There is a verse that's giving me fits right now. I so wish it weren't there. You see, I've got 41 days left in my career and things are getting really stupid and stressful at my school. From no pencil sharpeners to Mexican walkouts to no toilet paper, the working conditions are abysmal.
And I have the sick days to use that would extricate me from this morass. It's a very painless process to inform the dean that I'm gonna be out. It can be done clinically and easily.
But with every fiber of my being screaming for a break, God whispers in my ear through Paul's pen:
"Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ." Eph. 6:5
So, you see, I can't. I'm serving Christ, not just DISD.

I can't imagine teaching where you teach, let alone 35 years of it. I consider myself lucky to be here.
My district is so much better and I can't wait to have kids and be outta here!
