I have been
absent from my blog, and was planning a post to catch up the one or followers
as to the “why” of my absence. Here is a
comment from a recent blog on ANRspace.com that was written about me…
“I like following her blog --
and since there are 2 weeks between her Feb 13 and March post, I do suspect she
has a 'life' apart from her blog unless she was comatose or hibernating.”
I will not
address the negative person nor their comments here. This blog is about why I’ve been absent.
Straight to
the point – Not only am I a full time substitute teacher, I’m also a coach, the
President of my local library advisory board and the Chair of the ArtHop
committee; the library is putting on an ArtHop in May.
In my
private life, I’m a single mom. My
daughter is also involved in a fair amount of activities outside the school:
NHS, Jr. Library Council, Christian Fellowship youth group, and was on my team
I coached. So on top of keeping up w/
my busy schedule, I also keep up with hers.
If I didn’t
mention it before, and I think I did…
My ultimate
goal is to be married sometime in the next 4 years and begin working towards
ANR after marriage.
Once my daughter
has entered college and moves out, I want to be able to totally focus on my
new(ish) relationship with my hubby and build a life with him. At least, that IS the plan. I guess only time will tell how successful I
am in achieving this goal.
As with any
journey, there are times when one must take a pause, or take a side trip, etc…
That is all
these last two weeks have been. A small
pause in this journey to bring home the last two weeks with my team. These final two weeks of the season were
incredibly busy. I didn’t date; I didn’t
research; I barely slept. I’d start
my days at 5am, get ready for work, tend the chickens, and then leave. I had work, then coaching duties, and
meetings in between or after. Many
nights I didn’t get home until around 10pm.
Then I had to check over my daughter’s homework, and do what I do every
weeknight to get ready for the next day.
I’d get to
bed around 12am, and have to start my day again at 5am.
Yes, now I DO
need to hibernate and sleep for a while… it won’t happen, but yes, I do have a
life.
Stay tuned
as I will be blogging soon about the 2 guys I had dates with ~ a total of 3
dates.
