A New Chapter

I am now a 7th grade English teacher...or, I will be one come next Tuesday, January 21. I am bouncing off the walls in nervousness. I've never taught. Well, I did assist one of my very last professors while I was still in grad school, but that was teaching ADULTS ONLINE. Now, I"ll be face-to-face with little people...little people with raging hormones. Am I cut out for this? I'm not sure. I mean, I know that teaching is in me...that this has been my calling (other than being a famous author LOL), but it's hard not to doubt myself because I do have five children, four of which I'm responsible for. This fact makes an already challenging career even that much more challenging for ME because now I'll have the task of not only taking care of MY kids, but the kids I'll have at my school.


That being said, I'm terrified. And I'm bouncing off the walls, not being able to sit still or concentrate on any one thing for too long because my nerves are so bad. I've had my 20-year-old quit his job, as well, so that he can help me with the kids until I come up with a better idea, so yeah--I'm making a MAJOR life change that has me going out of my mind right now. But the reason why I'm going through all this chaos, you ask? It's because it's time; it's just something I have to do for myself so that I can better my and my children''s lives.
