not off to a great start this morning

1. Husband reported cat did not come in. We both went out at separate times to look for it. I did some energy medicine exercises to relieve stress and tension, I affirmed that I was filled with serenity and light. I took two melatonin. I barely slept. I did cry and fantasized leaving my family. I know it's only a cat, but I rarely let the cat out, repeatedly ask my spouse not to let the cats out, and he ignores me just as much. Although, that day I read to him that cats of a certain breed (of which my cat is one) should not be let out because they are much too trusting.
Cat ends up to have been in the house, just cleverly camouflaged. I have to forgive my spouse, but I will not forget this.

2. I burned breakfast because someone called me and I didn't give her boundaries ("now is not a good time to talk, I have breakfast going."). I have only myself to blame for that.

3. School staff survey show a calamitous slide in teacher confidence/approval of principal at my son's school. I must find work: I must afford private school and a replacement car. Math textbook series adoption sucks. The advanced learning opportunities math teacher my son loves is no longer affordable, so she is gone. My son reads at the third grade level but the school focuses, justifiably, on those who are slow or beginning readers. When you're at teacher in my city, it's a non-issue that a kid reads beyond his age. Assumption is the kid likes reading and can keep up.
Am considering unschooling, part-time job, volunteer. Anything to get out.
