Election Day Madness

Today is Election Day, so please remember to vote! I am an avid believer that we all need to practice this constitutional right! As an African American woman, I know the risks that both African Americans and women took to make sure that I could go to the polls today. What a slap in the face it would be to their legacy if I refused to get up and vote today. This is such a critical election, so I beg you, to please make sure you vote. Remember we can’t complain if we did nothing to help make a change. Whether you believe your vote is big or small, it makes a DIFFERENCE!

That ends my spiel about the importance of voting:) I am still waiting on the sub center to call as well. Today was a good day only because I am so excited that I got to vote. My workday was an hour shorter than usual, so that I could go vote but the kids were showing no mercy today. Hard days like this make me sad because I would rather be working in a school but I’m not. I know it’s not about the money but living from paycheck to paycheck is really hard. If I could turn back the hands of time to this time last year, I would make sure that I was better prepared. I would have paid for 2 Praxis test instead of 3 and taken the GRE when I had the money. Too bad there is no use for shoulda, coulda, wouldas! I won’t admit defeat and I am praying that I come across some better opportunities. I am thanking God for the possibilities that lie ahead of me.

3 A Day Rant

1)      I voted! Are you tired of hearing me say this? Please say no:) Go vote!!!

2)      I get to spend some time with family today.

3)      I started looking up graduate programs. I looked at U of L today and have bookmarked the technology program to become a computer instructor, a Reading Specialist, or an Autism Specialist. Bellermine is next. 

Someone asked if I was interested in teaching in Indiana, I am but only as a last resort because I took a scholarship that turns into a loan if I don’t teach in Kentucky for four years. I don’t want to pay that 20, 000 dollars back with my money unless I have to. I am claiming that I will receive a job for next semester or next fall:)

Until the next time life has checked me.
