I start back tomorrow

Went to thanksgiving lunch with the Daniel clan and dinner with the Thompsons, both by invitation. It was good seeing them.

I've got to believe the meme on my left. Have to.

These aren't the most turbulent times in my life. I have seen far worse. Yet I have once again come to understand how my mother wound up with the mindset she did.

"Dogs are loyal; people stink."

Yes, she was inebriated when she said that, but it's the thought that counts most.

I remain determined NOT to wind up with that attitude. Don't want to lose that particular battle. I do and I have lost that soul I just mentioned. There are difficult people in the world. Evil ones too. But there are the other kind as well; lots of them. Gotta remember that.





So yes, I am heading back to Florida tomorrow morning, early.  The issue with me is very nearly settled. Not 100% sure, yet, just what I will do when it is. Not 100% certain what I SHOULD do.
Much will be determined by the final findings of the investigation.  Right now, most think I will be reinstated at CLMS.  The union rep is certain of it. But he could be wrong.

There's a chance I will be moved somewhere else.  Do I want that? I went to Florida to teach 6th grade science. If I can no longer do that...

Why is it that, too often, life is a conundrum for me?
