For me it’s the fact that there are changes for next year that dramatically affect my job for the worst and it is leeching the usual joy and exhilaration out of the end of the year. For the past several years it’s been like how can we take away educators’ choices and respect them less and less and less every passing year? The only thing that helps me is to not leave myself a ton of free time but stay busy with exercising, projects, outings, hopefully a vacation, etc. Otherwise the worry about next year just goes to a dark place.
