Teachers, take heart! In less than two months, you’ll be free.

Time to add new stamps to your collection!
trade school projects for home projects…
A little gardening, perhaps?

Poof!
How about hours of Netflix watching, sunbathing or sitting in a coffee shop to just…
you know, drink coffee?
No grading to see here!
Don’t you feel lighter already? 🙂
