Choices when really one is a 99%maybe

Vancouver Jobs - Called on Friday and left a message while I was at work.  I take this as when I call back they are going to be offering me a job.  Yay!

I need to find daycare for Maggie up in Vancouver if I take this job.  One friend told me about her sitter who charges $600 a month which is a steal.

Multnomah - (a.k.a. my neighborhood) - Talked with the Director on Friday they are still running the background check on me but everything looks good so I am on the "LOOKS REALLY GOOD" list.  They will be calling next week to offer me a job.  They pay a little less but I would make up for that in gas savings and commute time. 

Maggie could stay at her daycare their rates are a lot higher and I may make to much money to qualify for their financial aide.  They charge $1025 a month. 

Daycare Job - Is going well.  I worked until 6pm on Friday.  At like 5pm they brought the School Age kids into my room there were two of us but our kids ages were 2 1/2 up to 12.  Which is insane.  The group was insane.  Then once the group was down to 10 kids the other teacher left.  I didn't even know the school aged kids names.  I so did not like that!!!!

Vancouver Job is checking my references

Whoo!

Waiting patiently because at some time soon a job offer is going to come from either Vancouver or Multnomah.  Fingers crossed!!  My references have been thoroughly checked.  I hope to find out soon.  I need to give notice at the daycare, my understanding is that these jobs start next week.  I want to be able to start, I also want to be able to get Maggie in appropriate daycare for either location.  If I get the Multnomah location we are covered for daycare - she will go to the same place she has been going.  If I get the Vancouver position I have some referrals and would like to get those checked out this weekend, if possible.  No matter what I am super excited. 

Please God - send me to the job that fits me best and keep anything bad from happening now or in the future!!

Crap, crap, crap - I am getting a cold!

Right at the busiest craziest point this summer (okay maybe not) I am getting a aweful cold.

Tomorrow I picked up a 3 hour shift at the daycare to shadow another worker.  Then I drive as fast and as safely as possible to Vancouver for a second round interview for a ECEAP Teacher position and  a Teacher and Family Advocate position.  Yay me!

Interviews, interviews, interviews

Soon, very soon I will have a job in Oregon (maybe Washington) working as a Preschool/Head Start Teacher.  Last week, I interviewed for a Head Teacher at the Neighborhood House.  They had 3 positions at 2 locations either in Multnomah Village or Markham Elementary.  The lady from NH called today because she was having a hard time getting a hold of a few of my references.  So I got her new information.  Fingers crossed that she calls tomorrow because the position starts on Monday.

The nice thing about this position is that it is 30 hours a week, M-Th which means I can sub on Friday and make almost as much as I make in 2 days of working for NH.  NH is a better job because it is stable and has benefits, but subbing will give me that extra little push financially.  Yay!!

Can't wait to hear for sure.
