Teaching

As I sit here tonight, looking up ideas for teaching spelling, I am in a word-OVERWHELMED! I know it is probably the craziest thing, to think of it being summer and I am spending my evening looking up spelling information. Here is the problem-I get to thinking about it and how I want to find out some more information. So I go see if I can find anything on the Internet-which leads me to about 1,000 different places and down so many roads. For someone whose mind can go crazy thinking about the endless possibilities of teaching, this is not a good thing. I end up about losing my mind!

I commented to Adam, "Trying to do well in your profession can be so exhausting." I don't wish that I had another profession. I don't wish I taught somewhere else. I don't wish anything other than that my mind would not take off like an Indy car when I think about one thing I want to improve in the upcoming year.
