Bullets
My neck and shoulders are killing me, and I’m still recovering from the weekend. Here are some bullets:
- I got my new cell phone today. It’s awesome. If you feel like you don’t have the number and should, please let me know.
- My friend Kate sent me a copy of the newest/last Harry Potter in the mail as a belated birthday gift. I got it yesterday at 6pm when I got home and I’m on chapter 15 now. Please don’t tell me anything if you’ve finished it or are further along than I am. I don’t want to know. Thanks Kate for the awesome gift.
- Patricia (Jake’s Mom) has purchased me a Scrapbooks Etc. Magazine subscription as a belated birthday gift. This is beyond awesome.
- I went to my new school today. My office is amazing; there’s so much room and so many resources to use. I’m really, really looking forward to working here. I was also told that I will get a mentor this year, just like all the new teachers. This is incredibly wonderful; it will be a person I can go to with questions or concerns. I didn’t get this at the last job, even though I wanted one.
- Hopefully the paycheck will be deposited into my bank account tomorrow, and the checks I sent out Friday will not bounce.
- I’m considering getting a second job on the weekends, at least for a few months. I have a ton of medical bills rolling in from the surgery, even with insurance. I feel like I need to have more coming in, and without knowing for sure what my exact paycheck is going to look like (there’s a proposed salary increase being voted on here in the state, so it could be more than was listed when I signed), I feel like I need to prepare to do something to subsidize my income.
The weekend was very good. I’m glad I was down in Plymouth with my friends, as they really helped me get through things with minimal effort. I laughed a lot and really enjoyed myself. Now it’s just a matter of catching up on sleep

It sounds as if your new school will be a welcome change! I’ll cross my fingers for your paycheck to be deposited! I know the feeling of a bounced check, and it stinks

Congratulations on the new job. Haven’t been able to keep up with your posts as much lately so not sure where it is but so sure it is worth this run on sentence.
Just imagine what the bills would be like without insurance…I have.
Congratulations again me so happy for you!!
Hugs, hugs, and more hugs!
