful. I tried to post a picture of some of my artwork, but it didn't work, I shall have to work on that.

In other news I have applied for a new job. The official titile is "performing arts coordinator." It would entail creating the calendar for our school system's performing arts center, and doing the advertising/media releases for shows. I would love this. My current teaching situation is so stressful. I "might" get a call next week for an interview.

So the Blog Queen ventured to Ten Thousand Colors. What a pleasant surprise! Thanks for encouraging my young writers. After weeks of Evaluative writing, we frolic in word play.

AHH, yes, spring.

Donna, that's so exciting--the flowers, yes, but also the chance for a multi-media arts job. Much luck...

Boo! That's too bad... But I'm sure something will come along that's just right for a woman of many interests and much energy.
