Day 1 of March

Is it Tuesday yet? Oops a little late, but to be honest, I have been a little busy. Why you might ask? Well I have a new job. Now before your jaw drops and you ask, "How many jobs does this lady need?", keep in mind I am trading in one job for another. Last week, I was approached by a former colleague about working privately with a "just under 2 year old". It is a dream job. Wait a minute, all of my jobs started off as dream jobs; and I can honestly say, all but one are still dream jobs. So after a lot (not really) of soul searching, I decided to hand in my resignation letter to the preschool (the no longer dream job) It was the best thing I could do for me. The sad part is I am going to miss about 34 odd little people who bring a smile to my face every Tuesday and Thursday morning. So according to my contract I have to give a months notice - so my last day is March 28th at the preschool. I am letting parents know discretely about my leaving. Back to the story, so Tuesday morning I hand in my resignation and Tuesday afternoon I am working one on one with my new "child." And already he and his two siblings have my heart. We are still working out my hours and it's great to be able to be so flexible (being part time and all.) On another note, I finished work with the soccer people as well. February 29th was the last class (for the season). I tried to hand in my key to the equipment, but Glenn told me to hang on to it, because he'll be calling. I am so lucky to be able to get paid to do jobs that I love so much. Now if I could just figure out how to get my foot in the door of the hospitals and cuddle babbies, I'd never come out of my "fog."
I spent most of today visiting different stores and trying to find a few items to work with J. (the new little boy) I was disappointed that Scholars Choice had no finger puppets. I guess Walmart will be on my list tomorrow. I did meet Robin for coffee and a quick Costco run. She went for a roast; I went (cause I have the card) She came out with her roast and a new outfit; I came out with an apple pie, sheppards pie and shrimp cocktail; Remember this is costco, and nothing is small there.
time to get working on some cards for my "loves" at the preschool.

  1. Yes that news is acceptable! I want to hear more about this dream job though. Are you doing therapy with him a few days a week or how will it work? Very exciting!
