The Budget

I'm sure everyone living in California has the budget on their mind these days. Things are looking pretty bleak. Makes me want to pack up and head somewhere else. But, here I still am!

Education, of course, will be affected, so there has been lots of talk about what will happen next year. In order to minimize layoffs this year, my district has offered job sharing as an option. This is the first time it's been on our paper we have to fill out about what we'd like to do the next year, so of course I said I was interested. We had a meeting yesterday at the district office, and it looks like it might actually happen. I've even got a partner picked out and ready to go!!

Today I'm home with Adam who's running a fever and getting a little taste of what it might be like next year!! :) Of course, I wouldn't have had to go in at 6:45 to do sub plans, and I wouldn't be trapped at home with a sick kid.....but I can imagine!!!

Bret couldn't stay home with him because he is doing interviews today. Even in this economy he's still hiring, and they're even adding another corporation (that'll be 4!). Good for him, and good for me so I can stay home part-time.

We'll see what happens!!

  1. Doesn't Adam start kindergarten next year? SO you could actually have time to get stuff done without anyone under foot??!!

     
  2. I think Bret will find plenty of work for you to do for him. Then you'll be working full time for him and half time for school.... Good luck with that!
