The best thing any of us can do is to take back our lives and do the best we can. I'm sorry he's being a jerk, but it isn't unexpected. What can you do that will help your financial sitch this summer? Any ideas? I'm going into a temp agency next week to see what I can get there......
Taking D's to a big anime convention in a (fairly) nearby city. It will be fun. D16 will be bringing a couple of friends.
I know what you mean about self sabotage. My mind goes places I'd really rather it didn't. I am getting better about getting out more quickly though. Practice, practice, practice. You'd think I'd be a pro by now.
Can you teach summer school? Maybe D can sit in the class and color, practice preparing for the next year? At least it's something and only a few hours.
I'm reading The Power of Now to help with my mental lashing out. It was recommended by someone on these threads and she said it changed her life. I'm on chapter 2 so we'll see how it goes! Just wanted to throw it out there though in case you girls wanted to check it out too.
Yes, I want to teach summer school, but my school, will not let me because I am switching to another school next year. Nic, Huh/ I taught summer school for the past two years.
Thank you for thinking of me, Dar.
I , too, have heard the CD's of Power of Now. It is really helpful. Sometimes i forget what i learned..I am glad to hear your are progressing.
That's really sucky of them Kiki! If you're changing schools, it doesn't matter really and shouldn't effect you teaching summer school there. They just don't want to pay you for leaving?
I'm trying to progress. I've got to... don't like how things are so something's got to give.
