Closer to You

September 6, 2015

9:00PM

I've been getting better about dealing with everything and accepting it as life.


It's been about 2 weeks or so since I've had a rough day.


I had such a great weekend with Mike and Karolyn.


As soon as I got home, you were heavy on my heart so I decided to write to you since I can't call you.


Being around your family temporarily fills a void.


And when I leave, the hollow feeling inside returns.


I wanted to call you on my way home.


This would have been our time to talk, but I can't.


We really enjoyed ourselves.

We drove and met up Friday night in Charlotte.


Karolyn got theri first and I was last since I worked.


We went to this place called Fahrenheit.


It was real nice.


We had a few drinks and just talked.


On Saturday, we were supposed to go out, but we ended up falling asleep.


We grabbed breakfast today, before we hit the road.


I know you would have been proud of us for making the effort to meet even though life can get busy.


I finished the first week of my second year.


It went well.


I miss my old students.


I see them in the hallway all the time, but it's not the same.


I feel like an effective teacher.


There are different strategies I am using and I am moving a tad bit slower.

Sometimes, when we don't slow down, I feel like we forget to experience life and breathe.


Hopefully, I can continue to live life in the backseat in all aspects of my life.


I have been doing well.


I know you would be proud of me.


I can hear you saying "very good, sweetheart."

I am always thinking about you.


I love you!
