5 more days...

In five days, I will be sooooo off for the summer, and still bringing in a paycheck.... man, I lucked out! I am looking forward to staying up late and watching 80's movies. I'm ready to sleep until noon, grab a bite to eat and head to the pool with Syd. I'm ready for mid-day naps. I'm ready to fly by the seat of my pants and not worry about a schedule. I'm looking forward to saying "yes" more. I can't wait to go camping again with my little family!! I'm just ready to sit back and exhale!

Feels Like Wasted Time

I saw it on the wall in the teacher's lounge.... an opening at the school I want to work at with the kids I want to work with. Not one, but 2 positions open. German Speaker preferred but not required! YEA! So I turn in my resume, apply online and talk to my current principal/boss about why I was applying. I spoke to the other campus' prinicipal several times over the last month, and today was the big day. The interview went great; had everyone laughing and smiling, I knew I was on top of my game... then I get the old, "Thanks but no thanks"... actually the direct quote was, "I'm really wanting a German speaker, but thanks for coming over to talk to us anyway."

You know what? I'm not that upset about it... I LOVE MY JOB!! I work for an amazing campus with an amazing staff. My co-teacher and I became fast friends and I adore her! I'm happy to go to work everyday. I'm blessed to work a schedule that allows me to be home with Sydney. I thank God for all that he has blessed me with, and although I had been praying to work at the other campus, I know He's keeping me where I'm at because that's where I belong. I've got it good!

Editted on Sunday, May 17th: So I get a call from the other campus and I got the job.... I turned it down. Since the interview I had really thought alot about it and I know that I am where I'm needed most. It feels really great to be wanted, but it makes it all worthwhile knowing that I'm needed!
