Freeport

Decided to go back to Freeport.
Thought I would feel better, but I don't.

Interesting.

Decision Day

Back to Freeport this afternoon to meet with Ms. Norman.
This is the last meeting- will make the decision today.

Still debating in my head.
David says I can do what I want to do.

Does not make it any easier.

Mid-summer

It is about that time in the summer that I need to start preparing for the school year.

Summer meeting with Auburn admins this morning.
It went fine, nothing major.  More so a conversation to re-connect with non-tenure teachers.

Interview for my old job at Freeport this afternoon.
Not sure how it will go, not sure if I really want it.
I asked for my tenure back, so there is the backdoor.

I need a smaller "pond" and I do not see opportunities with RPS.

Hate putting myself in this web, but need to push through it.

Summer procrastination

When I have nothing to do, nothing gets done.  I always work better with schedules and lists.
Minor accomplishments, but not much else.

Mood is "riding the line" lately.
Things to say, but not quite sure yet.
A number of cross-roads at the moment, and maybe hesitant to choose the path.

Just need to bide some time.

First week back

Our vacation was very nice:
Summer in Aspen is beautiful.  Want to go back.
Vegas is Vegas, but nice to spend time with Dad and Jennifer.  The Cosmo turned out to be somewhat of a disappointment, but for the conveniences of the pool right out the door and the dog area on the same level, it was was perfect.
Oklahoma City was surprising nice.
Visit with Mom at the condo was relaxing.
The drive itself was not too bad, although if we do it again, I will cut the drive-hours to 6-8 (instead of 8-10).

Trey is at Camp Winnebago for the next four weeks; day camp with Thursday overnight.
Thus far, he seems to like it.
Last night was the first overnight, and we'll see how that went.  No phone call though, so that is a good sign.

Around the house, kind of being a bit lazy.  Procrastinating a bit.
Things to do.

Egan house back on the market.
Surprised David is hesitating, but not that surprised.
I am still hesitant myself: move or not to move.

Spanish position at FMS.
Applied and sent a message to Nick.
Not sure how it will turn out.  I asked for my tenure back and a fair placement on the salary scale.
Auburn is OK, but I need a smaller pond.
Wait and see.
