For the kids

I know, it's been a while from my last post. Truth is not much has happened since then. Only really remarkable thing was that I've been offered several tutoring positions. I had to laugh for a good long time about this. As it turns out my degree in "English" coupled with my 6 months of subbing experience seems to make multiple people want me to tutor their kids for the writing and verbal sections of the SAT. I laugh, and rightly so, since I studied heroes, folk art, king arthur, and the like rather than actual English. But I set my own hours, wages, and pace so I'll give it a shot. Never would I have ever foreseen myself tutoring. But then again, it will pay something.

Speaking of paying something, I am hesitant to bring this up, but in an attempt to remain honest with you, I should. My church released a financial statement, they aren't doing so well. So I wrote a letter to them giving them permission to cut or cancel my salary. This was two weeks ago. Currently they are the only place I'm being paid from (in the summer I don't sub) so this will hurt. Also related to money, I got an email from one of the various jobs I applied for, they said that they liked my resume but have decided to move forward with another candidate... That just seems to be the way things have been going lately... Well, unrelated except on the thread of failure by being second place, I am still moving forward with the girl and keeping my fingers crossed rightfully so.

Gd'day chaps, catch you on the flip-side.
