What a year. The first half of 2024 was the second half of one of the roughest school years I've ever had. The summer was hard due to my finally being able to deal with some past emotional trauma. The new school year which started this past fall has proven so far to be one of my best ones ever. I've decicded to semi-retire and move on from being a full time classroom teacher at the end of this schoolyear. I just don't wanna run that show anymore. It'll be nice to end my full time teaching career on a positive note. The last four months have been really challenging with a hellish election season. I didn't get the end result which I wanted so it's all been pretty hard to take. I guess my goal this year will just have to be finding joy in the least likely places - even in the dead of a cold winter.
