In the last 48 hours, my boss (at Young Audiences) AND my principal (at The Little Academy) BOTH offered me extra hours (with corrosponding extra paychecks!). This should be a good thing . . . but . . .

I started this Minnesota adventure thinking that a part time job and a part time education would be perfect. (It was!) Somewhere along the line "part time job" turned into "Part-time-job-plus-a-teeny-tiny-little-office-gig". (And then "Teeny-tiny-little-office-gig" got a little bigger). (And now bigger!) (And now "part time job" has turned into "Part Time Job PLUS!") - - - the result being that if I accecpt both offers to extend hours I'll be working 43 hours a week!!!

I said "no thanks for now" to YA, and am trying to figure out how I can take on extra teaching (which I'd really like to do - - but I'd also like to stay in the symphony, and stay on with Free Arts, pass all my coursework, and spend long periods of time daydreaming, thinking, and imagining.

It's a nice problem to have! (But it's still a problem!)
