took this evening off from the studio again, but i think i may have turned the corner. still little voice, but more than before, and it happened when it started raining so maybe something’s cleared?
my new job was great. i have prep all this week and don’t have to start teaching something there until next tuesday! what a luxury. don’t know if that will be the case at the second location, but i expect to be speakable by friday again, anyway. boy, i sure hope i’m not fooling myself about feeling better; i went into the studio planning on taking the rest of the week off but i just took tonight, thinking i can do three days a week, anyway. and then, as i say, i felt better, after just about keeling over there at the end of school even though i was only observing. oh well. they (the rec dept) want some sort of documentaition that i’m hired by the schools system, the tools. they have no clue, so they want documentation. what a joke--i wonder how long i can hold out working in both places? it’s supposed to be designed to allow teachers afterschool work and i’d like to do it at least long enough to make up some of my shortfall, if not through next summer so i’ll have work during the summer. unless i can see my way clear to taking the summer off? i don’t know, i should pay bills, i suppose. now that i will be able to. we shall see.
