Happy Holidays?

I am SOOOOOOO glad that this is the last week of school for the students! I'm not sure who is more excited about the upcoming Christmas break--us or them--but I'll wager to say it's pretty close.

Today was the first day of exams and let me tell you--the natives were restless. Not to mention--there were a TON of kids sick. I had hall duty for about an hour and had to call for the nurse and the custodian to clean up. YUCK!

Thankfully, I had a dentist appointment this evening, so I was able to leave a little early to enjoy some time away. Although that means that tomorrow I have to stay late and help the teachers scan their exams on our crazy new scanning system. (At least I won't be bored.)

Well, the past week has been spent on getting my resume finalized to apply for a job that became available due to a Media Specialist retiring. I managed to fax my resume Friday afternoon and ended up with an appointment for yesterday morning! I have to say, I was really nervous, but was told later on that I interview really well. (Were they in the same interview I was?) In any case, I was told that it was between myself and another Media Specialist and that we would find out today. The only snafu in the system was that I could only do an energy transfer (closer to home) and my school secretary never changed my address (Grrrrrrr....) to the Tampa address, so I wasn't exactly eligible. I called personnel after I finished with the interview and supposedly they changed it, but it takes 24 hours to post. So, needless to say, I think it cost me this possible job--especially since I did not receive a phone call and the position is no longer posted. Oh well...I kept asking for God's will, not my own, so I guess there's something bigger and better waiting for me around the corner. (Now I just have to work up the nerve to go for it--whatever "IT" may be.) :)

In any case, I'm able to relax now and try to finish my Christmas shopping. Can you believe it's next week?!?! I'm not even sure who I still need to buy for because I'm in the middle of projects that I don't think are going to get finished. Oh well--it's the thought that counts--right?
