A definite decision.

  Well, I did it.  I’ve officially accepted the job at the middle school.  I just didn’t want to wait any longer for the high school and risk not having a job at all next year, or having to come back to this one.  I’m going to view this as a trial year.  I loved the [...]

Joy in the Midst

  Okay, I’m a bit stressed, but all I can do is laugh at it all. I’ve pretty much been offered the job at the middle school, but I’m not sure if I should take it. The school is great, and I love the principal and asst. principal, but it’s middle school. It would be quite [...]

Taking the Plunge

  Well, that time of year has arrived…the time I’ve been both anticipating and dreading.  Community college openings have been posted and the deadlines are quickly approaching.  I’ve started tweaking my resume, but I really have no clue what a strong resume should look like.  I feel like such a dunce when it comes to marketing [...]
