september

how can it be September already? where did the summer go? don't get me wrong i love fall weather the only problem is it is followed by winter.

well, any hoo. there is a lot going on with the career front. I have decided that i can't do the job i have anymore mostly i can't put up with other peoples crap, low pay, and poopy diapers. I have been burnt out for a while but up until recently i liked the people ( most of them have left ). A few things have happened at work over the summer that have changed me or at least the way i feel about the childcare field. so i have been thinking and looking and i decided that while i want to leave the childcare field i do still want to work in education. I have sent out 4 resumes and i have four more to send out. I am mostly applying to different public schools not for teacher positions for support staff (instructional aid, the inclusion program.......) i also sent a resume to the children's museum, and two after school programs.

I realize that the school year has already started and that most schools will already be fully staffed, but, i found that some are still looking and a few others have anticipated vacancies that they will need to fill part way through the school year. so now i just have to wait and see what happens ( of course i will keep looking ) and do some follow up.
