I am at that stage in my teaching career. Where nothing is new.
But everything is exhausting. I buried my grandmother in January and we are at the end of March 2022.
I took care of granny for several months.
There were no limits.
I poured all of myself into her care.
At the time it felt honorable and a must do.
It was just me and granny.
Then
well
Exhale
Granny died and instead of resting, I went to work teaching at a high school.
That is another noble job
And we are completing school based assignments
I work as a Technical and Vocational Trainer or Creative Arts Teacher
So, skills teaching require time that is not time tabled
So, we teachers just two of us sacrifice months every year
giving time from our lives.
I am still at depleted but I have not crashed yet
