I have been frantically getting Elisabeth ready for school. She starts on August 5th and we registered her this week and stocked her up on school supplies. We find out next week who her teacher is and she's very excited. Since I am still jobless, I'll be taking her and picking her up every day. We seriously have an 11 minute walk to and from the school, so I see us walking it a lot. And then it'll just be me and Julia....hm. I better start job hunting more.
Seriously, though, finding a job is not easy. First off, I don't know the area, and I don't want to have to drive over 20 minutes to get to my job. So, I've been trying to find things closer to us. Also, I'm being picky. I don't want to work at just any school with just any age. I'd like to work with 3-4 year olds at a school where I'm not surrounded by morons as co-workers. But, it's hard even going to fill out applications because I have the girls with me. I don't know. I'm very frustrated. I'd like to be working, I miss working, but it's just not falling into place for me right now. I've considered branching out and doing something besides teaching too. What? you ask. I have no idea.
So, until I find my dream job here, I continue to work as Mommy. My job includes such things as...
keeping Julia out of the refrigerator...
turning the tv on for the girls to stare at blankly...
being proud of my 6.5 year old as she loses, yet another, tooth (bottom right)...
feeding Julia watermelon and watching her make a disgusting mess...
and trying not to take for granted the fact that my fat little baby is quickly turning into a fat little toddler who won't always fit into our random square cubby in the living room.
