5:50am run. 70 degrees.

The wind felt great that early. But as my run got longer the sun came out and made it blah. My miles got slower. But still felt great doing them.

 

In other news--my interview went well. One of my friends was in on the interview and told her hubby who told my SO that I impressed the principal and that they thought I was a candidate. I just wish I knew which position. Neither is a teaching job full on. ONe is for a teaching assistant and the other is a Reading interventionist. Money wise I hope I get the reading job. Either job I could be happy with. Both are only for the school year. But frankly, I get paid more being a waitress than I would as an assistant. How sad is that? Oh and these jobs I would work 30 hours a week andI work less than that as a waitress...

Well my truck needs washing before it gets too hot.

Glad the interviews went well! I hope you get the job you want! I got hired to teach a math intervention program for next year and I will make an entire whopping $10 an hour!!!

Great run, it definitely gets harder as it gets hotter, but it is also hard to get up at the crack of dawn!

Hope you get the job that you want! I'll say a prayer.

Maybe this job won't require a lot of outside prep work and you can keep your job as a waitress. That way you get your foot in the door in the district but can still make a living.

Tracy thank you, I need them!

Kelli--really? The assistant job is maybe 9. I really thought it would be ate least 13...I mean we are shaping the children of the world! LOL

When I interviewed for the job I did so because they were looking for a certified teacher and I was thinking, "Hey, maybe they will pay me better!!" I was shocked to hear it was only $10, but then remembered I was the only certified teacher who wanted to do it and that was probably why. That is exactly what they pay the aides who make copies and do recess duty...I thought I was worth more than that!!! BUT I wanted to work, it is only 2.5 hours a day M-TH and that was perfect for me. I miss teaching!!!

Kelli-they were looking for a certified teacher and still paid that low? Wow.

I haven't gotten any calls from any where else...this stinks!
