I’ve started supply teaching and it’s pretty awesome – I already have jobs booked for every day this week and one day next week. On Friday I got to be a librarian and spent the day helping kids check out books, reading to kindergartners, letting kids hang out in the library and play chess or put books away when they didn’t want to go out for recess (I can totally identify – I was totally one of those kids who looked for jobs in the school in the winter so I wouldn’t have to go out in the cold.) I am used to becoming BFFs with my coworkers so it was a little sad going in to two different schools and not knowing anyone, and having no one pay that much attention to me since they know I’m just there for a day. But then I would think instead about how much better this job is than the coffee shop or any other job I’ve ever had was and feel MUCH better.

I didn’t have my mom to take a picture of me on my first day of school so I took one of myself instead:

One good thing about not having my own classoom? If I wear the same thing every day, no one will ever know! I always find a favourite outfit and then it’s the only thing I want to wear for a few days, until I move onto a new one. This job totally feeds that habit. For the past three days I’ve been wearing a white t-shirt, tan cardigan and green scarf :

And there’s a good chance that this trend will continue tomorrow and no one will ever know (except Kent, but he has to love me anyways. Well actually not even Kent, because he won’t realize it.)

I thought it would be fun (okay, my boredom has reached it’s max!) to take a self timed shot and show you exactly what my anti-superbowl night looks like. My little buddy Levi is hanging out with me as usual so I’m not totally alone (Kent’s at a superbowl party.) The anti red eye wouldn’t work on the kitten’s eyes, what is up with that? It makes me laugh that Levi is looking at the camera, he’s so aware.

Enjoy the rest of your superbowl, or anti-superbowl evening!
