blur

So. The last few days have been a little crazy. It has definitly been busier than usual, and somewhat more stressful. On Monday (5 days ago) I was interviewed for a job. Later that day I was offered the position. About 2 seconds after that I accepted the position. Crazy. I'm very happy about this as it is about as close to my 'ideal' job as it can possibly be (except that its not a permanent position....). So Monday I got the job. Tuesday I spent being anxious and wondering what it was going to be like. Wednesday I moved stuff into my classroom. Thursday I set up my room. Today I subbed at the school and spent time in my room trying to think of all the things I am forgetting.... and my students moved their things into the room. On Monday it begins. Me and my new class. There are still some things I am uncertain about, but it will all come together I'm sure. I'm happy to be at this school with some of my former colleagues from a past position. I feel very welcome. Today I had 411 students cheer when they said my name.... how many new jobs start like that??? lol. Some of the students know me too so that helps. So begins the change. This is what I do. So I'm happy to have a class to teach for the year. What change will be next??

ummmm.....

I hate making decisions. I suck at it. I over-think things and try to rationalize to try to make the best decisions possible... and it drives me crazy. I should just decide and get on with it. The thing is that I know that I will have to live with my decision, whatever it may lead to. Arg. I hate making decisions.

So, I'm on the sub list in Winkler, I'm not officially back on the list in Morden, I just dread it so I'm procrastinating... I hope I'm not subbing very long... I'm also signed up to take some French at RRC this fall, hopefully that works out to my advantage in the long run.

Ah well. Thats it for now.
