Finally Some Good News
« on: December 28, 2007, 09:09:13 PM »
In another thread I revealed that I was considering a career change and had decided to look into substitute teaching. Well today I got my temporary certificate. I will be able to start when the schools re-open after the Holidays. Next on the agenda - find a full time job.

WTG, bro.  It's nice to see good happening for you.
If sing, sang, and sung, sink, sank, and sunk, and drink, drank, and drunk, how is it that it isn't bring, brang, and brung, think, thank and thunk, and ding, dang, and dung?

Don't even get me started about bad, badder and baddest.  Run, ran AND run...again?  C'mon!

Depending on the age group of these children that you will now be molding... are you going to slowly induce TTG's to the kids' homework!?   ;D

Got an offer today to be a full-time Teacher Aide/Substitute.  ;D The School Board has the final say but I have been told to report daily until they meete. Barring some unforeseen difficulty, I am gainfully employed once again.  ;D Now to safe up enough to make Talamania and Origins - wonder if I can collect unemployment over the summer when school is not in session?  ??? Dare I dream?  :o  ;D
