Cautiously Optimistic

Another (2) interview(s) down! I am really hoping and praying that something comes up. I cannot bear the thought of being unemployed! I am not a very patient watier either! Anyway, the interviews I've had have gone well, so hopefully someone chooses me to join their faculty (soon!).
Just thought I would give a little update!
Keep the thoughts/prayers coming my way!

1 down...? to go

Ok, I survived my first interview! This was the first time I have interviewed for a job in an 'urban' school! I walked in and there were 7 people around a table with pages of questions in front of them! It was rather intimidating I must admit! But I had a good time and I think they liked me. I'm not to the point yet where I am ready to move the family down the mountain or commute an hour and a half to work each day, but I'm glad to know (or think) that I can 'run with the big dogs' (so to speak) and not get chewed up and spit out! :)
Anyway I have an interview for a local SPED job next Thursday, so there's still hope that I'll get another job here for next year. I was just a tiny bit impressed that out of all of the people who probably applied online that they even bothered to call me from the 'urban school'...
That's all for now, I'll check in and let y'all know how the next one goes! Keep on praying or sending positive thoughts or whatever it is you've been doing, because it's apparently working so far!!

On the hunt...(for a job)

Well, I have had a pretty productive weekend! I have applied in about 8 counties in my state and 3 out of state.
I actually got a call for an interview in one of the counties Friday...SOOOO...I kinda hope it doesn't come down to moving or commuting to be employed, but I have certainly done my part to find a job! Anyway, again, I'm asking for your thoughts/prayers for something positive to happen. I am open to whatever God has in store for me!
I'll keep ya posted!

totally putting this on my door (if I have a door) next year

And that's the way the cookie crumbles...

Well, I unexpectedly got a job in the middle of the year, and now I unexpectedly lost said job. :(
I was told this morning that the job I currently hold would be posted for next school year. This is not the end of the world, it's something that happens to new teachers. I don't really think it is a reflection on me or that I did a bad job. But, they hastily hired someone in the middle of the year because someone quit, and now they want to take their time and see who's out there that's qualified... I am sad because I got on at the school I really wanted to work at, and now I have to start over from square one. (Including moving my son to a new school.)
So, if you pray, please send a prayer up for me that I will be able to secure a teaching job for next school year and embark on a new adventure!
