Keeping my fingers crossed...

I ran up to the school the other day to measure a bulletin board I'm putting together and ran into the principal. Just a thought, I asked if the librarian position had been filled. She said, "No, and actually I am doing the hiring for it." I told her I had applied online and she said she'd be looking forward to getting my application.

I got home that night and already had an email from her saying she got everything and they were starting the process after the school year starts. Oh, I got an email from the superintendent too thanking me for applying for the position. Not a form letter, but a personal email. I know the way to get places in life is by knowing the right people, and hopefully this will all fall into place. Getting 2 personal emails from the two doing the hiring is a good thing.

What a scary thing it is thinking about jumping into a totally new career after 15 years at the newspaper. Keep your fingers crossed for me... and it wouldn't hurt to say a few prayers :)
