scheduled last day of work

Well, it is now official. I'm not going to be working up until the end of the year. I talked with my department chair and my principal and let them know about the situation. They were both really nice and understanding which made things so much easier. So it looks like my last day will be May 23rd, and then I won't go back after Memorial Day. That will give me time to do all the speaking exams with my students so that a sub doesn't have to worry about doing them. The kids will have a sub for the last 3 weeks of school, but luckily there is a certified Spanish sub who is available to take over for me, so I don't have to worry about leaving them with someone who doesn't even know the language. I feel like I am making the right decision, every day it gets harder and harder to work all day long. By the time I come home I am so exhausted and uncomfortable that I pretty much just lay on the couch all day long. I think I will feel so much better once I don't have to work all day.
