Holiday grief

The holidays are confusing right now. I want to be festive, but more than anything, I'm just exhausted. And I'm struggling to know the "right think" to do with celebrations and such.
I think the key is for people to be supportive and understanding. I don't need to be told how hard the first holiday season is/will be. Duh. I simply need your love and a little patience as I navigate this time.

This illustration is a good start to understanding how I feel.

First grads

My CE2 student was the first graduate for the Class of 2019... in the entire Tigard-Tualatin School District!!!!!

Leina graduated on Oct. 11 - just a month after school started!
Enrique finished a few weeks later on Oct. 31:
So proud of these two - and all my other students working hard toward graduation 💓😃

Nos. 36 - 40

No. 36 - Deborah Coonts's Wann Get Lucky?
No. 37 - James Patterson's Jack and Jill on audio book:
No. 38 - James Patterson's Four Blind Mice on audio book:
No. 39 - James Patterson's Mary Mary on audio book:
No. 40 - James Patterson's Alex Cross, Run on audio book:
I took an audio book break over the summer because I was doing a lot of group projects. But I've been doing more solo projects in the last little while, and audio books help pass the time :)

I mostly read paper books at bed time. And because I'm so exhausted these days, I don't get many pages in before I fall asleep!
