Updatey-ness
Sorry for the lack of bloggage. I have been sick for the past 5 days and prior to that, my tendonitis flared back up again and typing was a real pain. Literally. I haven't had much energy to write and quite honestly, unless you are interested in hearing about hacking coughs and mucous production, I haven't much to write about.
I interviewed for a new school on Sunday. For those of you keeping track, that would have been the second day of my illness. Nothing like interviewing with a hoarse, nasally voice, eh? Anyway, this school is a pilot project for our district; an all-year calendar program. Instead of two months off during summer, we would have just one and spread the rest of the holiday time throughout the year. Grant and I talked it over and decided that having the opportunity to travel during off-peak times would definitely compensate for not having quite as much summer holiday, so I went ahead and interviewed.
Me and 179 other people.
!!!!!!!
I think it went well enough. But the principal was limited to 20 minutes per interview and there's only so much you can get across in that amount of time. I would really like to get a job offer there, though, so keep your fingers crossed for me.
More when I have some energy. And a life.

ohhh, I've crossed my fingers for you. I agree that holidays throughout are best. The two months at summertime is great, but everyone and their dog get time then.
Plus my mom always plans too much for herself during that time and feels a bit here or there would be better.
Sorry about the cold, love. *hugs and warm tea*

Good luck on the job! I love traveling off-peak, so a good amount of non-Summer time off is a great perq.
And sorry to hear about the cold. Hope you feel better soon.

I would hire you on the spot! Maybe I should look into a career as a school principal...
My doctor told me that the next step was cortisone, but he wanted to give it time to heal on its own. Problem was: it got better and I took off the tensile bandage I was wearing to protect it. Yep, I re-injured myself. Ouch. So, I am wearing the stupid bandage again and it's getting better all the time. Better better beeeeeeeeetter!
Sorry. Had a Beatles moment there.
Got a result yet?
