Both/And
More spring, days that watching my doggo enjoy the sun, lightens the darkness a bit. It’s a week of feeling lots of conflicting feelings. Another job I applied for didn’t offer me an interview. I am angry. It seems that I am just not related to the right people so that I am taken seriously. Two more applications went out. I wait. But, I am not hopeful. I love working with students. Seeing them light up when they make a connection and understand something new lights up my heart and my mind. But, finding a position that I see in time for me to give them all the needed paperwork and that would take a chance on me is proving illusive. I am exhausted as a substitute and am ready to be done. I would immediately walk away from it if another job would come along. So, I keep looking for other opportunities. But, I haven’t found anything that my current education and credentials would enable me to be considered for hiring. I am so frustrated, angry, financially strapped, stress...
