A Gloomy Day

Eeyore is an interesting character -- with so many wonderful (and some very hyper) friends around him...he always seems to be a bit gloomy -- I can identify with Eeyore -- escpecially yesterday. This path I am travelling is more difficult than I had anticipated. Although I am at home with my family (well, as close to home as I could get when I needed a full time job) there are days when I really wish I was still in Deline. I miss the people, my classroom, and I can still picture the community vividly in my head. A 2 1/2 hour conversation on the phone with a friend helped eased the gloominess but I couldn't shake it yesterday. Although I can rationalize with myself about how it is a change and change takes time and I've done changes like this before and they certainly weren't easy at the time... it's still gloomy....but today is a new day... and I like the Eeyore who appreciates the things around him much better than the Eeyore above... enjoy today ...Carpe Diem....whatever you say to get you through....everyone goes through it, I just like to process it verbally (or via my online journal apparently -- hmmmm...) Like my mommy always says: "This too shall pass" Yuppers...anyways, I gotta get back to that whole teaching thing I'm supposed to be doing!
