So, somtimes this whole thing sucks (downer post)
Hang in there. One thing I like to do is to each night (when I am in a funk) make a list of at least 10 things that I am grateful for. Not the obvious stuff like my husband and children, but rather the little details that I need to slow down enough to appreciate- like my daughter today referring to her favorite Chinese restaurant as "chicken on a stick"- the name she used to use when she was very young and that was her favorite food, and that I had long forgotten. Today, one of my students left a chocolate chip cookie on my chair with a brief note of kind words and signed it the cookie fairy, and the student who did it gave me what he would consider the very best part of his lunch- really, can kids be that friggin wondeful or what?! Of course they have no idea about the cookie demon I fight... Anyway, just take a moment to feel the love :) We love you back here and I hope things turn around for you in short order.
