what's the opposite of jobless? dunno. but i got a job! i had new employee orientation this morning for leander isd, and tomorrow and wednesday i'm attending faculty meetings at my new school so the principal can introduce me to everyone. then i'll sit in on classes friday and start teaching monday! i'll have a science lab to teach 7th grade science and math out of. i went to "teacher heaven: not just for teachers" on saturday and found alllll kinds of fun things for science and math, including models of a frog and shark that show all their insides! $25 each! holy cow! by the way, i think the teacher heaven IS just for teachers, because evan was pretty bored (minus the time in the musical instrument section).
anyway, the vangsni are starting BSF tonight - looking forward to it. i've been wanting some structure and accountability for what the baptists call 'quiet time' :) <--- i can say that since i grew up baptist, right?? friends from our small group are leaders in BSF, so we may get to car pool with them - woohoo! hooray for weekly times of mandatory hang outs! for instance, we've been getting to see leighton (ev's cousin) and mandy every wednesday since they're in our small group now - love it love it.
all in all, life got pretty awesomer since we joined a small group with the stone (austinstone.org). everyone should do it!
jobfull.
