at school on Thursday. It was the last class day for students and an early dismissal day as well. I had been contacted by the computer to sub from 8 AM to 10 AM. I thought that was a bit odd so I went ahead and showed up at 7:30 AM as I normally would for this school. When I got there I found out there would only be two class periods -- 2nd and 5th -- and 5th period started at 9:55 AM (5 minutes before I was scheduled to leave). On top of that, the teacher I would be subbing for didn't even have a 2nd period class. I ended up spending two hours in the teachers' lounge doing redwork before I was asked to go on ahead to the classroom and stay for the 5th period class! I was able to get quite a lot accomplished on this Jacobean-style redwork flower. (I actually was in the classroom about 15 minutes before the teacher arrived and relieved me. )
Anyway, I worked on this piece off and on during the rest of the day at home and finally finished it late at night. It's amazing what you can do if you put your mind to it (and have a little "down time" in which to work)!
