I Got It!

I got the phone call of my life time today! My new principal called to say I had been recommended by the interviewing committee for the position of art teacher. I was nice and calm on the phone, though I'm sure my excitement bled through the phone line. When she hung up though, I let out a scream that I'm certain, was heard across the street! What a wonderful dream come true - just what I wanted - I feel like I've been reborn. I can't wait until school starts again. I'm going to give them an art program like they have never seen before. On a slightly different note, this is such an affirmation of being an equal opportunity employer. I was judged on my interview and abilities - not on my past or the changes in my life. It was such a validation of my own self - this was a day that I will always remember. I hope I never let them down.
