i used to be at school until 7pm, every night (teaching kindergarten in watts), but finally woke up to what it was doing to my health and my 9-year-old daughter's well-being. i took "substitute leave of absence," and am never going back! it's like being a grandparent--you get to do the fun part, leave planning, assessments, and "professional development" to the register-carrying teachers.


of course, this left me with a financial deficit, but i found something that more than fills in the gaps, which is network marketing with a reputable company that distributes a phenomenal wellness product that changes people's lives. now i have the flexibility to take time off when i wish to, and travel regularly with my daughter.--and i still get to teach, only now it's fun.
