After looking forward to my birthday week, I'll go ahead and say I was sorely disappointed. Oh the birthday wasn't bad-I seemed to not flinch much at all at the prospect of being 46. I only noted that now I was closer to 50 than 40, a little scary but nothing to fret over. Then the bombshells began dropping and the week went downhill.
First I found out that my current position with the DeSoto ISD as a technology coach has been eliminated due to budget constraints next year. I am still employed this year and next year too, if I want to go back into the classroom in DeSoto, but the job that I absolutely loved, is now gone. I am not at all thrilled with the prospect of returning to the classroom in DeSoto, that is why I changed jobs in the first place, so now I am looking to see what doors may be open for next year somewhere else. In education it is always a waiting game to see what jobs will be available and where so I just need to have patience and wait and see what is available. Change is good, right?
Now for the other bad news, the doctor has discovered a growth in my dad's bladder and it does not look good, or at least that is what that doctor had to say to dad. He will be having it removed on the 28th and we will know more then.
After all of this, I know that all I have to do is trust that God has the best for me and that Dad will be all right no matter what the prognosis. I'm just going to put my faith where it needs to be in the One who can take care of it all.
