Help me remember it's only August!
Yesterday I found myself getting more and more tense as the day was spent thinking about what's ahead of me in a month! I had to contact some people connected with school issues. One person thought that I had been on a group email list for school and I wasn't, so she "caught me up" with about 10 emails. This made me realize that even though I will only be there 5 half days, they're expecting "full-time" kinds of things from me.
I still haven't heard from U of M Dearborn about getting into their "Inclusion Specialist" program, but that's on my mind!
I spent a few hours working on choir issues--scheduling, picking music, etc., and I'm still not finished!
Retirement is looking better and better, but I've got quite a few years to wait!
I'm thankful to Heidi this morning for her "Up north" blog! I'm planning on spending this day looking forward to my vacation!
"This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoyce and be glad in it!"

It's hard to forget what comes after August. I was at breakfast with teachers this morning, and I too am glad we're going up north.
Have fun up north and try not to worry about the school stuff. No matter how much they want you to do it will never be enough.
I wonder how looking at the end of summer differs between teachers and students. It has to be so much worse for teachers because of all the planning required. As students, we just had to show up and it all went from there. The anxiety of planning has to shorten summer quite a bit. I hope you enjoy your up north weekend! One day at a time...(the slower the better!)
