public versus private.

[lighter]

Two steps forward.....

but then.....

that one step back is always a kick in the gut.

What you're experiencing.... in my opinion.....

is what it feels like when you learn how to find comfort and sancuary with your own companionship.

This pain and lonliness will lead you to growth and comfort within yourself.

It doesn't come without these painful lessons.

Keep learning and striving.... setting goals and honoring your boundaries, Lupe.

You'll get there.

And..... it's still unclear to me whether or not you got a written agreement from the private school?

I hope you did.

With the extra driving.... you wouldn't gain much by taking that job, IMO.

I like that you're at the beach, with a pay increase, not too long a drive and finally meeting people in your building.

Are there any activities in your building?

Any local book clubs you can check into?

Thank you everybody for nice responses.

Lighter, you are right again, no written agreement yet. But she gave me her word.

I deiceded that I wll go to public school if I get an offer in and only in an elemntary school and in the county where I am leaving in right now or if it is in another county, it has to be no more than 45 minutes driving.

There is an opening in my county right now. Just one. I applied. They have not called me yet.

They do not say what school, so I will not know until they ask me ofr an interview.

If it is 45 minutes or less driving, and they offer me a job, I will take it.

So, now after so much analizing it and listeng and reading all your opinions I have gotten to that conclusion.

Thank you for your help.
