Long Work Week

But a happy one......I was in a great first grade class, was a floater, and in a K class.....I am loving the variety! However, this school I'm in, which I love, has let go one teacher and a few aides. I will NEVER get a job there, but I feel so comfortable and welcomed. Even those students that know me give me hugs and hellos. The principal always says hello, but he has also told me in my last interview with him that I need to substitute elsewhere to get a job.....maybe next year.
Anyway, enjoying this wonderful spring day!

District's Retirees

Wow...what a difference a week makes! Heard that at least 33 teachers were retiring from my district alone...and more are jumping on the bandwagon every day! One dear friend told me today...bitter-sweet she said....she loves kids and being in the classroom. Not sure what her plans are for next year, but she took the plunge. One more small door open for me! Actually, I know the more experienced teachers will get the job, those that aren't tenured as of yet and have received their notices. But I can hope, can't I???

Tomorrow is once again the day I look forward to most....my nanny job w/ the twins. Tomorrow I may venture out with them to the library! Just gotta figure out how to get the car seats strapped in.......

Also, I've been assigned the worst 2nd gr. class in the other district I sub for....the day after my nanny job. I'll pray for an easy day!
