Rollercoaster

I'm on a rollercoaster at the present moment and I want to get off. On Thursday, I got a phone call saying that the school board had finally opened the federal class reduction positions. There were 4 I could take so I ran off to drop resumes and actually got to speak to a principal. Now, we're playing the waiting game of the school board actually giving the official word that all certified teachers have been placed and practitioners can be hired. Monday is the absolute last day I will be on this ride. I either get off at student teaching at the elementary school I attended, or having my own classroom at one of two schools.

I've been doing a lot of praying and I have the entire Trinity Baptist older ladies Sunday School class praying for me and I definitely can feel it. I don't pray for things to go one way or the other anymore, I just pray to survive the weekend without a full blown panic attack. I've been doing a lot of sleeping in and I have to also mentally prepare myself for the fact that on Tuesday morning, I could have a class of K, 2nd or 3rd graders looking to me for guidance. Life is not a fairytale but either way I will survive and wherever I end up, will be the place for me.
