Back to life, back to reality, and back to limbo.

Hi ladies!  I know I've been MIA - I can't nest at work, and I've been pulling 15+ hour days since November.  My musical was 3/25 and 3/26 and was amazing.  So wonderful.  NYSSMA was March 29-31, and now I'm knee-deep in grading.

I mentioned back in February that my job was possibly on the chopping block.   As of Monday, we were slated to lose 93 positions, but somehow, my job was safe.  We got the breakdown yesterday, and no music jobs were being cut, which is a miracle, and I started to breathe for the first time since November when the musical stress began.  Well, I go on my district's local sites today, and I discovered that they put the GATE program back into the budget, which logically means that other things are going to be cut.  AARGH!!  The BOE has to formally adopt the budget on the 13th, but this next week is going to kill me.  Already, every single person in my building who was at new teacher orientation with me has been notified that they are being cut.  It's heartbreaking.  I'm going nuts.  I hated limbo as a kid, and I hate it even more now!

Nestie vibes, please - I really need my job!

RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me.
You made my wedding day complete.

    Everyone welcome.
  • Hi!  I've been thinking about you and meaning to send a message asking how the musical went.  Very glad to hear it went well.  That's always such a mix of relief, pride, and a touch of nostalgia that it's actually over. 

     Keeping my fingers crossed that your position stays safe!
