Decisions, decisions

There's a storm up north tonight called Abigail which is causing high waves and winds. Here we are just catching the edge of it; heavy rain and gusts of wind. However I think it's affecting my mood because I feel very restless. It has been a strange week of highs and lows. I went to the cinema with a group of pupils on Tuesday and had a great evening - we went to see Ferris Bueller's Day Off which I have never, ever seen even though it was made in 1986! I somehow thought that it would be rubbish but it was a lovely film and I thought that it had a strong message about making the most of life. Work has been overwhelmingly busy, but today I got some feedback which was incredibly, almost embarrassingly positive. And it made me wonder if the decision that I'm edging towards is the right one. Then this afternoon I was at the funeral of the father of a dear friend and as I listened to the tribute to his life I found it sad - but a good life well lived. Funerals always make me feel thoughtful, and then at the restaurant afterwards we were talking to an elderly couple who were full of life and told us that they have been married for 61 years, and were full of really interesting stories about their lives. I don't know what I'm trying to say - just that I feel a bit confused and not sure which way to go. I blame the weather for this turbulent mood!
