Difficult decision...

I have a decision to make soon. I am currently on a 2 year leave-of-absence from my elementary aide position. I took the time off so I could return to college to get my teaching license (I already have a BA in Child Development and 10+ years experience as an aide) which I received in May.

So, here's my dilemma.... I have had NO luck in even getting an interview (not just me ~ I've talked to several others in the same boat!). So, do I return to my aide's job where I earn more than I can subbing (which we know is not a sure thing daily anyway) or do I bite the bullet and try to sub as much as possible and hope I make a good impression somewhere there will be an opening soon? And for the record .... the school district I am currently employed at hired 4 teachers in my license area last year (before I had my license) and there will be no more retiring for several years.

I'm leaning toward going back to my aide's job, but I still feel conflicted!

Here's a quote for today:

Opening Doors

When one door of happiness close, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.
