Back to School- Not Staring Rodney Dangerfield


Busy week, back at school with lots of meetings and getting ready for the year. I have until labor day to complete my list of to do items, but I am proud that I am returning to school with a completely cleaned out house, garage, and storage space and have gotten much done.

I was really sad kissing Ben good-bye this morning, and it has really hit me all day that I think I am at a point that I want to be home in a part time or even full time capacity in the near future. I love what I teach and working with the kids, but not the soul-crushing bureaucracy that seems to accompany the profession. I have made it past the average 5 years that most do!

I was contacted recently about writing curriculum on contract for the Duke TIP program. I think I am finally willing to take the chance to try another way to use my degrees and knowledge. I have know options outside of traditional school without having to start over in a new career if I just have faith that opportunities are out there.
