Getting the itch

Spring is springing up all over and the geocaching bug is biting hard. If the stupid trees will stop spitting pollen everywhere so I can breathe again I'll be heading out into the field again soon.

We've got a lot of travel planned this spring and I need to get my geocaching premium membership activated again so I can search along our route as we go. Its that time of year again.

In other life news...

I am quitting my teaching job at Veritas. I decided that teaching in a schoolish environment was too at odds with my unschooling philosophy and I am counting the days until freedom. Three more weeks. Just three. The end is in sight and while I will miss my kids I am SO very ready for it to be over. Ever since my decision was made, my heart just hasn't been in it.

I may be taking a part time desk job to make up the income we'll be losing but its with an organization I am passionate about and my daughter will be able to come along and actually have my attention while I'm working. I think she'll learn some valuable office skills as well. I hope that comes to fruition but if it doesn't there is some reason I'm supposed to not be working right now. It would sure give us more time to geocache. :)
