Day 126: Just when I think I have time off

So, yesterday I was working and the principal asked if she could talk to me. I was a little nervous, but also knew I had done nothing wrong. She had me walk out to the hallway with her and she asked if I was interested in a long term sub position in Pre-K. She told me it would be through the end of the year and possibly through the end of the school year. She also said that it could turn into a full-time teaching job, and asked if I could start the next day. I told her I would love to except I already had some conflicts. She said she knew about my husband coming home soon on R&R and that it was ok. She said she would put another sub in for those times and then I could come back on after that. I was shocked because they never do that for subs, either the sub can go start to finish, or not at all. I gladly accepted the job and started it today.

It was a great day and I really did enjoy being around that age group of kids. The only downer was that I have been in frantic mode all day. I expected to have the day off today to study for my certification test that I have scheduled for tomorrow. Since I had to work, I lost a lot of study time and now I feel like I am so far behind that I could not possibly pass the test. This is where my weeks get screwed up. I plan things out a certain way and count on my scheduled days off to get things done.

It has really bitten me in the butt this time. We will have to see how I do on my test tomorrow. I am not so confident about it, unfortunately. Oh well, another day down, another day closer to him.... R&R is so close, the countdown is now so low that it is excruciating!
