This is a story of a girl....

Where do I even start? Forgive me for the bulleted post - but I think it will be easier than trying to make my random thoughts make sense.

WORK

There is a lot of inner turmoil going on in my department. However, the lady who makes my life hell on earth is leaving. She got a new job. She is out of my life.  I couldn't be happier.  There are still a lot of issues going on here in my department. But my job is steady and she is gone so I can deal with the other BS.  19 days and counting until her moving van pulls out.

SCHOOL

2 more weeks.  Keep swimming, that is what I tell myself atleast. Just keep swimming. I will be glad when the semester is over. Then it is really time to figure out what I want to do with my life. 

TEACH

I miss it.  The laughing, the lesson plans, the kids, the busy, the same hopeful routine that never works. I miss teaching. I think I figured out what I want to do with my life. Now the question is do I stick in out another 2 years here and get my complete master's paid for or do I take a leap of faith and try something new/go back to something old.

LOVE

I am head over heals. It is pretty amazing.  I really never thought I'd find someone that I could manage to get a long with, someone that made me want to be all happy, sappy romancey. (I am sure that's not a word).  I shared the blog with him, he encouraged me to write and talk about stuff and promised he wouldn't read it, but really even if he does - it doesn't matter. He loves me for me, so the whole weight thing isn't nearly as horrible as I thought it would be. Plus I really don't think he will read it. This whole love thing is what has got me thinking about teaching.  He lives about 40 mins for me now.  Isn't to bad right now because he works in the town I live and then I spend weekends in his town.  But if I took a job teaching (there a lot open in his town)... well it would just make life easier.  Plus if I have to be a work outside the home mom, what is better than having snow days and summers off with my kiddos? I really think it is a no brainer. But we will see.

EXERCISE

 I have fallen off the wagon. Hard. Eating, water consumpetion and exercise haven't been in my vocab in weeks. I really really have to get back on this. SOON! It is so easy to just be happy with my body because I am happy with everything else. But truth be hold, I'm not happy with my body so it is back to the wagon I go with it.  Instead of learning WW new program, I am going to stick to the old one till I go back to meetings mid Jan (When the restart at work). If I track EVERY single thing that goes in my mouth I can lose weight slowly even with out the exercise - but I am really missing exercise.
