Sunshine in March

Wow, I can't believe I didn't blog at all in February! Well, actually I can believe it. I didn't make time to write and I didn't think I had anything to say that had already been said. I still feel that way, though I'm blabbering on as I type. But I do have some news! Whether it's good or bad, you decide. Or it will be decided for you.

3 things. 1, I've applied for 9 teaching jobs so far. One is a long term position from May until the end of the school year (a month and a half total), and the others are various teaching jobs around Vermont. I haven't heard, but tomorrow's Town Meeting Day here in Vermont, where school budgets are passed or voted down. That will decide whether they can hire certain people or not. I hate waiting, but that's my pursuit.

2, at the end of January or early February, I ordered my continuing ed course/master's course to keep my teaching license. I got it in the mail a few weeks ago and haven't done much with it. I haven't been motivated to start it and have started having regrets of even ordering it. Finish what you've started, is what I've been told by my parents and others many, many times. So I will. regretfully? maybe. Once I get going, I'm sure I'll write all those papers and do what I'm supposed to and get all into it. I can't help but feel that all this is in vain. Waiting so long to get my own classroom here in Vermont. Will it ever happen? I don't know. But I've already paid the $400+ so I might as well do something productive. Once I get my computer monitor back. (stupid story, I won't bother you with the details.)

And 3, we have 2 baby calves so far! Zorro and Zelda (I think that's her name). More to come!

A sunny Monday afternoon here in Orwell. And it's almost 5 o'clock and the sun is still up for a half an hour or so! whoo hoo! Daylight savings is this Sunday! Awesome! Baseball/softball season is here. (sorry snow fans, spring is here!)

proof that spring is coming!
