Hi!  Big changes are going on around my world.  I have decided to make a huge leap and have re-entered the job-market. I actually applied this spring for a few teaching positions and I had my mind set to substitute for another year (I substitute taught this spring) and slowly adjust to working on someone else’s schedule….then I had an interview on Thursday and was hired Thursday evening for a 6th grade math teaching position which begins MONDAY!! So that makes it a very abrupt change of life . The past four years have been a fabulous journey…and being my own boss was fantastic as well as working with glass has been energizing….however, working with kids and teaching has always been a passion of mine since I was a little girl…. and I was missing teaching!!  I am looking forward to having a fun and exciting year teaching sixth grade math.

Although, I’ll miss hanging out on some of the glass forums all hours of the day and night!!  
It will be a huge adjustment trying to balance my new teaching schedule and responsibilities with my family and if time ,creating new glass treasures so please be patient with me during this first month. 

I’ll keep you updated as the changes begin…but if you do not hear from me right away, you will know that I am buried under the beginning of the schoolyear paperwork.
