End of Vacation...

well, today is my official last day...off. it has been just the BEST month...i didn't realize how much i needed it. maybe i should type that with an exclamation point...i NEEDED that!!!! :)

i think i'll get more excited as i get back into it...to be honest there's a part of me that's so excited to finally have my desired role per the change a few years ago. took a long time to get that moved from "words" to "action", but the lessons learned in the meantime have been priceless. so, we'll see how it goes...what actually sticks. ;)

one bummer that keeps on coming to mind though...part of me is not excited to do some of the "parent" stuff again. don't get me wrong...i LOVE working with kids...it's just that it's parents who sometimes make it...unpleasant. and my struggle...especially in a christian school where deeper opportunities should abound...i end up dealing with the occasional "religious" people...very into appearances. really hard for me to stay professional sometimes...especially when i see what it does to kids...well, heck, and a culture of people who find faith revolting because of a few "white washed" ducks.

but, i guess we'll just keep swinging...

so...here's to a fabo month off...and so many cool experiences...and rest.

now looking ahead to...possibility?...maybe so. i'll rev up more excitement as 8/1 moves ever closer. :)
