I suppose I have some time to update! I always have a lot to say, but I’m so scatterbrained from fatigue and having so much to remember all the time that I can’t think of what I wanted to write about.
I suppose I’ll start with how school/student teaching is going. I feel like I’m barely keeping my head above water every week. I’ve also forgotten to do/turn some things in. It’s difficult. I have so many things to keep track of, that even when I write them down, sometimes I forget due dates and whatnot. School work isn’t the only thing I have to remember, after all. I have to remember dates and times of appointments for everyone as well. It’s hectic.
I also really don’t like being at the high school. I miss my kids a lot and feel like I’m doing something that I’m not really into doing. I’m not teaching yet, so I’m just going along with whatever my mentor teacher is doing and I hate it. I hate disciplining all day too. It’s just not for me. I dread doing this everyday when I’m by myself in the classroom in January. It’s overwhelming and I feel like I have a tenuous grasp on everything as it is. I’m also not getting much sleep at night. The kids go to bed late, and Lorelei is teething and she’s been sick. Cannon has been sick a few times already. I’ve been sick for the past three weeks too.
I’ll be glad when I graduate in the summer. I’m ready to move on.
Anyway, Cannon is doing amazingly in preschool! He loves going to school, and his teacher is very nice and so is the support stuff. I went to his back to school night and I love going to his school and seeing his art on the walls, and the pictures they take. I wish I could volunteer!
We are losing another babysitter next week. I’m so tired of this. :( This is the second person to quit since August. My kids aren’t that bad, I really don’t understand it. They were with other families for more than a year, and suddenly they both decided they wanted to go back to school? I don’t buy it. Whatever. It’s just stressful. And the daycares around here are way more expensive than we can do. We looked at one on Friday and it was going to cost $2,000 a month, and it was not even that great of a daycare. I wouldn’t send my kids there. Who has that kind of money? We will never have that kind of money.
Sigh. I’m looking forward to Halloween, and I’m also looking forward to spending a few days with Jacob later on this month. We need some “us” time. We are barely able to hug each day.
Well I suppose I should finish some things that need done.
