I went in to school the other day, got over ambitious, and then I got overwhelmed. I thought I was ready to go, but then I decided to do some re-arranging and moving things around. Halfway through and about an hour past the time I was going to leave, my stomach started to get tight and everything became all consuming and I wondered to myself why I started this project at all.
I left and things felt a little better.
I went back the following day for some planning with my partners and finishing the mess that I had left the day before as well as cleaning up things I was beginning to find stashed about the room in crazy places.
I can't believe that summer is almost over and that school will start again so soon.

I am right there with ya girl:)
Patrick said tonight that I seem different...he said that I seem on edge. I told him that he is probably right - I feel stressed out and overwhelmed. But ya know what? We just got to go for it. I am sure it will be great. Its even better that we get to work together this year - I am really looking forward to that. And hopefully we can help eachother stay sane:)
I hear ya! We do need to keep each other sane no matter what that means. I can see lots of happy hours and secret messages sent across the hall. I am glad that I am not the only one that is feeling this way.
Even though we are tons of miles away, I know that the stress of school gets to be too much. I have already been working for two weeks, one full week of teaching 4 full grades and am exhausted and ready for Christmas break. Sad but true. I figure that it will get better for me, as well as you! Hang in there Kilipohi!
