Man this extremely hard to write. I never ever thought in a million years that this

sorry for the wait but I got sidetracked by Christmas and after Christmas family trip.
Anyway, I have come to terms with a few things since the last time I posted and I would

This is my last year of teaching […]

and I got some pretty disressing news. it seems that the news report of the
