I had such a bad barometric migraine all of last night, so I took a sick day today. I have over 150 sick days banked up. Because I am-
a) rarely sick
b) hate making substitute plans
c) all of my personal days roll into sick days at the end of the school year
d) I've worked in the same school district since I was in high school myself
e) all of the above
The correct answer is E. But this year I have an extremely competent student-teacher as a built in sub, so for the first time in my career it is actually easier to stay home.
Anyway my head still hurts, but I'm not throwing up, so that's progress!

I knew I was struggling with constructing proper sentences again but didn't realise how bad it was until I'm desperate to write again and the sentence structure is just falling apart in my brain

Tag: Word Find CCCLXXXII
I was tagged by @tabswrites and given the words light, shadow, fire, and ice. Thank you!
From Indigo Wars Book 1, give y'all a taste of the project I've taken past the first draft!
LIGHT (Violet's POV)
She sank into the tub and submerged her head. The water rippled above her, diffracting the light into patterns and obscuring the shape of the ceiling. She remained underwater until the waves had stilled and her lungs were screaming, but the image of the woman’s dying face remained seared onto the backs of her eyelids.
SHADOW (Violet's POV)
An impossibly tall figure loomed to her right. They were well over two metres tall, wrapped in a loose parchment-coloured robe, the cowl revealing only an impenetrable shadow instead of a face. It seemed more like fabric draped in the shape of a human than an actual person.
FIRE (Violet's POV)
“Stop reading!” Elliot’s hand splayed across the page, obscuring the rest of the entry, and his face twisted with bafflement. “I never thought I’d have to say that to you.”
She scowled at him. “I’m almost done.”
“You’re not supposed to be reading these at all. I just got this job, Vi! If Mr. Benton finds out you read these on my watch, he would have an excellent reason to fire me.”
ICE SNOW (Maisy's POV)
They broke out of the forest and thundered across an open field. The sun was high in the cloudless sky and the first signs of spring were starting to appear through the deadened quiet of winter. The snow had mostly melted away, leaving thick mud and dull grass, and the creatures that had disappeared when the weather had turned cold were starting to show themselves again.
Perhaps not the best snippets to show off this project, but hopefully a lil something for you.
I tag @squarebracket-trickster, @sleepyowlwrites, @akindofmagictoo and anyone else who wants to play! Your words are throat, tough, type, and try. As always, no pressure!
