Taking the reins

I bounced around a growing thought during the past couple of days and this morning I applied to a couple or three Universities to undetrake a teaching course in 2009. As I already have an Arts degree with majors in Literature and History, and a Masters degree in Library and Information Management I have more than one area that qualifies as a teaching speciality. The postgrad degree for secondary education (grades 8-12) is only a 12 month course is Queensland, so if I can find a part time job (20 hours a week) in the next couple of weeks, and be very frugal with my redundancy payout we might just make it through to this time next year when I would hopefully pick up a job. Both daughters have offered to help us out financially, where they can, as well ,because they want to help pathetic Mum find a new recession/outsourcing proof career.

I will also keep job searching for a full time position as well, but if nothing has comes my way by the time Semester 1 starts in late Feb 09 then I hopefully still have some options open to me.

I will fight them on the beaches, and in the mountains, and the city streets. I will not surrender. Not while I still have chocolate and a fair dose of insanity anyway!
