Just a quick update --

I got a job! I am a math (yikes) and science teacher. It is a youth in custody facility for girls. I've been in a whirl-wind of lesson plans because I have to prep for a billion lessons everyday. I have about 8 different math lesson plans, ranging from basic math, algebra, and geomety. In biology I only have 3 students, but they are in all different places in the book. For Earth Science, they've also been working at their own pace in the book, but none of them have learned anything about Earth Science. And then I also teach a Finincial Literacy class, where we've been talking about the rule of 72, and saving vs. investing. Blah, I'm ready for a break already.

Austin's job is going great too. We are both so grateful we have work, especially when so many people are strugggling in the employment department. We are truly blessed.
