~:[CH15 - Day 152]:~ Closing Out the Year

It sounds a little weird to most as I say I am closing out the year, as in reality, it's June 1st. Of course, for most educators, this time of year is the time where we wrap up our school year and head out on our break. Every year, there is a bittersweet end to the year as I am excited for the adventured ahead, but also have to say goodbye to another group of students. I quickly cleaned up my room, turned in my keys, then headed home to clean up my room. I was way behind. I took on the task of reorganizing under my desk and to give you an idea of how it is down there, I had to do it with a mask. Even then, I am still suffering. Regardless, I felt good as I wired everything together and got to sorting through everything. By night's end, I wrapped up cleaning my office and everything was in order (well as good as it would be with the time I had). I was lucky to get an invite to dinner, my last before I headed out. We enjoyed a delicious meal as we chatted. I couldn't stay too long, but it was nice to get out for a bit as I struggled with the tall task of getting everything in order. When getting home, I went down my to-do list and it seemed like it might be insurmountable before I left, therefore, I got ready with my plan B. While I struggled a bit with closing out the year and getting everything taken care of, I was happy that for the most part, everything was mostly in line. With only one day left until departure, I can't say with confidence that I am ready, but the reality of life is, are we every really ready? Congratulations to all those who wrapped up today!
