Why I'm dreading Christmas in August
Aug. 3rd, 2013 07:53 pmRene left on July 22. We kept things civil. But even with him back on the west coast, I'm still nervous about him. Specifically I'm dreading Christmas when he comes back. He left me with a stress disorder issue because I just think about the ways he can spoil a holiday with his anal retentive bossiness and it upsets me to anxiety and tears.
School started July 29. The assistant principal changed my assignment from Eng 2 Pre AP and Eng 3 to a remedial writing workshop for kids that failed the writing part of the STAAR test. Now when the principal calls me out in front of the other teachers saying that I've got quite a task ahead of me it's applying pressure that I don't need. I'll say this, the kids at this new campus are not overt assholes (yet). There seems to be about an ounce more maturity here than where I came from.
In the meantime I'm coping with Netflix and a chocolate craving that doesn't seem to stem from premenstrual syndrome.
