Show me the money!

Well, I submitted two applications today. Waiting patiently is not something I do well. I'm trying to find some comfort in God's timing and all of that. I applied in Hesperia and Colton. The only good thing about possibly working off the mountain is that those schools pay more than Rim does. Go figure. No jobs up here. As a matter of fact, there seem to be many teachers that have no idea where they are going to end up next year. That's the part of this process that I fear the most. After 17 years of working non-stop, I'm not handling the "no job" thing very well. I'm getting some home projects done but that's about it these days. I do a ton of sitting and moping so I need to find a job and pronto.

Not much more to report. Paul Bunyan is finishing his sophomore year and driving around the mountain. It's hard to believe that he is looking at colleges and talking about where he will live after graduation...ugh! Some days I can't imagine having an empty house and some days I am ready to pack for him. Oh how I love teenagers.

On a side note - Tyler Florence is hot!

Hey girlie! Good luck to you, I know you'll end up employed. I also submitted an application to Hesperia, and I have an interview in a week. I'm excited, but OH-SO-NERVOUS! I was told a month or so ago that there was no way I'd get into Rim this year, because of the declining numbers and being low man on the totem pole. I know of at least five teachers who were on a temporary contract this school year, and they were all let go. It's ok, give it two to three years and it's going to be wide open up here. Also, Hesperia and Colton both are hiring like mad. Keep us posted!
