I have no school tomorrow! To say I am excited about the prospect of sleeping in is an understatement. I have just been completely wiped out. It isn't that my life has been all that busy, it's just that I hate getting up so early. I can generally make sure I am in bed in plenty of time to get seven hours, and often even more. It's just that I don't sleep well during the night, so it's not "good sleep". I came home this afternoon, made myself a nice hot caramel latte (it is raining and the temps are falling) and the proceeded to fall asleep as soon as I drank it. I still feel like I could sleep some more, but I'm grateful for a little bit of relaxation this afternoon.
I've spent the last two work days not being in a classroom, but being in the high school office. I hadn't been there in nearly a month, so I didn't mind. Especially since I didn't bother to work on the filing. I got to do general office duties. It made me realize that I really, really want this secretary job. However, the posting has been removed and I haven't had a call for an interview. I still know I'm a strong candidate, but again, I just haven't had a good feeling about this since it posted last week. Because school starts Tuesday, they will need to act fairly quickly. If I don't get a phone call tomorrow, I feel it will be a strong indication I'm not getting an interview, and not getting hired.
The grief process for that is beginning again. I'm also grieving, somewhat, that I won't get to be at our school this year. I've realized I no longer love subbing. Every time the phone rings, my heart skips a beat in hopes it is a principal calling for an interview. Life goes on though.
I was also saddened this week by the passing of Joe Morgan. He is the first of the Great Eight from the Big Red Machine to pass away. As my sister said, it is sad and humbling to realize our idols aren't immortal.
Life is rolling right along!
