Another "prayer fest" is needed

---------

This time for me.... It doesn't hurt to ask for a little help from time to
time.
I know my prayer Thursday night was answered -- and I told my administrator
(with open door -- although I am sure no one else heard as I was not very
loud).....The last time I said this they labeled me "psychotic as hell"
(exact words). I know how it feels when a prayer is answered..... I have a
meeting this week with the administrators of my district --This time with
representation so I will not need to take verbal abuse. The OEA has
suggested they (OEA) hire a lawyer for me. I wish that it wasn't
necessary -- I am not vindictive -- I have done nothing wrong --There is
nothing wrong with me. I have no ill feelings towards my district -- I love
my students -- love what I do --love my job -- and even love my pay/my
benefits (how many of you can say that out there?)

I will not tell more --- just wish me well (or pray) and "good luck". It
helps knowing that I have hundreds of folks out there who DO know me (even
though we have never met) and DO respect me. I am just tired of my life
being some kind of "game" for other people.
Folks, I am not paranoid..... Paranoid is when there are no threats -- only
perceived. I have received real threats -- Unfortunately, it is my word
against theirs (and who will be believed?).

Love to all of my brothers and sisters out there -- Group hug (smile)---
Now --back to housework (great fun),
