After 4 months of being a housewife...

I finally have a job!! Woo hoo!! I am the first pick substitute for an elementary school St. John's out here in Lake Charles, and the principal wants me to start after school tutoring for her very soon. I really love this elementary school, and the principal is AMAZING!!! I was offered a long term sub position, but that's not until January because a teacher is going on maternity leave. I finally feel like I am getting back to a normal life, and although it's not the full time teaching job I want, it's a start in the right direction. It's been so hard to find something out here because I don't know anyone, and you know what they say it's not always what you know it's who you know. I now have a place to be Monday thru Friday and I love it!! I really can see myself teaching there for years and years. Then Steven and I went driving through the neighborhoods around the school, and it just felt like home to me. Our lease is up in April so hopefully we'll be able to do move out there then.

The only down side to this is I'm not getting to see my hubby as much as I'm used to. Since he works nights I am asleep before he gets home, I leave before he wakes up, and I only get to see him for about 15-30 minutes in the time when I get home to the time he leaves :(. We are going to have to get used to this, but right now it's really not that much fun. So I haven't been writing in a while because I have been a little busy. Learning to adjust to my life, again. This time I feel like I have much more of a place out here, and I'm starting to make friends. I also joined Steven's parent's gym yesterday so I can get my butt back in shape. My butt has kind of gotten out of shape in these last few months so I'm ready to do something about it now!! It would have made so much sense for me to be working out this whole time instead of being a lazy bum, but it didn't happen that way. :( I hope everyone is doing well!!!
