Welcome to Litsy!

I just retired from education, so this is a particularly poignant question for me. I loved the kids—most of them were so sweet and so much fun! I loved being a librarian (unfortunately only two years out of my 18 year career) SO much! It was so much fun! And I loved (and still do) the friendships that I made during those years—such wonderful people! ❤️

Took me all day but I finally came up with three things.

1) The library.
2) Marching band.
3) Swings.

1. I have to steal @Kshakal answer, Scholastic Book Fairs. Gosh, the thrill!
2. Playing in the band, being the drum major 🤓 🪈
3. Miss Nancy Lindell, best teacher EVER!

Bonus - seeing friends. I‘m looking sort of forward to a gathering tomorrow to celebrate 36 years? We could not do math.

Tagging all the school kids!

1. Scholastic book fairs and the book flyers - I‘m still searching for the high these two things gave me 😂
2. The smell and feel of new school supplies. Each folder and notebook was color coordinated and the “ugly” colors were always my math ones 🤣
3. New clothes for the school year! Omg! Is there a better feeling than feeling 100% confident in your first day of school outfit?!

This was a fun trip down memory lane @dabbe Thank you 😁

Thanks to all who shared. 🧡🤎💛
1. Meeting this gal in high school. We're still best friends even though were a thousand miles away from each other. 👯
2. This group of seniors from my sorority at the University of AZ. We went through a lot together. 🏝️
3. Dressing up with my English colleagues every Halloween. Such fun. 💀

1) The school library. It was the place that I discovered some of my favourite books. Jane Eyre, Jacob Have I Loved, etc. it was also the place that I felt the safest @ school.

2) My three bookclub friends. It was the place where I met my longest friends, almost 30 years ago.

3) My English and socials/history classes. Also discovered some of my favourite books in those places. ⤵️

1. I loved (and still love) summer vacation, even if lately it‘s more of an ideal than a reality. Anyway, I‘ve also appreciated returning to the structure of the school year, even if my younger self didn‘t necessarily articulate it that way.
2. In elementary school I loved music class in whatever form it was offered.
3. In high school I loved Spanish class.

I also love that there‘s a BTS Leslie Meier cozy mystery!

#TLT #threelistthursday three things I love about school 1. Every day is different this is doubly/triply true for me because I‘m a supply/occasional teacher by choice 2. I work at the same school all the time now and I often tell the teachers I will plan an art lesson for them ( lessen their work load) 3. The kids think I‘m actually the school art teacher ( if only that job existed) I post the art we do on my IG acc‘t with the same name @mcctrish
