Man it has be one hell of a week. The story really starts about 3 weeks ago. We had count day which is a whole process where they count how many students per teacher and compare it to the entire school. This helps schools that are short staffed by removing staff from schools that are overstaffed. Well my school has a low count this year so me and 3 other teachers were in danger of being moved to other schools. Which was stressful, plus I had a very high matinance class this year and it has been emotionally draining.
I was luckily not forced to go to another school. However, I will be going to Kindergarten and I am excited for the change. IT has been stressful waiting and not knowing where I would be going. Then it was stressful to hear I would have 1 week before moving to Kinder. Then I caught a cold and had to miss 2 days of school. I had to wait for test results to make sure it isn’t covid before I could go back. I am happy it was negative but holy moly I am exhausted and now. I do feel alot better but I’m not 100% and I have so many things I need to do, so many things I want to do.
I need to just slow down though. This morning I woke up a bit congested but w/e, then I went to the living room and Dalton was already out there so I laid on the couch with him for a bit. Then we went to go check the garden and the weather was beautiful! We went out front and cleaned my car, Dalton got to use the vacuum so he was super happy. Sunday woke up and we all cuddled for a bit outside on the porch. The kids helped me change laundry loads then they begged for pancakes and sausage. So I cooked the sausage and eggs while the kids stirred the pancake mix. Sunday ended up wearing most of her batter. That turned quickly into a huge mess and all I could do was laugh. Today was just the dose of living in the moment and enjoying the day with my kids. They are my everything and I really want them to enjoy their childhood. I really want to enjoy their childhood too. Days like this are exactly what I dreamt of my whole life.
