Oct 13 Almost In the Books

I’m talking about the week.  And what a week it has been.

It has been one of those weeks where most things have seemed to be more challenging than usual, more of a fight than usual, and where I have had to put my advocating pants on over and over again.

I’m drained.

And I am not talking about the kids I teach.  The kids I teach have been the bright spot of my week.

So on that note, Thursday’s happiness is a 5 year old’s intuition that their teacher may need just a little more love than usual.  Thursday’s happiness is feeling lucky to have the best job in the world.  Thursday’s happiness is having learned that after a week like this, things usually get better.

Next Thursday I’m 30.

Bring it on.
