I got a job. It's very part time but it should be really fun!
What is it, you ask?
Why, I'm the 2nd assistant cheerleading coach at a local high school. Talk about a dream job, eh? At least for me. I cheered a bunch in my younger years and I LOVED every minute of it, so when I heard from our neighbor friend Jethro (who happens to be a teacher at this school) that there was an opening and the hours would be workable for me, I applied. Then I got an interview. And low and behold, they picked me!
I went to meet the squad and watch them practice today. It reminded me of how much I really liked high school and how much I loved cheering. Probably because my best friends were all on the squad. That was the main reason I did it. It was so much fun.
Even though it's such a small gig in comparison to others, I'm still a little nervous about it. I'm lucky that they are flexible with me bringing Hayden to practices and events if I have to. That's one of the main reasons I could do it. I'm really hoping this will be a good way to get me out of the house and involved in something fun.
I'm excited.
Wish me luck. I have my first morning practice tomorrow at 6am. :)
