Thanks for putting up with my mini-break. I just was feeling totally overwhelmed and I needed some time to sort out life. Still doing it, but I am feeling in a better position...at least right now...
I started a new project at work. I have written before about my online teaching gig. It is a remediation program for reading and math, grades 3-9. The majority of our students are at-risk youth, and I have to say that I have seen a lot of growth in some of these kids. So, a couple of weeks ago, I was asked to help out (one of only 5 teachers from a pool of hundreds) on a new project to add additional districts.
It is 20 hours a week, and the bulk of it is during the day. I have been working during Alex's naptime, and Peter has been watching his little brothers while I do this. It has been totally overwhelming! I have been feeling so far behind on everything! That was the start of my blogging break last week. I told Andy this morning that I don't know how to keep up on everything. We also moved kids around bedrooms this weekend. It's just been very busy.
Fortunately, this project only lasts until October. I have also put in for a different position where I am working. Please say a prayer if you have a chance. i should hear about next steps this week.

We keep you in our prayers. How wonderful for all of those other children that they have you to guide and instruct them online!
Will keep you in my prayers, Therese. Hang in there. Call me if you need to....or want to for that matter!
none of my business really but do you have to work?? Maybe a few years off for just the kids???
Again none of my bees-wax but you sound so stressed.
I'm keeping you in my prayers for serenity and joy! take care.
Christine-I do have to work, but usually it is just evenings when my hubby is home. This will last max until October.
