AW: Job news!

I just had to share my good news! 

Ever since I became a librarian, I've been commuting to a different county to work. Because my husband's job requires that we live in a certain county, I've been trying to find something closer to home for years. Well, this week I got a job offer at a local public library that's only 10 minutes down the road from my house! 

It's a Teen Librarian position doing collection development and programming, which is exactly what I want to do. The library just renovated and created a brand new teen area, and this is a new position so I will get to be creative and try new things. 

AND I'll get to work fewer hours at a higher pay rate, so we'll have more income in the end. Now I can afford the daycare that I like best, and the hours work perfectly with the daycare schedule. Plus I'll have evenings and most weekends off and be eligible for benefits. 

I almost didn't apply for the job since I'm 8 months pregnant and was nervous about interviewing, but I'm so glad I did. I'll start the new job soon and then take a maternity leave in September/October. I will miss my current co-workers, but I think this new job will give me a better work/life balance and the job duties are more aligned with my interests. Anyway, just wanted to share! :)
