25 Shirts and 2 Plates of Cookies

Yesterday was tie-dye day.  I went to help Mauri's school class tie-dye shirts for field day.  I tried a new technique, and had no idea how everything would turn out.  The weather was stormy when I arrived (this was supposed to be an outdoor project), so improvisation was necessary.  We ended up on the floor outside of the girls bathroom.  Thanks to some great help, we managed to have every child create his or her own design.  Then the shirts needed to be microwaved, rinsed, washed and dried.  

Done.

The shirts turned out great, and every design was unique.  

And those shirts are ready to go back to the school to be handed out to excited, expectant third graders, many of which had never tie-dyed before.  It feels great to have them turn out awesome, and even better to have it done.

The teacher had also requested 5 dozen cookies for a surprise party for an elderly man who has been volunteering in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade B-track classrooms for several years.  He is moving on to a senior living center next year, and they wanted to thank him for his service.  I had other moms volunteer for the cookies, but had response from the teacher that he had not received 2 dozen of the cookies.  So at 9:30 last night, I started baking.

I dropped everything off at the classroom this morning.  
Can I be done now?  Can my stint as room mom be over?  Finished?  Complete?

One week and one day... I can make it.
