At the weekend

I have just had the best weekend I've had in a long time. I didn't have any homework to do. My course has finished! I am now a Newly Qualified Teacher. I can relax. Genuinely relax. I now have a job as a nursery teacher in a school. I'm working till we finish for summer. In two weeks I have six whole weeks of relaxing and enjoying. I think the last time I had a free summer I was 21. Right now I am one lucky lady. I'm hoping I'll get back into the swing of blogging again soon and start sending postcards out again. I hope you are also feeling excited by summer and the daydreams it brings. See you soon!

  14. I just love your line drawings. They are so simple, elemental, and yet they the objects are so identifiable. I like the certainty of your hand.
