A few weeks ago I accepted a job for this afternoon. It's in band, and let's face it, the kids all know me! I loved the fact that it meant I didn't have to be at school until 11. Most days this happens though, I am called in for the morning.
I'll be honest, the call came this morning and I said, "no." I had a plan for my morning and it didn't include being at the school. Nine times out of ten I will always go in, and I do hate to miss the opportunity for extra income. However, sometimes I just need to step back, and this morning was one of those times. Being able to do so is one of the greatest blessings of this job.
I still don't have to be at school for another three hours. I have enjoyed a cup of coffee, and I've sat here with the Christmas lights on and enjoyed a very quiet morning. It is truly a blessing.
