worry wart.

4 weeks is when Nicko's job 'runs out'. We found this out officialy today.


I'm a nervous wreck. His boss told him he doesn't have work lined up for these 4 weeks but he's going to try to get some things together.. I get paid bi-weekly and I'm just trying to figure out HOW IN THE WORLD we are going to pull this off...

He's tried one place hoping to get the job. Supposdly, from two reliable sources, they are hiring for new positions. He's been down there a few times, and to my knowledge has never gotten a straight answer from the 'bosses' if they are or are not looking for new people...He stopped by there today on his way home from work and has yet to get a definate answer. I know he really wants it and we also found out or town is looking for volunteer firefighters. he's taken an interest in this as well since volunteers get benefits and paid training. He also learned that the training firefighters recieve is the same training as the other job he wants. Technically it's a win-win situation for him...assuming he can do one or the other. (possibly both?!)


On top of that is open house tonight. We, once again, get to talk with parents about our classroom procedures and what not. Shouldn't be bad I just don't like talking to everyone. Especially 20x2 parents. (eek!)

girl i know exactly what you are going through. it's the same here. though i enjoyed summer off, and i was bringing in some money, i shouldn't have taken the entire time off. i don't fully regret it, but what's done is done..and i had fun. i think we have about the same in ours. each week is...interesting. and yeah, we are usually late on everything too. i hope your situation gets better. where do you live? i know our place is looking for subs if you are in the area....
