Tension

My goodness, i am so tense. It's ridiculous. I have had a wonderful Spring Break and crammed in a lot of fun and relaxation. However, now the prospect of returning to school looms before me and I have completely tensed up. I came home from a refreshing walk with Camille and Thomas and was in such a bad mood because I knew that the only thing left to do was to get ready for school tomorrow. I just couldn't bear it so I took a long bath. Then i took a nap.

I am the ultimate avoider. I sleep to avoid things.

Anyway, i finally did my work. But, although i sortof know what we're going to do tomorrow, I really don't have the logistics down. But, I'm so tense that I just can't focus on it anymore. I guess it'll turn out ok.

But, over the course of the evening my shoulders have gotten so tense! I'm just sitting and then I realize that there is sharp pain in my shoulders and neck, and then I realize I've tensed up again!

This is not good. I keep telling myself, I love teaching (and I do) and I love my kids (but still) and I only have 3 more weeks until the AP test! That means a week and a half left of curriculum for Gov!! (I still have FWH...but one prep is much better than 2) After May 5, my life gets much easier and there are only 2 months left of school! The weeks always go by fast, but argh!!!

I will survive!!

Reflection: Why am I so tense!?!
