    Default Hi Ho - It's off to work I go

    I heading back to work after approx 12 years at home with the kids.

    It is temporary job though. I'm substitute teaching for a lady while she is on her honeymoon.

    I have to admit I'm a bit nervous. I hope I'm able to do both my jobs well - the teaching and my mommy jobs. I hope nothing and no one slips through the cracks.

    You will do fine! It's a bit strange to go back into the work world after being home some years with kids, but it will probably feel good, too. You sound cheerful about it,anyways!

    Good luck! I bet you'll do great!

    I am on the other end of the spectrum-- just recently quit my job to be a SAHM! I was nervous, too!

    Good luck! It's very nerve wracking isn't it? Dh and I got married in 1991 and I hadn't worked any until 2007. I work summers now in a campground but that first year was SO hard! I really miss my kids during the summer and just being home!

    Congrats on your new adventure!! Being apprehensive is a good thing!! What grade/subject are you teaching? The kids are lucky to have you for their sub!!

    I'm teaching in a early childhood classroom (older 2 year olds) needless to say I'm covered in paint today. LOL It has been a while since I did art projects with such little ones. All in all I think it was a good first day I'm sure the rest of the time will get easier at least now I know names.

    In my Pre -SAHM days I was a pretty seasoned sub/teacher. I've taught everything from newborns to high school seniors - on their last day of school.
