Whew!

Our meeting this morning went very well.  I am relieved (very) but still concerned.

Tentatively, I return tomorrow or, at the latest, Monday.

This has been an ordeal.  

So things are not so very bad as I had feared.  That happens a lot for me. Wish it didn't.

I AM THINKING I need to get out of the education business for good, after this year. So many times my intentions have been misunderstood.  Same thing this time. It seems the concern was that some of the girls were concerned about my hugging them.  Guess I should have been more aware.  I'm told they will be removed from my classes and placed elsewhere, to protect all concerned.

guess who, cute lil stinkbug!

This has been so godawful.  Word is that Mr. Mccue is anxious to get me back. Need to talk to him, like, right away.

Still very concerned about how I will be perceived, particularly considering that I have been gone for three weeks. The "word" is out, without a doubt.

I need to get away, this weekend, out of my RV, out of Lake County.  Got to get my head right.

It's over.

Thank the Good Lord Above, it is OVER.

Mr. M tells me that students have come to them in tears, worrying they weren't going to see me anymore.  When he told me that, I had to fight off the tears myself. A parent even  contacted him, saying her daughter really needs me to be her teacher.

This has been a HORRIBLE three weeks, horrible.
