I got the official job offer today so I can relax finally. I actually got offered a teaching position at another school but I turned it down because I knew it would be too stressful. I'll be making half as much as I was making as a teacher though which will put me back living paycheck to paycheck. That will be stressful but I can handle it. I need this year "off" so to speak to re-evaluate my career goals. I'll be much happier as a para.
