Survival Mode Year

 I have had this blog for somewhere to write and think.  I started this blog not with the intention to write and share with people.  I spent the whole year stressed.  Those who know me know that I have worked my past 8 years for a school.  So my years are worked off of the school calendar.  This past school year has been terrible.  Personal and Professional.  The crazy thing is I received a lot of praise because students’ attendance went up.  I recently bought a house at the beginning of the school year.  My son who has special needs started working at the same school I worked at.  That was a disaster and helped stress me out.  My brother and his children were struggling this year due to personal problems.  Financially struggling since buying a house and a thought of my son not being able to keep his job.  Side hustles not making sense.  Now I am working.  Fundraising grants and donations not working for us.  Also my son has special needs.  I know I mentioned that already but there is so much to my son who needs so much and there isn’t any information.  I feel like I need to vent.  Life is crazy.  Mom said that I should start writing like a journal.  So here we go… I guess I am going to have to play all the cards to survive.  Yes…according to ChatGPT, I am in survival mode.  I guess that explains why I can’t sleep.  I feel like I still need to ask the same question. If she can do it, why can’t I?
