It all started a few weeks ago when I received an unexpected phone call from a local Montessori school that I have been flirting with ever since I moved to town. Out of the blue they offered me a teaching position. Thrilled, I was thrown into a 2 week period of tormenting over the decision of leaving a job I love for a teaching position I wanted. It's a good problem to have in the current state of US employment, and I didn't take that lightly.
Have I mentioned that I am a Libra? A blessing and a curse if you ask me. I can look at an issue/problem/situation/decision and see every single angle, pro and con. I am awful at making decisions - poor mr. bejos! After many, many pro/con lists and flip flopping with my decision multiple times from the moment I woke up to the moment I (finally) fell asleep I decided that I would take a leap of faith and enter the classroom again.
Come this fall I will say goodby to the incredible flexibility and travel that I have enjoyed with my current job and step into a much more set schedule. I expect to work very hard, as one does with a new job, and be very tired. I am quite worried about getting out the door in the morning. I have become too accustomed to working in my pajamas from home with very leisurely mornings. I suppose it is time to move on. Did I mention the real kicker that put us over the edge in choosing the teaching position? The school offered bejos boy a space in their very, very good toddler program.
So the overblown drama is over and I am looking forward, with conviction and excitement, to the changes for the bejos clan.
Congratulations Kristen! So many mixed emotions but how nice for you and Everett! Way to go...you're in hot pursuit!
