Well readers, I have not written anything or posted in a long while. I apologize! We had a break between the Fall and Spring semesters and I took full advantage of it personally. I spent my time off getting my home ready for when my daughter arrives, getting a head start on my practicum (internship) hours, and just getting mentally and physically prepared for this Spring 2017 semester. I will write another post (or more) on how the Spring semester is going later though.
I am happy to report that the nursery is ready for when baby Kenzie arrives and the rest of the house looks great too! However, I know I will probably go through another nesting phase before my delivery date to make sure everything is completely clean for a tiny human :)! I found out recently that my delivery date is April 7th, 2017 instead of my due date of April 13th, 2017. I'm so excited!
However, I am also stressed out because of the workload- the joys of becoming a teacher. Don't get me wrong, I am still very passionate about becoming a teacher and I do know that the workload never decreases (it probably even increase) when I enter my own classroom but I'm on an accelerated path this semester. I need to be done with all of my assignments, lesson plans, teaching lessons, and hopefully final exams too approximately 3-4 weeks before my classmates. I apparently have the option of taking an incomplete if I do not finish everything by the time I deliver my daughter, Kenzie, but I am not the type of person that can easily let my responsibilities linger. What am I going to do? I know I will try my best this semester and take it one day at a time!
I look forward to more posts throughout this semester and hopefully I will be more diligent about writing!
