New Job!

I finally got a job!! As you know I have been on the search for a teaching job since I moved to Colorado in January. After several opportunities and interviews I was still unsuccessful and had settled on working as a substitute teacher and volunteer in order to get my foot in the door and my name out there to hopefully have a better chance in an extremely competitive job market. On a whim (and because I already had my resume together), I applied for a job at a non-profit agency called Partners. And.......I GOT IT!! I am really excited about this job and start tomorrow (8/16) I will be the Case Manager and oversee the "partnering" of at risk youth with adult volunteers. I think it is a really great program and something that I believe strongly in so I am very excited that I have been given this opportunity and will be able to work with such a great outreach agency!

So even though this is a change in directions from the teaching path I was on I think it is a great opportunity for me to do something good and as my mom so wisely reminded me.....
