I Heart my First Year Teachers...and an Update

The Epc*t Ball 2008
First of all, Congratulations to all my First Year Teachers......All systems go. All remaining have passed with Good ratings and all are in line to be presented for Contracts next year. (Keep it up...please) I am so Happy.....their Success is my success. This world NEEDS Good teachers that have the PASSION. Passion is what it takes, because it sure as hell isn't the money! All in all on my Rooster I lost 6 teachers for various reasons.....last year the Teacher Trainer in this position lost 17. True about 4 were unavoidable but the remaining in my opinion had potential. Hey, Teaching is NOT easy and it is even harder to do it well. If you go home your first year teaching and you are Full of energy and ready to run a marathon....you didn't do something right. (And I don't care what the books say) Really, Really Good and Dynamic teachers are more than likely going to be zapped energy wise for a while....it is just part of the process.


UPDATE about ME - Ok, my usual cycles are super regular...no spotting & usually 27 days since forever. NOW, this has been crazy.....I started cramping suddenly on about CD 15 and that night SPOTTING began.....I have been spotting every SINCE!!!! I feel that my Period is coming ANY day & I am only CD 22. ARG! Since I had a split minute BFP last month....I thought maybe this was a crazy miscarriage residue, etc. Just weird to me because in those few BFP days nothing much could have been started up. Well, I am writing all of this down and CHARTING only next cycle. If this craziness continues I am getting evaluated again by a Dr. regarding these symptoms. If it stops and all goes back to normal then, I will be back to AI after vacation. That hopefully puts my next AI at the end of May/ First week in June.

Wish me Luck Bloggie PEEPS! Nightie Night!

That is very strange that your cycle is so off :( It always stinks when you are TTC and things are not going the way they should :( BOO!

Sometime I'd love to chat with you about what you do. As much as I love being with the kids everyday I'm realizing more and more that I want to be with the teachers and help them to become awesome teachers. I actually just applied for a job like that here in Boston so we shall see.

*HUG*

That's too weird about your cycle. Isn't it just "lovely" how things go all haywire when you're TTC? It's so frustrating. :(

Sounds like you are doing everything right with your teachers. That is a hard job.

Hope your cycle returns to normal. This process is crazy enough without having to deal with unusual cycles!

crazy cycle stuff... I wish you LOADS of luck! wondering, too, if you've peed on a stick lately to double check what's going on?

Congrats on your teachers!! Terrific accomplishment that will affect likely thousands of lives. Good work!!!
