potentially

Today is potentially the last day of my summer vacation. One week ago, I applied to the Gadsden Elementary School District, and on Tuesday I scheduled an interview for Wednesday. Due to some certification issues, I had to drive to Tucson and back on Thursday. Friday was the day I found out that I probably have the job, and TODAY is the day I'll know for sure. But, I don't know anything yet, so only time will tell.

If I am hired by the GESD, I'll receive a lot of perks, including:
an increase in pay
a job that I'm highly qualified for
a smaller campus
a 30-dollar-an-hour after school program

There are only a few downsides to the job, which are:
a 30 minute drive
Spanish speaking

3 Good Things

Yesterday, 3 good things happened to me! In case you haven't noticed, good things (and bad things) always come in threes.

First, I found out that Chris and I CAN start the adoption training classes this Saturday, despite the fact that Chris is going to miss at least four classes. Yea!

Then, I found out that one of my high school students, who's a senior, can be on the AWC Dance Team as long as she takes one AWC credit. That really made my day, because I had just had two dancers quit. Whew! What a relief, because I'm back to having 10 girls on the team.

Third, I got an interview at Cesar Chavez Elementary School, which went amazingly well by the way.

I'm on a roll:)

Things don't always go my way

But, things always seem to work out for me. I'm currently looking for a new job, because my former school found a "highly qualified" dance teacher to replace me with. So, that sucks! Anyway, I submitted my application for the Gadsen school district yesterday afternoon, and I'm hoping to hear back from them this week. It'll be more money, but in return I'll have to drive about 45 min. each way. Oh well! I can handle it, because that's what I did in Tucson. If this job doesn't pan out, I applied for an administrative assistant position, which is a glorified secretary, at NAU-Yuma. And, if both of those jobs bomb, I'm not sure what I'll do because being a housewife isn't an option.
