Here we go again – Round 5

It’s strange to think that this is my fifth year teaching. Some of it seems so routine now. I’m not nervous about what comes next. I know what to do. I take charge of what I can and feel like I know what I’m talking about.

Meetings started Thursday. And it’s been straight meetings for two days. I have a new lab now, and since it appears to have finished updating, I get to spend Monday and Tuesday making sure the programs I need work. And then the kids arrive on Wednesday, and we are off and running.

I love my job. I work with great people. I work three days a week and see the kids only once a week. It’s a dream job and I doubt I’ll ever have one as good as it again. Yet I’ve been tense and unable to relax the last two days. I’ll have to figure this out.
