Very Quick Update...
since the computer starts shutting down in 14 minutes.
Well, I'm alive. And I've been relatively happy seeing as how the 3-month mark of my landing my dream job (daycare teacher) was approaching and I finally had the hours and the money I needed...
But reality bites. And today, it bit me.
See, a week ago from last Friday I was changing a diaper when the parent and older sibling came in and left the door open. Another child managed to get out and actually out of the building (right in front of the door) before another parent grabbed her. I was so scared when I realized what had happened--and what COULD have happened.
Well, fast forward to a week and a lot of paperwork (gotta love State) later--I got fired today. The child's parent doesn't think I appreciate the seriousness of what happened and that it could happen again and my bosses were afraid that they might talk to other parents so I got let go. They were going to do it last week but Kim (the asst. director) said that neither she nor the main boss wanted to do it because I'm so dependable and such a sweetheart.
So I'm in a very bad place right now... what am I going to do about a job? This is a small town with not very many options...
But I'll make it through. I know I will because I've rededicated my life to God... and I know He'll help me through.
Okay, gotta run... I'll try to make better use of this thing, I promise!
