Buckle Up, this is a lot.
Day #7 of teaching 3rd grade was good.
I’m very tired though. I remember the past 2 years being exhausted for a month straight, even over the weekends. It’s 7:30pm and just getting home
I have literal blisters on my thighs from walking so much and (chaffing) ugh, big thigh problems. Don’t know what to do about that 🫣😢
Good news! We gained 1,000 new followers yesterday so we are at 605,000 squirrel friends filling hungry bellies. And we are 99 people from reaching another thousand new followers today 🥰 incredible how fast we’re growing!
Speaking of hungry bellies, 7 schools are coming to my home (food pantry) tomorrow to fill their cars with food so their students have food to eat at home ❤️🩹
We now have 570/620 Squishmallows to give every child in my entire school something to put underneath the Christmas tree this year. We are so close to our goal. My wish list hasn’t really been moving. Food and squish mellows are kind of at a stand still but I know it will pick back up again❤️
For the last week and a half I haven’t had to open boxes because my friends have been coming to help with this beautiful mission which has been such a blessing. I can’t even begin to say how thankful I am to them 🙏
I’m going to include my wish list in the comments if you’d love to help food or supplies, but just Just saying hi, helps for free❤️
