Struggling

I'm feeling lonely and can't seem to get myself motivated. I had a good sub day on Monday, but I just felt like I was in pieces Tuesday morning and I still feel that way. I don't know why I'm like this and I wish I could figure out how to just stop it and get on with life.

First Week

2012 is starting off pretty good. Worked most days packing, cleaning, moving, and unpacking at Dad's office. Was sad not to get any subbing days, but I'm so glad that my low season only lasted one day. Those have the potential to last weeks and I just can't seem to get anything done during them. I have some resolutions and goals and I hope to keep working towards them.

I do have a sub day tomorrow so the second week is off to a really great start (except for the part where kitty decided to make a mess all the way along the hall - it's cleaned up now). I don't know how else God is working, but I'm praying that I am content with His will.

Happy New Year

Well, the year has just turned over. What will 2012 hold? That is for God to know and I'll probably find out. I certainly couldn't have predicted how 2011 would end after the way it began.

I lost my Grandma. I started a new job, hated it, and quit in about ten months. Reevaluated what I want to do in life and went back to teaching, but also applied for my masters of education in teacher-librarianship. Reconnected with some friends; let others go. Paid off my interest-bearing loans and then spent too much. Found my art in quilting and also started looking into other crafting and sewing areas. Played more facebook games than ever and got sick of them - will be blocking a lot of them now. Got one of each class in World of Warcraft to 85, but the best is still just playing with my friends.

All in all it was a pretty good year. I most definitely feel better now than before. Here's to hoping the journey continues in the direction God guides.

Happy New Year to you all!

Dawn of New Era

Well I've just paid for my teacher-librarian application and found another person to ask to be my referee. I'm really applying for this and I'm really hoping I get in. I need a third referee and some more paperwork. Experience is the main thing I lack, but I sure hope my referees and statement of intent can make up for it. Please take some time and pray for this and for me over the next two months and then however long it takes to hear back.

Happy Birthday to ME!

Yay it's my birthday and I'm having an awesome supper with wonderful friends and I'm very excited.

Yesterday was my last day at the yucky job and it was good. I got a card and a lot of them told me to stop by and visit and update them when I get a full-time job and stuff. I look forward to being available to sub full-time - especially since a lot of my calls came on days committed to the other job. I've still only had the 2 subbing days, but it's so close to Christmas I didn't expect any more.
