and I teach English too!

Very exciting news / development ... I am going to be filling a long-term sub position in an English / Speech / Drama class starting next week until probably the end of the year. I'm really tickled about it, and feeling a bit overwhelmed too. I met the teacher yesterday and will be sitting in on his classes to "shadow" him on Monday. Tuesday is my first day officially teaching! Wahoo!

This will be a great test to see if I really do want to go back to school this summer to take English classes to finish that certificate. (I'm a little better than half way to having it. It would really help me to be more marketable if I'm certified in both.)

I'll post again on this once the ball is rolling!

**things are going well in the weight loss arena ... lost another 1.2 pounds this week--and that's with Easter dinner in there!! :)

Hi there, Jen!
I'm sorry I haven't read your blog for awhile. It was fun catching up on all your stories (not that I don't talk to you and hear them anyway). I'm really happy for you for your newfound Presidency and for the great job opportunity. I'm very proud of how much you have your life's act together. You are awesome! I know you will be very busy with all of this, but it will only make you a better person in the long run to be able to handle so much on your plate. Think of how much relaxing fun your summer will be. It will seem so minor of a job for us if you would be able to plan the grocery list for our family vacation when everyone tells you what they intend to cook. :) You are such a good organizer and we envy you and want to be like you someday. I love you!
