Growing Pains

Hey team,

Long time, no chat (which some of you may prefer)

This year has been filled with lots of changes.

Lots of positives....

  • Andy and I got married October 20
  • We both LOVE our jobs
  • My parents bought a new house (AND THERE IS A TRAMPOLINE!!!)
  • Andy's parents are renovating their house and it looks amazing!
  • Andy began the baseball program at Flat Rock
  • Faith took over winter track and is the head women's coach for West Henderson
  • We finally got to go on our honeymoon!!
A few negatives...
  • We lived in a place too long that was gouging our rent --- don't worry, we found a new place
  • My Grandmother passed away right before our wedding
  • Andy's Grandmother passed away in May
  • Some unhealthy coping mechanisms - such as not checking my email for days
  • Other personal drama
And I let all of these positives and negatives affect me. I'm a runner - so I run to get through stress, Last week was the first time I tied up my sneakers since roughly November. I binge watched the show about Carrie Bradshaw. I became a hermit without even realizing.

But I am here now - as annoying as it is - to come back better than ever. No longer will I beg for attention or jump when people say jump. I have learned a lot about myself and even better ways to take care of myself.

I cannot wait to meet my new students in August. I wish it would come sooner.

Until then, Guten Nacht 

Faith
