Yes, really!
I asked a co-worker today if she would be willing to act as a reference now that I am job hunting. The conversation went something like this...
Me: I was wondering if I could list you as a reference on my resume.
Her: Oh I would love to give you...wait a minute...a job here?
Me: No, I'm not asking to work for you, I just wanted a reference.
Her: Wait a minute...you're looking for a job now? Like for next school year???
Me: Uh, yes, that's the idea with a job hunt.
Her: NO...you have to stay in your job...who are we getting to do your job??? No, wait, yes, list me as a reference and when they call I'll tell them what a terrible job you do and what an awful person you are.
Me: Uh, yeah, never mind. Thanks anyway.
I want a new job. I'd like one where I actually get to eat lunch (without refereeing lunch time between 5 year olds) and a job where I actually get a bathroom break...is that TMI? I've been praying about this whole job thing. I really want to be where God wants me to be. It would be nice if God would give me a little phone call and let me know what his plans for me are...
Who Am I?

About Me
I'm a wife, a mom, an educator and a normal (okay, relative term here) person who makes frequent mistakes. I have a lot to say, hence the blog. My kids were adopted as babies (one through an agency and one through the foster care system). I love to talk about adoption. My daughter has sensory issues as well as ADHD. I like to vent about parenting. I am occasionally rosy, usually blunt and sometimes I am simply downright rude. Don't read if it offends you. I may sometimes write about my school experiences so let me cover my bases. I don't live in your town, I don't work at your school, I am not talking about your child, you don't know me. If you think you've figured out who I am...ask me, I will lie and say you don't know me. email me at chocolatecoffeesleep@hotmail.com
