Back to School I Go

(sigh)
School started back on Monday. I, on the other hand, feel like I just started today. I hate to admit it, but this going back to work thing is taking a lot of energy. I have been sitting to rest a lot, but I am talking non stop, and that takes more energy than you realize. Now that the week is almost over, my energy level is up and I am ready to go. Hopefully the weekend will give me even more rest, so I can be back to myself for at least another week or two.
I had my second treatment last week and, like a fool, decided I was well enough to work in my classroom the next day. Not a good decision. I was sick all weekend, and I blame lack of rest. That and the fact that we have had triple digit weather. I now know that I may need an extra day to rest up before going back to work after each treatment. That is going to hit my pay check pretty hard, but I'd rather be happy and rested than tired and miserable.
I got another fill up the other day as well. I finally decided I needed to ask how many more times I was going to need to get filled. The receptionist, who I was talking to and scheduling my next 5 fills, just laughed and said, "Ask your husband!"
I am not yet sure how this year is going to go. I don't have the energy to get too angry with those who are trying to push my buttons. At the same time, I'm trying to keep my stress level down, but I have already found it difficult. This is going to be a crazy year for me, my team,... and the kids. My body will be going through all kinds of changes in the next few months. My chest will be ever expanding, my hormones are going wackadoo, and I'm just waiting for the moment my wig falls off in the middle of one of my classes.
