Thanks guys. The interview went great, I felt I did my very best. It was 1 hour 15 minutes which seems long for a teacher interview. They had about 10 questions for me to answer and we spent 20 minutes on my employment history alone (moving 9 times will do that to you!). But they seemed to take that as a positive, commenting on how I had the advantage of seeing how things were done in several different school districts, and having taught regular ed, special ed, and ESL before...anyway I felt great about it. Didn't see H last night after all. Iowa got a snow/ice storm and the roads were bad so by the time he made it to my MIL's house, the kids and I had left for my parents' house. But he called when he got there to say he made it safely. This a.m. at 6:20 he sent me a good luck TM re. my interview. Felt bad I hadn't sent a TM for his first day on the job.
But sent one at 7:00. Besides the kids and I made him a good luck card on Sunday morning and I had given him a brief note Sunday telling him the things about him that I am proud of (in Church saturday they said men prefer being recognized/respected for their efforts over random mushy ILY stuff that us girls like!). So I think I covered that base.
The interview basically ended w/them saying if they want me I can start next Fall or in April (it is a currently open position), which ever I want. They will let me know within 10 days if I am the one for the job. But the principal walked me out and said "Hopefully we will be talking to you soon." I thought the Hopefully was a good sign....
Anyway H and I will have some thinking to do if I move up there in a month. And I let him know today that I could be there in April, just casually mentioned that part of the interview when he called this evening.
Feeling sad tonight. Even after all the good stuff it is my first night home since he moved out. I know it is for a job, he didn't just pack up and go like he planned to do before, but I really feel like we are Separated now (duh, we are!) and it bums me out. I just hope we wind up in the same home once I go to Iowa. Part of me is afraid we will never live together again............ I won't show him my fear though, at least I will try not to. I don't want to ask him about what happens when I move until I know I am moving. If I don't get the job I will be here at least until the end of May sub-teaching.
Oh well, signing off for tonight. Wish me luck on not letting S5 sleep with me--he loves to do that when H is on a work trip, but that is for one night, not for a month at a time Don't want to start a bad habit.....
