Yes, I'm sure a good coach could do more for me than cheer me on, but right now I'm not getting even basic encouragement.

I'm getting lots right, but I'm tired of being the only one who understands what goes into that.

I avoid contact as much as possible, b/c it feels like with any "successful" interpersonal contact come expectations and new duties. There are plenty of people I could call, but ...

RAh, rah sis boom bah all for Clarity stand up and holler.

Glad you are here. You can make it after all, just ask Mary and Rhoda. I hope a little humor helps.

My last two years were extremely stressful-I teach and have this summer off-I have been spending a lot of time here and everybody has been so encouraging and supportive. They understand what it is like. When school starts, my forum time will decline but right now it is just what I need.

Share some more about your situation if you are comfortable doing so.

And I'm not even sure which part of the forum to use for figuring out what kind of coaching/assisting I need.

I'll PM you - hope that's not an overstep.
