Rediscovering the bread and butter

I was serious when I said these were what helped me through last year. Teaching is down and up, but I've been on this down for far too long now. As I sit here now @ 5:30a, I realize I've lost handle of my bread and butter. Even if this year presents tougher struggles than the last, I need to get back. It wasn't broke in the first place; why was I trying to fix it?
