Easy Day!

Today is a staff development day which means students don't have school, but the staff still reports to work. Instead of having to be at school at 7:10 this morning, I was able to come in at 8! That hour seems like a world of difference in the morning, especially when it is still dark outside when I go to work. It starts my day out in such a postive light ~ would be better if the sun were shining, but I get it, darn hurricane!

I love staff development days. Besides the fact I can come into work later, I don't have to babysit the kids. I get so much work done and I am able to have adult conversations with my collegues. Only 2 more days. . . I think I can, I think I can. The weekends seem to not come fast enough sometimes!

new job?

I had the opportunity to visit CSM (College of Southern MD) last wednesday. I was pretty flattered when a few of my bosses from the Board of Ed asked me to attend. We were meeting with professors at the college whom taught the same courses so we could see how closely our curriculums aligned. The professor I met with apparently really liked me and asked if I would be interested in teaching online courses for the college. I was so excited because I do need a change, but I am not ready to pursue an administration job at this point. He asked me to send him my resume and we would go from there. I have never made a resume before. I was kind of nervous when I sat down to "brag" about myself. I found that it was quite easy to write about myself and my accomplishments. I am surprised just how involved I am with my job and how far I have come in just 5 short years. I am waiting to hear back from the professor, but believe me, I will let you all know! Keep your fingers crossed :)
