Tomorrow will be my first day back at work, although I have been attending meetings for the past 2 days. I am not really looking forward to it, but it will make the days go by a little quicker.
Jenna went to her babysitters for the past 2 days and she loves it there. So, at least she has been coming home in a good mood. I hope it lasts.
My school year is looking good. I have only 7 students this year, last year I had 11 so it will be nice to have a "small class." Of course, all of my students are very involved, so 7 students are still enough to warrant 2 aides in my class and I am getting my same 2 back this year!! Yeah, they are awesome. Very sweet and very hard workers.
There is a new teacher across the hall and I don't know if we will get along too well. She is a new teacher, young and very idealistic. (Was I ever that green?) Anyways, we shall see how it goes. I think I will just stick in my classroom and keep my nose down.
Of course, it is still very tough to be without Kelly. Add to that the fact that I start college classes in 1 week and that makes it even tougher. I really don't know how I am going to do it. Most days I am so exhausted already and now to add even more work on top of things.
Of course, things will get done, they always do. My strong sense of responsibility makes sure of that, but the stress has really been getting to me. I guess I should relax more, but I just can't find the time for that :-)
Sometimes, people look at me while I am out working in the crazy heat, or when I am totally exhausted, but still working and it shows. They will say, "Just don't worry about it, let it go." My answer is always the same, "If I don't do it, who will?" Someday maybe I will lose this weight of the world on my shoulders, but not yet.
And so, onward and upward. I am going to try to keep this blog going again, but if I stop it is only because I am exhausted and overworked! Feel free to come over any time and play with Jenna so I can do something, anything! :-)
