My week has been CRAZY!!

So, I got a call last Friday evening to interview for a job that I had applied for in Provo School District. It was only 10 hours a week, so I wasn't even sure if it would work for the ARL program because they said I needed to be at least half time. I told them that at the interview on Monday and left feeling like they wanted me for the job but we all weren't sure if it would work.

I went to JoAnn's after the interview to pick up the last bits of fabric for my Eeyore costume that I'm making for Halloween (Tigger for Mel if I can get them finished), and I got a phone call while I was there. It was the assistant superintendent from Provo who had been in my interview. He had just talked to James Schindler, the guy in charge of ARL and James said that the 10 hours would work because I worked full-time last year. So he offered me the job! I'll be teaching 5th and 6th graders at the Center for Accelerated Studies. They'll be learning Algebra and Geometry. I think I'll only have about 15 students, so it should be a very interesting experience. I'm excited.

So, because I got a job, I have to start taking classes, so all day Tuesday I spent talking to various people about getting signed up for school and taking the classes I need. If I work hard, I should be able to get my license by the end of next Summer and my Master's degree by the end of Spring 2011!! Wow! So in one day I went from having all the time in the world (hence the Halloween costumes), to having very little time at all. I managed to get signed up in time to attend my first class Tuesday night and I have another one tonight, then I meet my students on Monday and will probably start teaching next week too. Wow! I can't believe it. Everything happened so fast. When I told Mel that I had a class on Tuesday night he said, "Man. Things are moving as fast as when we were dating! ;)" Which is entirely true!

Well, time for breakfast so that will have to be it for a while.
