Officially Unemployed in Public

Today was my last day at school. The kids were ok, as good as could be expected on the last day. My hubby and youngest son came for about two hours before lunch. They led Bingo, and some other games. My son got to go out to recess with my kids. I ended up tearing up twice. Once when I was saying goodbye to some of my really sweet kids, and once when I said goodbye to my team. None of us were invited back next year. As I said the principal got rid of everyone he could, the rumor is he wants to bring in his own people.

It was sad taking one last look at my empty classroom and walking out. I was hoping to just leave my keys in the principals box and be on my way, but I had to talk to him because he was in his office. I’m such a wimp, I didn’t bring up the letter of reference I never got that he promised to write me.

I applied for four more positions today. Just waiting for a call from somewhere.

Planning to file for unemployment tomorrow. I heard that they will deny me at first, but it should go through when I fight it. I can prove I was forced to resign because they were not going to renew m y contract. I have the letter from the district that says it. Still worried about it though. We will be ok for a while though at least. They took all the checks I was going to get through August and gave them to me today.

Hubby has a meeting tomorrow for a possible job that is for a good chuck of change. I just hope he’s not getting in over his head, or that he didn’t bid too low. I’ll also be helping him do it. I helped with all his side jobs last summer. It’s a good way to get some exercise, and we work well together.

Then he is supposed to start a regular job on Wednesday. I still have my doubts about it it will actually work out or not. If it does, it will be great and a big stress off of me. He says if he’s making enough to cover the bills, he doesn’t care if I work or not. I’d still work though, but if he was making enough, I wouldn’t be stressed out about wanting to find something or the world is going to end. Ideally, I’d like to work and build a savings. Right now we are pretty much pay check to paycheck with some student loan and credit card debt thrown in. And of course, there is the Mustang I dream about one day owning. And while I’m dreaming, let’s throw in a tummy tuck and a boob lift too.
