Soapbox about LGBT
At my daughters birthday party, (one turning 15 and the other turning 16) somehow the LGBT got brought up… Now, the subject of LGBT is a major soap box for me.
First of all, let me remind you that I am Bisexual. I have been Bisexual since I was 14 years old. Therefore, if what I am about to says offends you, know that you probably offend me as well, but guess what, life goes on, so get over it.
I told my daughter’s friend that anything that comes after the T is just a bunch of people who need to feel special and unique and who just want to label themselves for…. I don’t know…. Validation, to jump on the band
New Beginnings:
It's a bit sooner then I expected, but I am now the Lead Teacher of the two-year-old room. It's not like I haven't been a Lead Teacher before, but to be honest, I never saw myself getting back into this position again. The last Lead Teaching position that I had made me so burned out that I never wanted to work in Childcare again. After half a year of searching for a career in a different field, however, I discovered that no one would even look at my other skills because my past ten years experience before that was all in Childcare. This was pre-CoVid. I eventually took a position as an Assistant Teacher figuring that I could work in Childcare with minimum responsibilities. Well, that was two-years ago. I work for a good company and get along with my co-workers, now. A few weeks ago the plan was that I would get my own room as a Lead Teacher starting in the middle of July. That gave me a few weeks to adjust to the position at least. Plans changed though, seemingly over night

Making Time: EDIT
You know, I used to make time to do the things that I wanted to do by sacrificing a little sleep. It used to be that I could function off of 4 hours of sleep. I would stay up until 3:00 in the morning and wake up at 7:00 for work. Anymore, I barely get 6 hours of sleep and have a hard time waking up before 4:30 in the morning for work. I have to fight and pull teeth with my middle child to help me clean up after dinner so I can get in the shower and get to bed. I’d have to get to bed by 9:00 every night to get 7 hours of sleep, but that is mostly impossible, unless I really don’t feel well and I just say F-it. I do want to start writing again! This past weekend while doing cardio at the Y, A song that came on my playlist gave me an idea for a Yun & Kyoshi fanfic. I am rereading Rise of Kyoshi to do my research so I can get the story as close as possible to the original. Might take me a couple of weeks. I also still want to write that AU redemption arc for Yun. Might take

You're right even strong people have a breaking point. And actually is is very healthy to break down because keeping things inside us harm us more than anything. Just quit trying to keep it in...and if you feel like crying do it because you'll feel so much lighter afterwards. It is just not written anywhere that some people have to stay strong always and must never break... we're all human. As humans we have feelings and attachments and thus breaking down, being weak, being strong is all a part of being human...that's how we are complete.
So stay strong but if you need to break down then do it because emotionally and physically it is healthy for you.
