Not lost

Just tired. Way way tired. Yesterday was another "interesting" day as we got to herd our students into the halls to assume the position for a tornado (which touched down less than a mile away). Which led to another near mutiny in my worst class, that missed a test last week and then had a shortened class today. Working really hard on not taking it all personally - small goals, small victories.

And here we are, less than a week from the BIG TEST. I don't care much, which is actually a positive development. I will do what I can. And not worry about what I have no control over - student behavior (unless it becomes dangerous), school politics, government intrusion. Beyond that, smooth sailing.

Lots of trees down from yesterday, some people still without power. Not us for a change, though.

Did I mention worn out? I actually sat down a couple of times today because I didn't have the strength to stay standing. I think my stress meter is stuck on high, and it is burning out the energy from my body.
