My New Job!!!

Yes, you read that right, I got a long term sub position in the Chandler School District! This position is really an answer to my prayers to be able to bring in some extra income before we have our baby. I got a call on Monday, interview on Wednesday, and started Thursday! I am working full time in a K-2 MIMR (Mildly Mental Retardation) special education classroom until Christmas Break. There are ten students and four adults including me in the room (for those of you who are not familiar with special ed, believe or not but 4 adults to 10 children is not enough!) The other 3 women that I work with are so sweet, flexible, and awesome to work with!

I love this job, but it is extremely tiring, plus I am still teaching all of my piano students three nights a week! I have pulled 12 hour days plenty of times while going to school and working, but it is a little different when you are pregnant! Pregnant women are not meant to be on their feet for 8 hours in nice shoes and bend over to tables at knee height all day! I am getting used to it and putting my feet up at lunch.

I couldn't be happier about this job, if all goes well, they may have a position for me come January! I just wanted to share my happy news!
