It must be school time…
You can tell by the fact
that I no longer know current events beyond the fact that today was picture
day, and IOWAs are coming next week.
You can tell by the fact that
my trips to the library revolve around resources for my lesson plans, instead
of the usual “shopping” excursion for books on every topic under the sun.
You can tell by the fact
that my rare adventures into domesticity (i.e. cooking) are now categorized as
a distant memory.
You can tell by the fact my
gym card has been gathering dust, and the fit person I became in the summer has
been made extinct by the demands upon my time.
And yet…
I love my job.
I love my students.
I love the challenges.
And most of all…
I love my husband for making it possible for
me to focus on teaching…
