life happens

Sometimes life is just too much!

Right before school started there was a death in my family and I had to travel to the memorial service...then 8 days of teacher training started...then we all started school...a new schedule and a whole new routine to get use to...now 2 weeks into school, my aunt has passed away and I am off next weekend to another memorial service...a 6 hour drive away...

I am worn out and just wanting to get caught up enough to do some scrapping, some relaxing and having some me time...I haven't done one thing...not one page...not one card since school started...that makes me sad...

I'll get it together...that's just the way I am...but this year going back to school has been hard...

but I did manage to take back to school pics on the first day of school...after all the posing on the first day of school...I kept shooting and captured this one last wave before mags started 2nd grade...my favorite pic of the day...

Sorry about your aunt and your other family member and that everything is so full right now.
Hoping things settle down for you so you can enjoy some scrappy time!
