New Day

Today feels like a new day. It's funny how rare I have the feeling like a day is a new day. Often, I am carrying the burden of responsibilities not fulfilled the day before such as grading worksheets, preparing a lesson, doing my homework, or picking up my clothes. Lately, my burden has been this huge 50 page write up that I'm creating, as yet another requirement for my credential. It's a big deal. It's a big deal even though the chances of me getting a job for the upcoming academic year are slim. I started writing bright and early this morning. I feel great. I hope this will be a new day when I will get what I need accomplished for the day done. It also gets me one day closer to my hubster being home. (He's been in Colorado on business.) Cheers to the new day!
