This is me.
As a teacher, I get to enjoy summers with my children. It's a blessing. It's precious time. Precious moments, if you will. But there are times when I feel like this dog.

It's calcium! And she has to eat something!
I do know this: the things I worry about so on Monday, I normally sorta figure out by Thursday. So I'm good.

What are you worried about? Maybe we need to embrace the confusion. Maybe we need to look around at one another and realize we all are just living in one big improv exercise.
The drama teacher says, "You're 33. You've got two kids. One just told you to get her juice very forcefully and the other is crying ... GO!"
Wondering if other people feel this way.. Let me know.
Until next time...
