In a funk...

I don't know what has gotten into me lately, but I am just in a funk these days. I miss school. How weird is that!? Who graduates from school and actually misses it? Oh, that's me! Heavenly Father is a smart man and he makes sure that things don't always work out how I would like them to so that I can learn something, so I am subbing and trying to stay positive. It will all be worth it the day that I get a job that I am totally excited for and can't wait to start. :) Plus, the paychecks will really be worth it. I just have this thirst for learning and for pushing myself, but it seems like I only do that educationally, so I think I just need to find some other ways to be happy and learn. Some ideas I have come up with are:
  • I have to take the PLT sometime within my first 3 years of teaching, so I could start studying for that and take it before I ever get a job so that I don't have to worry about that later.
  • Get First Aid & CPR certified. I have always wanted to do this, and it would be a beneficial skill to have in a classroom just in case.
  • Volunteer at Primary Children's. I love kids and I have a degree that deals with kids, and I have always wanted to volunteer at Primary Children's.
  • Learn to sew enough that I don't have to have my mom/grandma/sister holding my hand the whole way through a project. I don't need to be professional by any means, but some basic sewing skills would be nice!
  • Be more crafty. I love decorations in my house for the holidays and there are a few holidays that I really need some cute decorations for.

What things do you do to keep yourself from getting in a funk? Any ideas would be appreciated! :)
