Thankful for Monday? :)

Surprisingly enough I am very thankful for this Monday. While most Monday's I can't always say I'm thankful for, I am today.  It is the start to a new week and my director is back. We meet tomorrow to discuss all the fun stuff he's missed over the past few weeks. :) And we get to discuss the issues I've had working on the different English programs.

One thing I have learned about myself being in a leadership role is that I don't really want to be the head or director of anything. :) While I like to be able to have a say in some of the stuff I do, I don't need to be in charge. :) I also know I love teaching. While no one really questioned that, I just know it's a fact. I haven't gotten to do much of the teaching that I am planning and I have missed getting to be the teacher and plan a lesson for myself. :) I also don't know yet how I feel about writing lesson plans for so many people. Maybe if it was just for myself or just for other people but trying to do both is just confusing and more stressful.

This weekend I was able to take some time and just veg. I locked myself in my apartment and slept.  The one nice thing about not teaching on Monday's is that I have a slow ease into my week. It gives me more time to prep my lessons for the week. And translate more of the lessons. :)

Thankfully the stress is hopefully passing. Luckily stress doesn't stay all the time. I realize a stress is apart of our lives but we all need a break from stress at some point. Hope you all are having a wonderful start to your week.
