Don't get to excited, still no adoption. I'm now somewhere in the mid 20's of not being chosen. Still waiting to hear on two, but not getting my hopes up or focusing on that. I have however decided to update this blog with life changes.
As many know for the past two years I have endured some harsh working conditions with a boss who has put me on his 'list' and bullied and harassed me. It's been a rough two years. He started by censoring my shows (they were already extremely carefully chosen), then moved to harassing students and community members to get them to find faults with me and when they could not support anything he said he moved to flat out lying. In February he decided that I was no longer going to do any extracurricular next year---yes I know WHAT!?! He's a bit psychotic. I apparently have a split personality that I, nor anyone else, sees. Enough about that. It sucked, no one understood why it was happening, and while I tried to fight it, it was harder and harder to go to work. I love the kids and enjoyed working with them, which made it all the harder. So I started job looking and found a great job, that I got hired for. I will be moving to another school (still teaching theatre) and not only does it come with a massive pay raise, but it is closer to family and friends. And I will no longer have to worry about the community restrictions as much as I do here.
And so in the past month I have gotten a job, quit my job, started looking for houses, and trying to get mine ready to sale. I am pretty sure I've found my new place, but sadly must wait till mine is sold. And I'm a little frustrated with that as I thought the realtors were coming to put it on the market yesterday and they told me they would come back when it was show ready.....um I'm selling it as is so I'm confused on that, not to mention while yes it isn't perfect, it was ready. So now I'm a little upset that this doesn't seem to be moving forward. I'm very ready to get out of the town I'm in.
So for a change most of my life is looking up. When I do get all down, I always try to remember there is a light still and the dark tunnel will end, but this time it was getting harder and harder to believe that. But now a few weeks and all has changed.
Now I just need a call for a baby. :-)
I really wish that would happen.
And to top it off it's summer time!!!! Though you wouldn't think it is by the weather...It's done nothing but rain for the past week and a half....but every once in a while we do get a glimpse at the blue sky and sun, so even the weather will eventually move on.
