Fingers Crossed!
Hopefully I will have a better update later, but if I can get any more positive energy directed my way by posting this, it will be worth it.
I HAVE AN INTERVIEW THIS AFTERNOON WITH A COLLEGE FOR AN ADJUNCT INSTRUCTOR POSITION!!!!
This is the official name for the teaching I am qualified to do. I have absolutely no idea what it pays, although I know it's much less than teaching as a full time professor, but hopefully it will be enough. Please let it be enough! This is really something I could get excited about and enjoy doing. And something that should fit in perfectly with my family's needs...as long as I get paid!
I turned in my equipment to my former employer and mailed off my "Separation Agreement" paperwork yesterday. The final ties were cut. The same day, I get called for an interview for what I want to do. Let it be a sign. Please let it be a sign.
Fingers crossed. Toes crossed. Hopefully a better update later.
