Day 4,040 —10 Days Left—

 

We’re down to the final 10 days at work, which seems on the surface to be a good thing, but it means shifting my routine a lot and having to seriously think about my plans for next year. I will be glad to be done with my Master’s in School Counseling, but at the same time it means I have to make plans for the next thing, and right now I don’t know for sure how three different aspects of my degree program will work out.

          I still need to know about the class I need for the LPC that hasn’t been offered in the last two semesters. I need to know how I am going to get time with a different grade level while working full-time as a counselor, and I need to know how and when I am going to take the required test(s). I think I know everything I need to know right now to move forward, but it always makes me anxious to not know for sure.

My foot still hurt this morning and was slowing me down as I ran, but it felt better than yesterday, and I spent time stretching it out. I don’t know if I should try to leave it alone, or keep stretching it. It doesn’t seem like I am hurting anything, but the way I have changed my stride was bothering my knees. I was starting to think about how I have the 52-mile race on Saturday, and before long I will be leaving to drive there at 4 a.m., so I need to keep getting up early this week, if possible earlier than usual.
