Starting a new job this afternoon!
Since last Oct. I've been working P/T as a caregiver @ an assisted living facility. I was really starting to burn out. A couple of weeks ago I saw an ad in our local paper for a P/T teaching position @ the YMCA. Long story short....I got the job! It's Mon-Fri 3-6 p.m. and they are actually giving me more in pay than advertised in the paper, as I have quite a few years of experience. I'll be working with 4 yr olds for now. And the best part.....It's less than a mile from my home
I have less than 3 hours until I start and I'm not sure if I'm nervous, excited or both! But at the moment I feel like puking! LOL!

Thanks ladies! I had a great first day
I may be off tomorrow as it looks like it will probably be a snow day here. We are expecting 12-14 inches!
