Career Day

It is that time again. 

Kelsey from Keeping up with Kelsey and I are co-hosting another  link-up.

You probably noticed we skipped our "the good life" link-up last week. 

No great excuse...Wednesday just snuck up on us with Monday being a holiday!

This week’s theme is  CAREER DAY.

Well….right after High school I went to college and graduated with a degree in

Interior Design and minored in Art.

I did design work for a few years and really enjoyed it

but decided to follow my original passion, to be an Art Teacher!

So now I have my teaching license but am not a teacher, YET.

Living in rural Nebraska there is not a lot of demand for art teachers

but I am confident that soon I will have job doing what I love!

For now I am a substitute teacher and I am really enjoying it.

I feel that these years of being a sub are going to make me a much more effective teacher.

I am able to learn/observe/try out a variety of classroom management styles.

One of the perks of being a sub is the extra flexibility,

which is especially nice with 2 young cowgirls not yet in school.

I am enjoying being a sub but the goal is to be a full time teacher in the future.

{I plan to never grow up} Being a teacher allows me to always look forward to

Christmas break, snow days, and SUMMER VACATION!

Since it is summer vacation…..I am currently a stay at home mom.

So now I spend my days watering flowers, working in the garden, cleaning,

laundry, playing with kids, going to the pool, play dates, baseball games,

library visits, cooking, working on projects, chores, and a lot more….

I love summer and being home with my kids!!!! 

Shhhh....I don't get dressed up nice everyday! 

If I have no place to go and I'm just going to be out at the farm all day I look more like this...

I’m looking forward to reading others career day posts.
