I got formally accepted into Teacher Ed today and registered for Spring. All I have to say about that is, when I'm finished, I will have lost about about 50 lbs from running around like a chicken with its head cut off and not being able to afford food. It's ok though, I really don't have a choice and it'll all be over before I know it. Life goes on, it's gonna get bad before it gets better.
I am thankful for the fact that I have a roof over my head that no one can take away from me. It may not be straight out of Southern Living but it's my "mansion in the marsh". I'm thankful for the fact that I am able to go to school and further my education and in 6 months, I will have 2 perfectly useful degrees. I'm thankful for the fact that my student loans are on deferment and I will get some forgiveness when I start teaching. I'm thankful that my health is good, as I don't and won't have insurance until I start teaching. I'm thankful for the 5 minutes of contentment I get a day before I start pressuring myself all over again.

I like the end of this post! I wrote a post last night about pressure and this seems to be a simple remedy to not putting so much on: being thankful for what I do have! Duh- why didn't I think of that?!?! ( :
