Taking a day off means not working on a Saturday.

You see words misspelled so many times, they start to look correct.

You even grade papers in your sleep.

Eventually all free food starts to look good.

Parent conferences can happen anywhere.

Hilarious! I loved that. You are sooooooo funny!
Thank you! 🙂
All is true!
Yep! 🙂
Hi Carie,
I really enjoyed your latest blog, especially the cute illustrations.
Is that your artwork? You are so multitalented! I can sure relate
to those years when I was an elementary grades teacher. Glad you
are enjoying your own days back in the classroom. Lucky students!!

Yep, those are my illustrations. 🙂 I’m glad you like them! My dad’s a great cartoonist, so I get my tiny bit of talent from him.
I am dying. The illustrations are fantastic! My favorites arethe bleary-eyed teacher at 5PM considering the old pizza slice and the parent conference at the wine shelf. 🙂 I’m glad you’re embracing *all* the aspects of teaching again. You are a strong, driven individual, Carie, and I admire you. ❤
Thanks!!! =) I’m so glad you liked the bleary-eyed 5pm teacher cartoon. It was my favorite too. (I looked in the mirror to get the eyes just right, haha.)
This is too cute! I love it!! Your illustrations are perfectly charming 😀
Thanks! The irony is that I spent my Saturday off making those cartoons about working all the time. Hee hee. Oops.
