Today is an exciting day! I signed my contract with a private school! I teach elementary art by the way. It was a really hard decision to make since I loved my current job but the offer was just too good to pass up. A family friend offered me the job. No interview...I didn't apply...she just offered it to me so I took it.
This job is part time (so less pay) and I will work from 11:35-3:05. I'm really excited about that. The main reason I took this job is so I could work-part time- and have kids (some day) at the same time while Jonathan is still in grad school and eventually working on his doctorate (he wants to eventually be a professor). I know we don't have kids now but the chances of me finding a job this laid back, with great hours, with me on salary when we actually do have kids is really a long shot so I just decided to go ahead and take it.
It was one of those things I just prayed and prayed about...I really didn't know what to do but then I just felt it was the right decision to make for Jonathan and I.
We're both very excited about it :)

congrats on the new job!! the no interview, no application part sounds wonderful!
OH congrats!! It's actually really hard to find part time work with salary so I think you made the best choice! And if it's going to be a while until you have kids you could even get a just for fun part time job too, like at a coffee shop or something.
congrats!! that's so exciting! what great hours!!
