All summer one thing of the other came along that stopped us from going any place. It was the weather, moving my mother-in-law to a place near us, her illness and need for help. I repeatedly sent in applications to different schools and the middle of last week, I got a call to report to the administration building in Topeka as there was a job for me at Chase Middle School. I had to go in Friday to do paperwork. I missed the new person orientation as they called me late. I really don’t know anything about the school except that we drove by it Saturday night to see where it might be.
I am thankful for all the people who prayed for me during this time. I feel anxious about this job though. It has come so suddenly. I don’t know how many students I will have, if I will have my own room or whether I will be team teaching somewhere. Then there is the paperwork which I imagine will be different and so I will have to learn that. I wish it was closer to home but it is closer than what the co-op had offered me. I guess it is new person jitters. I have to report starting Wednesday and the kids come next week. Where did the summer go?

CONGRATULATIONS!!! A new job! How exciting! Now don’t fret…..I know you’ll do well. It really IS just the jitters.
After not doing much all summer because of the heat, I’m packing up for 4 days of trail riding at Lake Perry. So excited, I can’t rest. Other than trimming hooves, I haven’t spent much time with the horses because it’s been too hot.
Wishing you good luck with the start of school and congratulations again on the new job.
