If January januaried you...
it's gonna be ok. Even with car keys on your face.

Today is February 2nd, if that helps at all.
It is also Friday.
If you’re K-12, you got paid.
You are also smack in the middle of the school year.
*take a deep breath in *…*hold for a moment*… *exhale *
Post secondary teachers, your new semester is revving up. Take it easy.
My private studio teachers, particularly in the midwest, the grey skies and chilly weather are keeping you in hibernation mode. That’s normal.
All educators, you are making literally hundreds of micro-decisions throughout the day.
That fatigue you have…it’s real. I came home last night after a full day of work, and after coaching robotics (with very sincere kids who didn’t want to leave until they had removed a certain part of this robot, which meant I was there 30 minutes longer than I had anticipated, but I did not complain because I want them to succeed and this is what it takes), ate a shawarma pita, sat in the comfy chair “just for a second”, and woke up this morning with my car keys stuck to my face and my poor cat meowing somethin’ fierce because I didn’t feed him last night because I fell asleep.
Take care of yourself. You really are doing great!
