A Decisive Moment

Sunday morning again...and I'm still ruminating on the whole "should I stay or should I go now" situation. I know the opening at the alternative school will be appearing soon, and I have to decide if I want to go there or stay right where I am...

...and I think I'm going to stay put. I have named editors for next year in both newspaper and yearbook, and they are both highly competent and can teach me a lot about those ubiquitous programs. This year is going well, and the leaders who I was worried about have risen to the occasion and are doing great. I think we might even get the damn yearbook done by July 4th...that's my official prediction -- we will have independence on our country's birthday, Rachel, my love.

I guess after 3 years, I finally feel like I know what I'm doing about 3/4 of the time. And I think that's the best I can hope for. I don't want to start all over with new curriculum to write, and I don't want to take home all the problems of the kids who attend the alternative school. My shrink said he'd kill me if I went back to the alternative school, and I think I better listen to him...we have been seeing each other for 12 years now...

Is that my decision, and am I sticking to it??? Hmmmmmmm, we'll see.
