It's been a long week and things have not gone my way :( I am really trying to stay positive and "let go" (my olw)! I am sick today, really sick, I haven't been this sick in years and I HATE IT!! I was working on a couple freebies when my computer crashed, fortunately most everything was recovered, but those files weren't so I can't share them with you today. Our roof is leaking it's going to cost $8000 to repair it! See the list just goes on and on!!! Don't even ask me how my students were this week....I think TGIF sums it up well except I wish I was enjoying my time now rather than lying here feeling like I'm half dead! Now it's time to "let it go"!!
Here's what I am thankful for...
At School
* My students are making some progress
* I have a job for the rest of this year
* It has been a really mild winter so running between buildings has not been that bad
At home
* I have two wonderful children and an amazing husband who are taking care of me :)
* I have a cozy bed and fluffy blankets to keep me warm
* My computer is working again ... I about lost it when it wasn't!
And
* Next weekend I get to meet all of you wonderful Michigan bloggers :) :) :) that really makes me smile :)

As someone who left Michigan because I wanted to feel more secure in my job situation- I have to say- that leaving/moving didn't solve the problem. With the cuts, cuts and more cuts, it's hard to feel confident anywhere! (I sincerely hope that I didn't overstep by saying this- I just can relate to the feeling). Things get better! I hope they will for you soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks Julie, ultimately that is what has kept me here this long, I keep thinking every place has it's problems right? But I always wonder what it's like elsewhere, I guess it's the whole grass is greener thing. I really appreciate your comment!
ReplyDeleteOh yuck - I'm so sorry you've got so much on your plate. Can't wait to meet and have a good 'ol time!!!!
ReplyDeleteFeel better!!!!!

Amy, I have been thinking the exact same thing out here in Nevada! I just wish I could find a place where I don't have to worry from year to year. And I moved here from CA because I thought it would be better here! It's not. And they are more rigid in what you teach....meaning I have to follow a book. Wish I could find a place that "had it all!"

Wishing you a better day tomorrow! The situation is much the same in AZ, we have also thought of relocating else where for more stability.
ReplyDeleteOh no fun! Things will start looking up!! I like your "let it go" attitude =).
