There's something both refreshing and exhausting about getting to school early.
Today is going to be a long one.
With after school practice and before school meetings, today is shaping up to be thoroughly tiring. It is also refreshing. Due to some other commitments, it has been difficult to keep my schedule as consistent than it has been. This year has come with a great deal of extra responsibility which has been exciting, but has taken away from my personal time. Surely this is not something new to most teachers out there. Multiple preps, new responsibilities, second jobs, parent-teacher conferences, and everything else in between contribute to shorter days and less sleep.
All that considered, it is good to be busy. I feel like I am accomplishing more. That positivity is beginning to pass from me to my students. Happy teachers are better teachers.
