WOYWW 733: 14 Work Days and Counting

Counting today I only have 14 more work days until the summer holidays and I must admit to being ready for them.  By the end of the week, all my report comments will have been transfered across and final data entered.  I will still have some departmental paperwork to complete but I will have broken the back of what needs to be done except for day to day teaching and marking of course.


My desk echoes Julia's from last week in that it shows some items that I purchased from Temu.  Just some cute stickers and papers in case I decide to go back to a daily journal page again next year.  Everything delivered for under £13 seemed like a good deal.
I am keeping up with my #dailydrawing2023 challenge to myself still.  It does at least guarentee that a little crafting takes place each day.
Don't forget to visit Julia at Stamping Ground to see more desks and find out more about WOYWW.  Stay safe and Happy WOYWW everyone.

Seems like you snagged a bargain, until Julia mentioned them I'd never heard of Temu. the school summer holiday seems to be coming round fast! Happy WOYWW. I am going back to bed for a little while, lol! Today's trip out doesn't involve this early a start but my body clock woke me! Happy WOYWW Helen xx

I read good reviews and negative reviews about Temu. Sounds like you had a positive experience.

I love your drawings. I especially liked your take on Familiar. But perhaps you could explain # 169 to a few of us who live on this side of the pond who don't "get it." Happy WOYWW from # 1.

I'm certainly being tempted by Temu, sure I've seen it pop up on Facebook! Some super bargains there. Bet you can't wait till the end of term and glad you have got a lot of the paperwork sorted. I had my little reader again yesterday, she did really well with a little coaxing. Adore your Manatee and your take on canteen. Hugs BJ#6

I do like the idea of a daily crafty activity. I try to do the same - it's so good for you. Well done on getting all the school worked sorted. Only ten days to go! Enjoy them. x Jo

I know that feeling of counting down until Summer Hols!
I am wary re Temu, heard differing opinions.
Take care. Anne x 12

Neet said...

Can see I am going to have to look at this Temu, despite having heard bad reports, as you and Julia have had some bargains.
Nearly there Sarah, soon be summer holidays.
Hugs, Neet 4 xx

Hi there Sarah sounds like you are more than ready for your summer break! I have also succumbed to the siren call of Temu - I only placed an order yesterday so will have to wait and see but your stash delivery looks great. Now get the conversation with Elizabeth lol. Well done with keeping up with those drawings! Have a great week, love n hugs, Cindy xx #13

I am going to have to take a look at Temu, I was put off by the reviewers who said their orders didn’t arrive. Great drawings. I like “mistaken” although I am not sure if the mistake was getting caught or they have the wrong man! Happy WOYWW. Angela #14

I just watched a Netflix Doc on parents who have taken their sick or injured children to hospital, only to find themselves accused and even jailed for child abuse. A very scary and sad doc. which is why "mistaken" stood out for me today. Glad your school year is almost over, I remember the anticipation to the last day of school, and the lovely summer to come! Have a great week, Lindart #16

OOh, I like your Temu bits and pieces too! as long as you don't need them in a hurry I can't see why they aren't good value! Such a busy time of year for you, I'm looking forward to your summer break for you!
