work is busy. teaching is a unique career in that you could literally work all of the time and have no time for anything else. really.
but i have decided to make choices. and not to feel guilty. if i work until after 6 pm,then there is no scenario where i should have to ALSO go home and work. even if it's just a "little grading" while watching tv.
it's ok to just be. to rest. to relax. to putter around my house for my own pleasure.
and teachers struggle with this. there are unending deadlines. loads of cares. but we are nothing without rest and relaxation.
so.
finding balance.
it's my choice.
i want to work hard.
and i want to be whole.
so i choose rest and things that help me grow.
now, i also have to write a novel by the end of the month with some of my students.
no problem. right?
ha.
oh well, we are having a good time trying.
blessings.
