What a difference a year makes

This time last year I was working eighteen hour days, six days a week surrounded by kids and piles of work. This summer, I'm work regular eight hour days, five days a week in an environment that is pretty chill. While I enjoyed aspects of my old job overall I feel happier now than I did last year. This is a good thing.

Also, I'm in the city and not in the middle of nowhere. That always helps my mood.
