more from the RGV
I know, I'm lazy. I have yet to post any Texas pictures and that is mainly because most everyone has facebook and that is where the pictures are. But if you harbor a deep desire to see where I live, leave me a comment and I will definitely post them. I don't want to leave anyone out :)
So it was actually kind of cool (weather wise) in the beginning of the week. I have actually been wearing a hooded sweatshirt on my nightly walks, and that is divine. But its still only like 60 degrees at night, but I will take it. During the day it has finally stopped being in the 90s, and for the remainder of the week its been in the mid to upper to 80s. It's hot, but not as hot. Thank God. It was sucking.
I have a job. I work about 30 hours a week, get paid crap and feel massive amounts of stress. This is supposed to just be a temporary job while I continue to job hunt--thats what I told my boss when I was hired. I am an Assistant Teacher at a Preschool. I work with the Younger Ones class and it is a handful. I also sub sometimes in the Twos class, which is an entirely different experience. I don't hate it, but I can't justify my pay...I have a college degree. Call me an elitest, but I spent thousands of dollars on my education for a reason. But I am still searching for the "perfect job" and will meanwhile work this one...I am thankful for the opportunity and will appreciate my meager paychecks.
Its all surreal still. I live in Texas? Really? I am thankful for Alan and all that he does for me. I miss my friends and family terribly, and to be honest I just keep busy to keep my mind off of it. I don't know if that will ever get easier.
