well, i'm up late, ...printing my invites (which is fun, but taking FOREVER)... and really i'm up because i'm sad. i'm a substitute teacher. i just graduated last august with my MSEd in Special Ed... it's incredibly difficult to get a job out there. i am a per diem sub...but... i just feel like i'm NEVER gonna get a job. i know that people are losing jobs, having a hard time of it... my heart goes out to you. there's just a lot of pressure on me to get a job, get an income... get to feel that feeling you get when you are doing exactly what you want to be doing, at the exact time you want to be doing it...and you go to bed feeling fulfilled and content. (sigh) i guess when you are printing invites for 2 hours... the quiet and the monotony just sorta get to you... anyone have any positive thoughts or anything?

wow gina. your note brought tears to my eyes. (i'm so sappy )... but i read it three times. i would never in a million years ever stop to think that about myself. i've always felt so connected to this field i love so much. i pray for it to find me, for the chance to be what i am, and do it for the rest of my life. thank you so much for taking the time to make me smile (and cry ) i really needed that!
