Ugh

Today was just a very down day for me. I'm struggling with some anger over aspects of my job and how the principal at my school handles things. I get so attached to my students, and I want them to have the best days at school that they can. Yesterday was a bad day for one of my kids, and I can't do anything to change the situation. I'm very concerned and upset, and I guess I just need time to let it go. I know most everyone has a boss at work, but there's a very dictatorial aura about my principal. I'm tired of it.

I still love teaching, though. They'd better not forget where the battle described in the Star-Spangled Banner took place. Just to see, anyone out there remember off hand? (Anyone... anyone... Bueller...)

I'm hanging in there, though. Just four months til I get a break!
