I just wanted to let you all know that I was hired yesterday! I was switched from special education into 1st grade gen. ed at Jackson Elementary School. I already met some of my kids at their summer school and met other CMs who are working at the same school. My boss cooked etouffe (sp?) and no-bakes for us as a celebration, but I still haven't experienced any crawfish. I'll keep you posted on that.
Louisiana is so wonderful, and extremely humid! I swam with a bullfrog at a CM's house the other night and heard stories about armadillo crossings and hurricanes. I am expected to close on an apartment with a really lovely fellow 2009 CM by tomorrow - rent is $250/mo. TWO. HUNDRED. FIFTY. As a girl from New York, my jaw just hit the floor. This place is so different from home!!
I'm loving it out here, even though I'm constantly exhausted from being in sessions all day. I hope you all are well!

Congrats on placement! So jealous - $250! I'm looking at spending $1100/month.
