And the door reopens...

I found out last week that I am un-fired...My principal told me that I was no longer terminated. Supposedly, HR is saying that it was a mistake. They never said, "Sorry for making your life hell for the last two weeks." It was a simple, "We want to let you know that you have a contract for next year." And then, the next part, "But, we don't have a position to place you in yet." So, I still have no idea what I will be doing next year. People keep saying that I should be happy to have a job, but if it's a job that makes me miserable, I would rather have no job at all. I am trying not to say that to many people because it makes me sound like a whiner, but I think I would have rather been fired and taken unemployment than have to do a job that I don't like. I guess the fact of the matter is I love working with kids. The job that I have now was not my thing, but I did it for a year and I survived. Maybe even if it's a job that I don't think that I would like, I would end up enjoying it. The fact is that I am a teacher, no matter what I am teaching, it is what I do, and I will do it to the best of my ability with a smile on my face. :)

What a roller coaster of a week! I know everything will work out, it always does, I just hope it's better than you imagined. Can't wait to see you in a couple of weeks!
