Dear polar vortex,

I can't take this anymore!

There are times when I enjoy being in my house and doing nothing for a day or two.  It can be an absolute joy.  And then there's the polar vortex when I am forced to stay inside the house for two days.  This is our fifth day of cancelled school in the month of January.  I have never wanted to be in school more. 

I can't write as much about what's going on in my life these days because so much of my life revolves around 32 seniors in high school that I can't write about publicly.  It's not my place to write about them and their stories without their permission, but know that they consume most of my waking hours.  They are amazing and frustrating and they are a lot of work.  In five months, my two years of service will be over and I will have to return again to making big decisions and transitions. 

But first I need to get out of my house.  


love,
hannah
