As I worked my way through this module, I found myself saying that one of the stressors in my life is the lack of time to do everything I want to do. I work a full-time job and serve as an adjunct at two online schools (teaching one class at each at a time). I feel that I need to continue doing this in order to have the lifestyle that I have/desire. I really don't want to change this. On the other hand. I love teaching and want to teach full-time. At my current full-time job, I am waiting for a full-time professor to retire any day now) and take his job. I would then leave my current full-time job. Now that we have all that background, I want to address my real issue. I love being involved with the students and I also teach a one-hour course in our first-year experience. In this capacity I get to advise and work with new freshmen. While this is not in any way financially rewarding, it is personally rewarding. In other words, I don't want to give it up. In the Fall of 2011, I have been asked to teach a masters' level class in our Education department. Again this will not be as financially rewarding as my online courses, but it could be intrumental in my future teaching at this institution. On the side I keep statistics for our university men and women's basketball teams. While it does not pay at all, I love doing this. What it all comes down to is that the two areas that I see that I can eliminate and they would give me more time are the First-Year Experience and the basketball stats job. When I evaluate these two "jobs" using the yes/no criteria of the effect they would have, they really affect no one but me! BUT I want to keep those!!!! Do any of the rest of you find that you have these type of stressors that you just don't want to give up????? What do you do? I guess I am using you as "my gradmother in Florida"!!!! Dolores Kiesler
