Student Teaching & Job Hunting

To start things off- here is one of the many attractive pictures that I have of David.  He LOVES taking pictures of himself. Kind of weird... but in a cute way:)

David has been student teaching for a week and a half now.  He is teaching in a 7th grade Utah History class.  The teacher he is working with is Mr. Christmas (great name!).  Right now, he isn't doing a lot of whole class teaching. But, as the semester goes on, his responsibilities will increase. By the end, Mr. Christmas will only be observing while David teaches.  He enjoys working with the kids one on one.  But, he's excited to progress to being the main teacher.  

I am currently looking for work.  I have had 3 interviews. I should hear back from one today and one tomorrow.  I have applied at several places.  The one thing I have to justify my lack of success is that we're only going to be here for 5 months.  I'm assuming this doesn't help my appeal as an employee.  It's hard remain hopeful.  I'm really glad I have David to keep my spirits up:) I applied to Big 5 yesterday, and I just got done applying to Fedex Kinkos.  I would love working at either one of these, or both since they're part time. 

The RS presidency came over yesterday and had some great work leads.  There is a great need for Census workers in UT for Census 2010.  I called and set up a time to take an employment test and fill out paperwork.  This one sounds hopeful. We'll see!
