January 24, 2018

I am struggling at the moment with my current class. I have to complete two tasks for this class and the first one is straining my brain.  I need to buckle down and get my creative juices flowing. Just a bit vague on some of the requirements and so I get a bit of anxiety that I am going to do it wrong.  I just need to go for it and make it happen. 

After a couple of weeks of craziness at the shop we are getting the crew figured out.  We were able to meet our staffing needs in the kitchen and that will bring some relief to the crew.  That got a little crazy there for a bit and there is still some stuff that is up in the air. 

I am well pleased with the boys. They are working hard on their homework when they get home from school.  Sometimes they need a little reminder and a little push but other times they come in and take care of business.  Big transition with Jack where last year I had to sit with him everyday and work on his math with him. This year he usually does it on his own and rarely asks for my help.  That is great. Natty is also working hard. She needs to stay on top of it especially right now.  This has traditionally been her most difficult quarter and I am hoping she can push herself through.  I know she can. 

Well, much to be grateful for. I had a good conversation with my school mentor today. I have been approved for my preclinical experiences and am set to begin my student teaching in the fall.  There may actually come a time when I finish. I might break down and cry tears of joy when that happens. There were many years when my going to school and getting a degree seemed like an impossibility.  I didn't think it would ever happen. Now there is hope that I will get there. It will not be easy, but it is possible.  A lot to do still to get it done.  Have to stay focused and determined.
