February Deflation?

The sun has finally come out and the temperatures are pushing 60. At lunch outside without a jacket a couple days ago. Strange. Still feeling low on energy though, but the crocus are blooming! Need to finish pruning the trees in the backyard today before the buds get too big.

Even though the weather is changing, I am feeling really demotivated at work. They are going through a transition period, getting away from traditional education in favor of project based learning and other things. I was really into this. Lately it seems clear that the transition is being managed in a chaotic, unproductive way and I can't see much hope for any success in the short term. There is no clear vision of where they want to go.

My excitement for being a part of creating an updated educational format has gone out the window. Makes me feel a bit sad and angry. I will start poking around at other job opportunities, although not too seriously, as there is still a lot that I like about this school. Just need to decide if living with the chaos is worth it or not.

Dear Auntie Caryn, thanks for the Valentine!!
