seriously. it happened, again?
Can someone please remind me, no kick me, really hard, if I ever say “This job is a perfect fit”. Last week, I received a call from a principal at a local elementary school. The message went something like this; Hello, this is XXX from XXX. Letting me know there is a position available. I…

And we often discuss when and how we are going to use it. It’s either an inground pool or an upgrade to replace my 2012 Honda minivan. Not sure.)
Other than that, I’m still searching. I’m still agonizing over what I really want to do, what I am qualified to do. I’m still wondering where my 20+ career experience in leadership and my business education matters. And I really want to know where I can make a difference.
So here’s a little play by play on how it’s going.
