Another Teaching Fair

Today, we attended the job fair at the University of New Mexico. There were far fewer attendees than there were at Fort Collins, which was good, but we still didn't get very far. We continue to hear the same thing... state budgets have not been released, thus none of the districts can make any moves. Many of the people we spoke to today say it could be mid- or even late-summer before they hire. It's frustrating, but we knew it wouldn't be easy.

Other than job stress, things are all good. We are holed up in the La Quinta quite a bit because of the dogs, but we are thinking of a mini road trip up a stretch of the old Hwy 66, just to get out for a while. Should make for a few interesting photos.

LUV U TOO!!! We'll be fine - a little frustration never killed anyone. I'll be happy when we can get into the cabin and out of the La Quinta - I am starting to get ancy!

Thanks Bri! We have to catch up soon - there's so much to talk about... ridiculous interview questions being just one of the many topics. :) Where does your dad stay here? Have you been here yet? I LOVE this town!
