An opportunity has presented itself

I received a phone call this afternoon from Andrew's best friend.  He is the superintendent at a school district about 30 minutes from here.  He had mentioned a couple of weeks ago that he is hiring three building subs for his district.  They would report every day and fill in where ever is needed.  He had mentioned it to me before we knew whether or not our district would be open.  Of course, since then our district has gone remote for the first semester.  Andrew's friend explained that he wasn't thrilled with the candidates, and knew I could do the job.  It would pay more than I make in our current district, and that would cover the cost of the gas, plus it would be guaranteed every day.  With Andrew working remotely, he will have a little bit of flexibility to deal with things here at the house, and he has plenty of sick days if needed to deal with medical things.  The nice thing is that when I am no longer needed at this job, I can come back and work with the kids right here in town.  It's really a win-win for both of us, and it solves problems for each other!  In fact, we'll be able to afford to do more things socially with them!  It's an exciting opportunity and I'm very grateful!
