This week was fraught with stress and anxiety.
But it ended with relaxation and a much needed SLOWED down day.

November 4: I get to meet my very first niece, Maria Mae, who was born at home, med-free in about 20 seconds.

November 11: Cort gives me a Saturday and I get to sit in Starbucks and write…with no interruptions. boom.
With grades due, parent teacher conferences looming, a late night staying up to see the election results…
well…
the start of the week had me wanting to crawl into bed and hide for the week.
But by the end,
After some lovely chats with students’ parents, great teamwork with co-workers, the understanding of the best husband in the world, and a couple hours with one of my best friends in the world,
I ended the week with a smile on my face,
and a renewed energy for the upcoming week.
It’s always so nice to go up to a new week, with a good ending to the previous week yes?
May you have a great week ahead.
