Decisions...

So I really like my job. I really like where I work-I like the atmosphere and having my own autonomy. After all these positive statements you wouldn't think a but is coming but...it is.

The thing is I don't make enough money to support myself. So right now I'm having to decide whether I want to stay where I am or look for something somewhere else. I'm pretty much leaning toward the latter at the moment-I don't see what could keep me where I am except a drastic rise in salary. I mean, I kind of have two choices-I can stay where I am and look for a full time job for during the day and just do this on the side-or I could look for one full time job teaching Italian. It would be nice if I could do the latter-so I wouldn't have to worry about all the extra work that comes along with teaching-preparation-grading-all that. I mean, finding a job teaching HS would be ideal. It will be really hard to leave this job-especially to leave a job in this economic climate...and I kind of even feel guilty about wanting more than I already have-even though what I have is not enough to sustain myself. And I also know that given this economic climate finding a job in my field might become increasingly difficult in the future. Im not even sure what the outlook is going to be for next year. Plus, what if I get a job somewhere-only to get a pink slip shortly after? Its a lot to consider...but-please just pray for me about all that: for guidance etc. I will definitely need it!
