Work Part-time

I want to retire from full-time teaching with 20 years, so I’ll need to work two more years. All of those part-time years when my children were young did not add up to as many years as I had hoped.

So now I’ve decided, and I’ll mark this one done for now.

I resolve to work only at the Idyllwild school site within the next year and a half.

I have been wavering a bit on this intention, with the economy and my personal debts as they are. But I still want to affirm my intention to go forward on this, so that I can expand the private practice to fill in the income and give me more freedom. If I need to wait a year, I can do that.

After the upcoming school year, I want to limit my work at the school district to my home school, where I am currently working two of my five days per week. I would be willing to accept one additional day. I would then supplement my income with private clients and some other work. I will do this!

and the money missing was so little compared to the freedom I’ve had the last three weeks not having to stay so late, being able to flex my hours around since I’m not already staying there 9 hours each day. I’m excited for my class to end so then I can go back to having a full day off every week. totally worth it…do whatever you can to make your budget fit this dream!

with graduate school most likely around the corner…and it’s going to happen! At least, I’m pretty sure. I’m going to make sure I make it into graduate school before I count this done (because if I don’t make it in, I’ll likely go back to full time). But 90% starts in my next pay period for my summer class, at least.

working is one of various way to make ur life worth it, even if it’s a little part-time job!

i’m a trainee at my dad’s law firm :)

hard work sometimes!

I’d like to be able to work part time so I can have better life balance between work and family. I would be able to better take care of myself and my family. It’s tough to achieve any goals when you play the rat race all the time. Between working, working out, taking care of my family, etc. there is little left to do for me.

but work has picked up and I received a new responsibility that I’m really excited about (help me on my way to being a probation officer) so this is back in the wishful thinking file. Maybe in a few more years…

and my actual review is tomorrow, so I should learn more about my options and if it’s something I’m going to be able to feasibly do.
