Interview Today

I had an interview today with Uvalde CISD. I met with all but one of the directors. I have to go back tomorrow to interview with the principal(s) and maybe the superintendent. I was concerned with the drive, even though one of my sisters told me it was an easy one. I worried for nothing. The drive is filled with beautiful, history filled towns and lots of places to pull over should I need to stretch my legs for a minute or two. But the last 30 minutes of the drive there is filled with dirt and dust. =) Then you reach Uvalde and it's AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! I'll try to remember to update this post for results.

Darn

I lost my job back in March. The district told me that they wouldn't be needing me for this coming school year. I have been applying and sending resumes since then. I've had about 5 interviews. And yet, I still don't have a single job offer. I am getting depressed and feeling a failure. My family has been supportive of me and my situation, but for how much longer? What makes the situation even more hopeless is that I have a house payment, car payment, and school loans to pay, not to mention the other bills that I've accumulated since entering college. It's hard enough staying afloat on a teacher's salary, but GEEZ!!!! And NO, I'm not just applying for teaching positions. I'm applying for anything that pays a decent salary, even if it means working 2 jobs, which I've done for the last 2 years anyway. I hope this all ends soon. I will try to keep my progress posted.
