December

Took today off..... so much to do.  Way behind in work for my class, and honestly, somewhat over OHS.  Needed a break.

Trey (Terrence) is doing well.  No major issues, and easy comparative to Tim and Jes.  Still, he is a 5 year old boy, so there are things that just go with that.  We adjusting well, although David is a bit sick right now (major cold) and I am having trouble getting my work completed.  We're still working on routines and having him able to do things on his own- particularly entertaining himself when David and I are busy with other things.

Christmas tree is up, and a visit to Santa at Woodfield with Mom over the weekend.  We have Fred's old fake tree, which actually looks OK, all blue and silver.  We have not done any shopping yet for him, and need to figure out when we can get it done.  School winter concert last week.  Cute that he believes in Santa.

Schudel told me that he will not be returning to OHS next year, which may put my internship in jeopardy.  I feel like I'm creeping towards the door anyway; just not a good fit.  First, the distance in combination with the hours- putting me home around 5 and not wanting to do much work, and with Trey, it is nearly impossible.  Second, my educational philosophy is very different than the status quo there.  My mind-track is college prep, where that is not the norm. Third, I miss the collaboration.  Definitely does not exist.

So I'll be busy with resumes packets over winter break.  Stopped over at FMS yesterday to return some things and definitely miss it.  Think the bridge is burned, but maybe not.  They have a Spanish teacher now.  We'll have to see.  I think I want to be closer to home though.

Otherwise,tired and behind with TTDs, but otherwise OK.
Work to do.
