It's official!

I can finally make this public. I will be teaching full time by the end of the month! The Electronic Classroom of Tomorrow, aka ECOT, has called me in for all the HR paperwork and training my heart can desire. In addition, they have scheduled someone to come out and set up my own Internet work line.

Right now, the hubby and I are having some conflicting ideas of where I'll set up shop in the house. He thinks I'll be fine in the living room since the strongest wireless connection is there. I think that's a terrible idea because I can't sit comfortably and work in there and would prefer to neaten up the office, which is currently more of a book repository (our combined library is more than our shelf space). We'll see how this pans out when the cable guy comes out on the weekend.

Migod, even after a full month of pretty much knowing I had this job in hand, it's still so crazy knowing that I was one of the lucky people to land a full-time teaching job. It's even crazier that I'll be telecommuting instead of driving halfway across the county as I have been for the past three years. I'm hoping to put my first paycheck towards that bicycle I had been eyeing this summer. If I'm not going to be running around a "brick and mortar" classroom, I'm going to need a reason to stay in shape.

BTW, I will be blogging about my school experiences, but that will be in my super secret journal that allows me to make entries private for friends. Let me know if you're actually interested in reading, and I'll send the link!
