When is Christmas break????

becca gave me and daniel a blog citation, for an overdue blog.

Well, right now I am looking forward to Christmas break, beacuse teaching is exhausting. I feel like I have never worked so hard and felt so responsible. It was a nervous wreck for about the first month on and off. Boy was my anxiety bad. Only in the last couple weeks have i begun to settle in and freak out less. Somedays are better than others, but mostly i feel like i am trying to survuve one day at a time. At the beginning i was trying to do too much and didn't know what to do at the same time.

I have some kids that drive me nuts, and I worry about my kids a lot too. Everything is so new, I am trying to balance everything and it has been a challenge.

I saw one of my students at Starbucks wednesday, I was all worried that they would tease me the next day, but it turned out to be fine.

Daniel is same old same old. We did say a very nice rosary together last week.

Daniel is back into Magic full force now, there are cards everwhere. He is making decks all the time. He has taught one of his friends at work to play and he comes over sometimes to play. I never have anyone over, I am too embarassed because the mess, oh, and I have no friends.

But I have a new friend on the horizon. I learned of a household sister of mine who is a new teacher too through our prayline email, so we connecetd through that, then I learned that she teaches in Charlotte and used to live in Buffalo, then the next email I find out she lives down the street from me!!!!! We are going to try and meet up soon. I think this is an answer to my prayers.
