Those Who Wait
April 4, 2016, Prescott- I got my photo loading device on the laptop fixed, this evening, so a hiking post, or two, is in the offing for tomorrow and Wednesday. Today, though, is a time for mentioning something unexpected.
I went to work at our intermediate school, this morning, only to be told my services were not needed there, due to the convoluted situation in which they found themselves. On a whim, I asked the secretary to call HR and see whether they had any other needs for the day. HR asked me to go to Prescott High School, and help in the Resource Center.
It turned out that the lead teacher there thought I was her new assistant, for the rest of the academic year. I said I would be available, about 90 % of the remaining time, given a few “word is my bond” obligations elsewhere. Both the teacher and the office manager seem fine with that, so I did my job today and will work three more days this week, and 4-5 days a week there, the rest of this month and all but five of the school days in May.
Those who wait, with open eyes and ears, can be rewarded.

congratulations on the new job.
@Crystalinne: Thank you, Crystal!
Yay! When one door closes a window often opens! I'm sure you will be an asset in the resource center!! And a steady influx of cash is nice to have!
@murisopsis: Correct on both counts.
