Day 2-3 At work

Sitting here with my students I find it hard not to think about staying after work for far too many hours. I feel I owe them too much not to stay and do the work necessary to give them a great experience. I also know that if I stay each day I will become burned out which does not help them either...

As my students practice independent reading, these are the thoughts creeping into my brain. Hopefully, I can find a balance to be sure to help them while not hurting myself.

I've been doing well with my other break up goals...working out, eating right, and not drinking.

Notice I didn't mention Vader.

You came back! Nice to read from you again!

I'm sorry you are going through these things. I am also trying to stop drinking and smoking.

It's great that you have that drive to educate the kids.

Thanks!

In the year 2011, I am breaking up with myself. I will be journaling my journey in the hopes of sticking to my plan of losing all of the bad habits I have acquired over the years. This is NOT a New Year's Resolution but an official parting of ways from the woman I have become and an attempt to get back to the woman I truly am... Wish me luck.
