I have been stuck in some negative mud and I try to get away but it is finding me even in my secret hiding places. It isn't fair for me or all of you that care about me to retreat so I will do my best to stop. I don't plan on spilling out all the negatives because the positives (the students and my personal satisfaction while teaching them) is far better than anything. I am doing fine and making some great progress with my class. They are good kids and work through all that they have been given to try their best. I even had over half my class visit me for Halloween treats tonight! I am glad I went into teaching and will get past the non-teaching issues soon enough. Also, I am thankful for the many conversations I have had with people back at home as well as the care packages. The fruit, student gifts (they are loving the gum, pencils, trinkets), puppy treats, and all the goodies for me as well, are well received. The care for us definitely makes the trip! So again thank you.
There is a lot that can be said by avoiding sharing the "down" parts of life but being so far away it isn't fair to hide them either as that causes acts of retreat. I will do my best to keep in touch as I said good or bad...so until next time (hope I will post much sooner than the last one)...
