This month has flown. It is shocking to think that we will turn around and it will be the New year. Usually I don't have many thoughts about resolutions but right now I feel many changes are needing to happen with my life - within me. My job has changed, half of my day I am working with higher functioning spec. ed students, they have behavior issues. The kind that will throw a chair in in-school suspension. I have some of these students in regular ed classes, in the learning lab when other teachers could not handle them and in lunch detention. I now have a special place in my heart for these students. It hurts when one is permanently taken out of a class he loves for behavior issues. It hurts that I may never see another student because he has been sent to a special program school. No wonder this month has flown. No wonder I feel the need for changes and chocolate. On a good day I love to work, but there are too many things missing in my personal life. I am not living in balance. I need change. Tomorrow is a new day.
