It's so frustrating knowing exactly what I want, but having little to no control over it. There are very few openings for teaching jobs in St. Louis right now, but I have been applying for every one I'm qualified for. I know it's still early, and I'm trying to stay positive, but it's really difficult when everything we've been planning on completely depends on my ability to find a job.
I feel totally disconnected from my friends and family right now. I feel like I've lost a part of myself. I live with my parents, and I still feel distant from them. My friends are so important to me, but I haven't seen or even talked to most of them in months.
I feel completely and utterly lost right now.

Northwest Indiana is hurting for teachers...trust me, I know! My fiance & I are both getting our licenses right now to teach at the high school we just got coaching jobs with. Not sure if you'd be interested in moving, but it's an option...and it's only like 35-40mins from Chicago (so not TOO terribly far from home for you).
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info, Kristin. Unfortunately, I'm trying desperately to move my life to St. Louis...if only they were having a teacher shortage! Good luck with your licenses, I hope you guys are doing well!
ReplyDeleteHang in there Nem. Something will turn up, I know it will. Plus we have Sunday breakfast plans. And let's face it, I NEED you. And this is all about me after all.
ReplyDeleteEmmi- I hope that today is brighter! Struggles only make us stronger... blah blah blah... But honestly...Snuggles make it better so snuggle with someone:)
ReplyDeleteI love you sooo much and we get to see each other very soon!
ReplyDeleteHang in there and I'm sure it will all feel so much better after the "Reunion of Legends".
