Ok, it is Wednesday and we are still in Cambridge. Yikes. We have picked out our potential place in Haverhill, but are still waiting for our references to go through. If everything goes splendidly, we will be moving in tomorrow morning. If things don't.... we have a contingency plan for Friday at least.
I don't want to talk too much about the potential place just in case we don't end up getting it, but it's absolutely HUGE. It's a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath brand new house. It's much more space than we need, but it's comfortably within our budget (Haverhill is cheap) and I'm kind of in love with the kitchen and master bedroom ensuit.
I visited the school I'm going to be teaching at today. I'm going to be teaching grades 5, 6, 7, and 8. But I have my own room with a data projector and SmartBoard and everyone seems nice. My first day is Friday, which is a PD day, and then only the grade 5's are in the school on Monday, and then my first real teaching day is Tuesday. Hopefully I have a place to live by then!
I'll keep you posted.
