Whenever I have had a subbing day this year it has almost always been a result of getting up early and hitting the web. Last night I was able to secure a job in 6th grade a little after 10 which didn’t have a start time until almost 8:30, meaning I could sleep in, at […]

Last night’s youth group was… interesting, to say the least. It was the last session before a 2-week holiday break, and the kids were as hyper as they could be! We had decided to throw the kids in my husband’s group and my group a pizza party, but last week, my husband had another teacher’s

It has been a few weeks now with nary a post from me. You’d think in all that time I would actually have something to say, but sad to say I don’t. Not much at least. This new job so far is keeping me a little poorer than subbing alone. Finding half-days for subbing to
Seeing that today is the one month anniversary of my last blog post about my life, that is a valid question. The filler is interesting, but what about my two jobs, one of which was once the emphasis of this blog? This week was actually a milestone for my new job. For the first time

My 10 month old’s physical appearance is about to change dramatically. Well, first, let me start here – he’s been suffering from lethargy, crabbiness, diarrhea, and diaper rash lately. You seasoned parents out there know what I’m talking about – teething! Sure enough, the other day when we were playing and he was upside-down, I
I can’t stay mad at all y’all (that’s how a Southerner says it, right?) so here’s some sub news. Monday and Tuesday I was in near-city district again, and will be back there again tomorrow. 3rd grade was the name of the game Monday, and one of the first things I noticed was the teacher’s
1.0 being the avian flu a few years ago which barely got out of the starting gate as far as pandemic staus is concerned. Yes, I know there have been really nasty flu epidemics/pandemics in the past, but I am specifically referring to modern variations in my numbering. Anyway, tonight I got a call on

Monday: Industrial technology in hometown district. In near-city district, only 7th and 8th grade take this class- I think this year the teacher at one of these schools only teaches for four periods. What does he do with the rest of the day? In hometown district all three middle-school grades take this class. The other
