TGIF!

I made it to my first Friday of the school year. How sweet it is! I could never have imagined how hectic this week turned out to be. On a scale of one to ten, I had a week of eleven, Spinal Tap turn it up to eleven type of crazy! I am receiving so much encouragement and support at work, and even an adorable care package came my way. I had an epiphany. My need to control everything at work is linked to my perfectionism from childhood. It's amazing how strong of a grip that type of thinking still has on me. Toward the end of the week, I realized I had to let my anxiety go- no for my sake, but for our sake. I realized I was not enjoying my job, not hanging out with my students. . .and that's why I do what I do.
