So we have 363 left of this deployment. Yes, I am counting down. I know that I will forget and end up losing the time frame, but to make it easier I will end up counting down months and weeks. Right now I just miss my husband terribly but was so glad to hear his voice on the phone this morning.
This year should go by quickly with it being my first year teaching. I think that it will be okay and that the only times I will have to worry will be when I am off work. The weekends and the weeks off that I have will be the times when it will get too horrible to bear. But I shall survive.
School is going well and I love being in the classroom. I am just loving it and even though it's stressful, it is very rewarding. I think that once I get the whole thing down and I'm able to really figure out what to do as far as planning goes I will be okay. I have a mentor teacher now, but I'm not quite sure how much help she is going to be as far as the subjects I teach go. But we shall see. Right now I just want to get through and hopefully teach the students what they need to know. Some are doing really well but a few of them are struggling big time. But if they are struggling at this point then they must have struggled wherever it was they came from the previous year.
