Happy Saturday! I'm just attempting to hold my own little school world together, let alone get a blog post up! I went to the gym after school yesterday to struggle through an hour Zumba class (different instructor + I was exhausted), just to come home and find myself slowing losing all forms of energy and finally asleep on the sofa at 8:30. Woke up at 2am...to move to the bed....to sleep until 8:30am. SO. That's how my end of the school year is going!
On to some news...

Um, so I read this entire thing and thought "wow either I am a super low stress person, just really love my job, or most of these people just hate theirs".
I guess...data with a grain of salt? Do you agree? Disagree? Are you always stressed? Totally burnt out? Love your job like no other? WHAT ARE YOU FEELING?
