All Play and No Work

Makes Delani a happy girl! (to mutate a reference from The Shining)

Seriously, or srsly, I have been playing all weekend, and I'm in a great mood. I had a lovely dinner last night at the local restaurant with Son #1, and woke up refreshed and smiling.

Sigh. When everything's good like this, I feel like the hammer is going to drop just around the corner. My shrink asked me about my extended family last visit, which only means one thing: he wants to know about my support network when something bad happens to me. So now, I've just convinced myself that something bad is going to happen.

What happened to my good mood? Now i'm full of anxiety and worry...but I know it won't last.

School is going GREAT. I have a bunch of really nice and polite and inquisitive children this term. My smallerish study hall is even quiet and productive, unlike last term when i had the huge study hall from HELL. Class size DOES matter -- and I have the research and experience to prove it. But School Size is just as important, and I did a little research during my Master's Degree studies on school size. Smaller is better, unlike sex.

On the state of the world: economic downturns, mid-east wars and police brutality and rioting. WTF is going on? Armageddon? The end of the world in 2012 as predicted? Oh shit it's all too much for my little pea brain to handle. Think I'll go smoke a peace pipe and drink another cup of coffee. People need to just get along, it is so simple.

All I am saying, is give peace a chance.

OK. I'm happy again. In the midst of turmoil and trials, I have found my little corner of the sky where I can relax and be happy. I couldn't ask for more.
