Just in case you haven't discovered the new Blog - An Unexpected Hug - here is the latest posting. As the HUG blog is mostly about my crafting I am tending to post on there more often. Might be worth following me there!
Anyway here is the latest news!
OK it is Monday so I can divulge... On Saturday I went for an interview with the Gifted Kids programme. This is a one day school for gifted kids, based in an intermediate school. Basically it is all about developing thinking skills, nuturing passions and providing the kind of stimuli that Mainstream school hasn't the time or the ability to provide. It is all about reaching potential. Oh my god it is exciting!
I was convinced I had waffled badly. I was sure I had lost any chance of the job when Ant's satnav decided that the building didn't exist and I had to text for directions... and disclosing I have bipolar disorder... well I was in MY car so it was hard to miss the advert!
I was at Laingholm today, relieving for the day ( with kids who had got up at 2am to watch the All Whites- what were their parents thinking?) so was having morning tea when the deputy head waved a piece of paper in my face - telephone message saying to call to provide a reference! Tee hee! She said she would call at lunchtime!
The same lunchtime, I get a call, at school from the Head of the unit. I GOT THE JOB!!!!!
Someone is brave enough to employ me! Oh my god how scary is that! Of course I said yes immediately and now can start questioning a) my ability b)my sanity c) their sanity for employing AND THEN I can start enjoying the whole idea!!!!
