Shari Mar 29, 2007

Many of you know that I teach a Grade 4 class one day a week and substitute the rest of the week mostly at my base school. I don't end up getting many days off but I have longed for a class of my own and to have the same grade everyday.
  Well, I just got the news that I was successful this week in getting a job for the rest of the school year in the Grade Primary class  :dance:   :dance:  I already know and love these little people because I have spent many days in their class for the regular teacher who is pregnant. It is still only considered day to day subbing but they will be my class for the next two months.  

  Unfortunately, something needs to give and since I am unwilling to stop making bears, I need to stop spending time on the computer. I will need to stop browsing bears on eBay and worst of all, stop coming to Teddy Talk     The last few months, I have only had time to read and view posts and all the beautiful bears. Now I must stop visiting. I will really miss all of you but hope to maybe stop in once or twice on the weekends. I will list bears on ebay when I can and would love to hear from anyone that might like to email. Hugs to you all, happy bearmaking :hug:   :hug:   :hug:   :hug:

Thanks,  :hug:   :hug: I know I'll miss TT but maybe I'll have more time this summer to catch up

Shari,
Congratulations!
And I totally understand about having to leave TT... it does take up a lot of time and takes an emotional toll as well as we want to read about what's going on in our friends lives and in the bear world and we want to respond to everyone but there comes a point when we just can't and we have to put ourselves first. I'm at that point myself.

We'll miss you but totally understand and will just look forward to summer when you'll have a bit more time!
Glad to hear you won't stop making bears! Yippee!!!

:hug:

Shari congratultions on the great job opportunity.  I can imagine it would be so much better having your own class.  I am sorry to hear that you won't be on TT much and I hope you still get time to make bears .     :hug:

Thanks girls   :hug:  Your right Sarah, I have been waiting for this for awhile. It doesn't count as a term or days needed to get a permanent job but the experience will be great and will count in an interview. I love working with 5-6 year olds and this is the best time of year  
I already miss you guys and TT a great deal but I'm sooo busy trying to get ready and organize all the grade 4 stuff for the girl that will replace me Hopefully I'll get everything under control this week.
                                                            Miss you guys  :hug:   :hug:   :hug:
