Slow Down

 Today I was on my way to church.  I filled up my car with diesel.  I was so frustrated because the pump would not take my card and that the pump did not fit.  Now it is at a repair shop.  I am so mad at myself.  Probably be a lot of money


Then my landscaper came and I had mismarked a check.


I just need to slow down.  I think that is the one thing I need to focus on the new job and find out what is important to my new boss.

Little Surprises

 Since this situation has been happening I have been more sensitive to the little and big surprise of God


I don't like my job.  It is hard.  The people are difficult but despite it I learned how to love all my students.


Friday my students stayed calm when the other teacher was super late.  Ava did not plop back from the bathroom.


I ran into my friend Steve who has prayed and I have been able to share with at the gym.  I got to witness to to a few teachers Friday.


I got part of my stuff back.  I caught the aide stealing stuff.  


I caught my staff Gaslighting me. 


I am being sabatoged by the vice principal as well as a bad review from my boss.  I know I need to slow down and focus but with all this negativity and lies I see that it is just spiritual warfare



My friend found a way for me to have less stress transiting kids.  


I confronted and it back fired.  But I did it. 


Many of the staff see me doing everything.    Just 24 days left.

Wow what a week

 Sunday I had a good day.  The other supervisor whom I liked asked me for a job.  Then Monday I found out I was released to drive and the medication.  Tuesday i came back and started to take stuff home.  Wednesday i went to my vice principal and asked that my walk through be changed.   She was willing to make the changes.  Then I found out my aide had stolen a lot of my stuff. My boss told me that I needed to get my own stolen stuff.  Thursday I got a bad eval.  I know i have a lot to go in this position but I am glad I got another job.

God does not do simple

 It all started with Sunday and I got an offer from my dream job.  I decided to take it.  Then I found out I was clear for the neurologist.  Today I had a meeting with the ssistant princ to talk about my walk through.  It went well and I was able to get her to clarify the situation so I would not be blamed for the poor classroom situation.  I also found out my aide had been stealing my stuff.  My boss told me I could take the stuff back.  I told her that it was pure lying.  Supposely the stuff is back in my room.  I went up to my aide and told her that I needed the stuff back in my room and that I would press further if the stuff was not returned.  I also threatened to contact the district.  The aide lied and said i was leaving and retiring.

Breakthroughs

 Sunday night I was given an email that I had been given a position in Oak Forest.  Then yesterday I got a pair of  cute librarian glasses and asked for a refund on the grandma glasses.  Third I went to a new neurologist and was released from medicine and able to drive.    What a day. Thank you Lord

The Tide is Turning

 

It has been a few days and they have been pretty crazy.  First on Thursday my other teacher was evaluated.  She did not really interact with the kids and one child had a extreme behavior.  Then I was approached by three people who asked me if the other teachers did anything.  I answered honestly.  My kinder teachers really have my back.  A teacher in  first grade confided in me that she was leaving after three years.  She also shared with me that she has cancer.   I told her I would be praying.  I have seen her the last three days after not seeing her at all most of the year.  I don't think that was by chance. Then yesterday the assistant principal came in and observed me and the meeting.  It was essentially another disaster.  When she came in I had all the kids around me and we were drawing Earth Day pictures.  Then at the end of the day I interacted with the librarian while the others just sat back and talked.  People are seeing and saying stuff.  I am starting to feel the family of my co workers love.  I don't have to do anything.

Yesterday was awful but with the help of God I survived



It all started with my boss coming in.  I thought she was seeing my progress.  I was ready to lead meeting with the suggestions she gave me.  The co teacher decided to teach the same part of the day

Then we went to spring pictures.  I was used to them going on their own,  And no one helped me

I had my other comment and I tried to disagree with her.  She told me to be quiet and finish.  I did when I asked for help and the Lord told me about the fool and pigs.  

The next 28 days are going to be a challenge.  I thank God in the midst of the storm I am his child.

It was pure spiritual warfare.  I prayed and prayed

Things got a bit dicey when I started praying for their souls.
