Stress
I am crazy...that's the only explanation. I was supposed to be done being a teacher after last year. I had a new plan, albeit a sketchy one. But I wasn't going to do this to myself. Instead my plans fell apart and I'm back in a classroom. Never left to be honest. But now I think I may really lose my mind. Taking over a class that has been through as much as mine has is beyond challenging. It's overwhelming and I'm feeling stressed to my limit. I found out Tuesday I'd be starting Wednesday and worked my butt off to plan and prepare since I was left with no plans, no information, and no time. Worked on pure adrenaline until Friday morning when I crashed and just broke down. There is so much to do, so many hurdles to overcome, so much to set up and establish. I want to cry just thinking about it. I'm not sure I'm good enough to do this. To be what these kids need. I'm scared and I'm frustrated and I'm overwhelmed.
