Another boring week!

Okay, so maybe not week, being it's only Tuesday!  I haven't had any calls for subbing so far :(  I got really upset last night just thinking about how hard I've worked and how little I have seen it pay off.  And as I'm thinking about all of this, I thought, I have a beyond supportive family, a wonderful fiance, and for right now, enough money.  I guess I just need little reminders throughout my day to remind me even though it doesn't seem to be working right now, maybe I'm being tested.  God knows how strong I am, and he wouldn't put me through anything he knows I couldn't do. 

"When you come to the edge of all the light you have known and are about to step out into the darkness, faith is knowing one of two things will happen...There will be something to stand on or you will be taught how to fly."

Being home is usually a good thing...

So, don't get me wrong- I think the choices I have made will help me to better my chances at getting a teaching position somewhere- but sometimes I think it was a DUMB idea! 

I don't think there is a worse feeling than working your butt off for 4 years, getting good grades, and graduating with a bachelors, than sitting at home on your couch, waiting for the phone to ring!  Everyday when I wake up to my alarm clock, rather than some spastic secretary's voice looking for a substitute,  I realize that's just another day of sitting at home, trying to find things to fill the time. 

I just have to keep telling myself my time will come.  I will get my blessing, and until then, I guess I just have to ride this one out.

My first post...

So, I just wanted to start this blog and hopefully continue writing in it as a teacher.  I thought it would be neat to see how my life has changed.
