Here we are, Monday!
So I got a teaching job!
It is only on a very part time basis, one day a week. Here in BC teachers can share a position, so I am sharing a grade 2 classroom with another teacher. I am excited as this is my first "permanent"position since graduating 6 years ago from Education! I am taking baby steps as I am not ready to teach full time, not sure I would want to.
I am almost finished my spray painting project, which had a glitch. I ran out of a sheen of spray paint and then could not find it anywhere. I emailed Rustoleum, who put me in contact with Home Depot, who in turn searched the system and told me it was discountined. So I changed my juicy **** paint to gloss. You'll have to see the colour later. I have one more thing to do and then I will show you all!

Lovin the red! And congrats and good luck with your new teaching position. I hope it brings you a lot of joy, kids are so much fun :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your job Barbara, that's great news - I know how hard it is to get teaching positions!!
ReplyDeleteYay for Barbara!!!!!!!! Congrats on the job. I think one day is perfect for your busy lifestyle. I know about your project, they involve certain chairs that are painted that lovely reddy/orange color as shown in those pics. I absolutely love em. Can't wait to see those revealed.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to hear that! I think teaching is one of the most important jobs out there. Must be so satisfying teaching young kids.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the job! I'm sure you will be inspired daily by all those creative second-graders. ;)
ReplyDeleteOk, now looking very forward to seeing red chairs...
Congrats on the job! I think you'll have a lot of fun with it. Can't wait to see that finished project!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Barb!!!! I think that must be so adorable to be around all those little cutie pies all day. I didn't realize you had only graduated 6 years ago. I thought this was something you did since leaving school. I'm sure you'll be amazing and the kids will love you. Can't wait to see your project.
ReplyDeleteHaving a predictable teaching position is so much easier than being on call, but the beauty is you can still do both! Congratulations, Barbara - I bet this is going to be the best looking classroom in the building, and the kids are going to love you :-) I know you're painting your chairs - I can't wait to see the results!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your teaching job! I think you'll be a really great teacher ;) Best of luck! By the way, totally in love with the black doors from apartment therapy. Great post Barbara.
ReplyDeleteOh I have an idea of what you are painting and what colour...LOL! Congrats on the new job! And no worries about So Canadian Eh...everyone needs a break sometimes...
ReplyDeleteCongrats Mrs. Barbara (completely forgot your last name!) Can't wait to see your red bentwood chairs - think that is what you are painting?
ReplyDeleteCongrats Barbara! That's fantastic. Can't wait to see RED!

That's fantastic! I bet the day goes so fast. That is such a great age. Teach them all about DIY :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new teaching position! Mrs. M! I bet all the little ones will be hoping to be in your class every year! Can't wait to see your chairs made over too!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Barbara! It sounds perfect! A great way to ease into it. I was an art teacher for a while, and my husband is a retired teacher. It's a great schedule, that's for sure. I hope all goes well, and that you love it.
ReplyDeleteLove your red chairs already!!!!

Ooo! Red chairs. Now that is awesome. So sorry you had to start over again, though!
