Up For Air

or procrastinating if you want to call it that.  I have been MIA lately and so many of my wonderful readers have dropped away.  I can’t blame them, since baby #2 entered the picture, I have had less and less time to think, let alone blog.  I miss it.  I miss all of you–even though over 60% of you are gone.  But, I won’t focus on that.  I didn’t start this blog with the aspirations that I would become widely read and I am lucky for the people I have met and who I now call friend. 

I am sitting at the local bread co. supposedly working on my literature review.  I need to finish it today so that I don’t need to do it on vacation.  We leave tomorrow morning…7:45am.  I can’t wait. 

Noah got into what was my first choice of schools and waitlisted for Bill’s and my mom’s first choice of schools.  I strongly believe  that everything happens for a reason and that he will be really happy at his new school.  And if for some reason he isn’t and we aren’t, we have the other school for next year.  I am happy and it is one less thing for me to worry about. 

Job hunting.  Can I just say that it frickin’ sucks.  I hate job hunting.  Absolutely hate it.  I went to the teacher job fair at my university on Friday.  It went well, other than the waiting in line for hours to get brief face time.  I have a few leads and people seemed impressed with me, so who knows.  I did score an on-site screening interview and did really well.  The lady who interviewed me was ecstatic that I had an MA in English–as those are really hard to come by as most folks choose to get the M.ed.  So, we will see.   Most districts on are spring break this week or next so it will probably be end of the month or April before I hear about more interviews.  UGH.

Okay, I am quickly running out of time away from home.  I. Need. To. Write. My. Paper.  I don’t want to do it.  I haven’t done one before and I am really uncomfortable with it thus far.  I totally understand how my students feel.
