Things Are Looking Up

This is a day for celebration; I've been put on Leilehua High School's priority substitute teaching list. That means that as soon as the district calls me to schedule fingerprinting and then enters me into the DOE database, I can start working as a substitute teacher! If I do a good job subbing I can work every day. That means I'll make enough money to afford to live indoors! I can cover my bills, pay back all the wonderful folks that have helped me in the past many months and actually get ahead!

I'm so very happy!

Of course, I'll need to continue the night-time stocking job for a few more months until I get a handle on my bills, but there's an end in sight. I'm so very happy!

To add to the happiness, a good friend sent a box of books for Butterfly and me to enjoy.  Best part? the books filled with Modesty Blaise comics!  Modesty is my favorite heroine (along with Emma Peal, of course!)

This weekend I'm scheduled to do another cooking demo. This time I'll dress up in 50's housedress, apron, and blond wig ala June Cleaver to demo a marinade. I'm not sure what the tie-in is, but that's okay. It will be silly and fun. I'll post the photos on this blog either on Sunday or Monday.

Update: My boss has informed me that the costumed cooking demo has been postponed to a to be determined date.  Oh well, that means I have tomorrow morning free.

I hope you have a wonderful day, too!
