JOB

I got a JOB! Yay!! I was practically hired on the spot. Well, maybe not but I was going to be hired if I didn't screw up the interview by not showing up. I am going to be a preschool teacher. I will have my OWN room. She is putting a lot of faith in me for a new teacher to have her own room. I believe I can do a fantastic job. I have always wanted to prep kids for kindergarten. My director has high hopes for the class and I believe I can send a well prepared class to kindergarten next year. I am so excited. I have so many ideas in my head of what I want the kids to learn. Like I said, I am so EXCITED!

I need a list of what I want to buy with my first paycheck.
-Get my tires rotated and balanced.
-Start a budget

Things on my budget for month
$ 50 Formula, food , diapers, and wipes
$ 60 Gas
$ 50 Insurance
$ 300 Rent and Housing
$ 50 Car fund (my car is old)
$ 100 Loan
10% Saving
5% for school
This will probably change... Just to give me some idea. Somewhere I will need money for gifts.

First Goal?

I have an interview!!! I have an interview at 10 on Thursday for a JOB. It is at a daycare, which I have done before. I have three years working for a corporate daycare. I think this one is privately owned but they have two. I don't know. I hop I can get $10 an hour or at least $9.50. I was making $9.23 at my last job. I will talk to the director about that. On the plus side is I would be working with pre-kindergarten! I love that age group. I want to teach them nursery rhymes, writing, and math. I want them to not be surprised when they hit kindergarten because they have see the material before.

Eian is being fussy this afternoon. He turned seven months old four days ago. He is sitting in my sling asleep. Precious boy.

Today is the day

Today is the day I start writing everything down. I am going through a transition in my life. Maybe talking about it will help.

I am getting a divorce. I have not been married not even a year. I got married when I was seven months pregnant. Not the greatest idea.

My relationship with my husband changed soon after my precious little boy was born. That little boy is my life and soul.

So here goes.

I need a plan.

First: Get a job!
I am currently living with my parents. Don't get me wrong I love my folks but coming back to live with my mom after living on my own - sucks. I am getting help with my son. What's the quote? "It takes a village to raise a child." I have a small amount of recruits. My sister lives near by as well.

Second: Save enough money to go back to school.
My current degree lacks certain specifics for a good paying job.
I need to research degree that I think I would like to do for the rest of my life.

Third: Figure out my personal life.
I love my husband. I miss him every day. I still talk to him. He has a plan. He is goal oriented. He has a two year plan in which our son and I moved back to AL. Some days I just want to go back home, other days I know I need to stay here to figure out my life.

Life is never easy for those who dream.
