A New Start....River Trails

I recently received word that I got the job at River Trails. Yahoo! I am super excited to be able to teach at my daughters future school. But also, working so closely to my home....time is priceless. But I will so miss my Wilshire peeps.

We had training on Tues and Wed, district wide. It gave me a chance to meet all of my new teammates. I was really excited about next year....until....I walked in to my storage area.

YIKES!!!!!



And then there is also the kiln room....


YIKES!!!!!


But on Thursday, I sorted through everything in the storage unit.




And started with sorting the paper....Might as well do it right....it will save me in the long run!


Next was paint supplies...


See my sorting areas.....

Now back to my storage area....I'm hoping to uncover markers, crayons, pencils, scissors....So I left some space.

And I'll get "pretty" stackable containers, later, as time goes on. 

The craziest thing I found besides rat droppings was oil paints.....really??? Oil PAINTS???? I have yet to use them because I took watercolor and acrylic in college. Those will be going to a high school...


Can't wait to sort the kiln room! YIKES!!!!

Every picture tells a story...holy hell! I am completely freaked out by the before photos...I think I would have cried. You jumped in with both feet and conquered. Well done, sister! Congrats on your next chapter....

You deserve a raise already! I am proud of what you have accomplished so far! I think I would have just turned around and shut the door!

Can't wait to hear if there is in fact a kiln in there!! Good job, I would have turned and closed the door!! That's NOT a good thing.
