Missing Macedonia


I've gotten a little "home sick" for Macedonia the past few days. I miss my friends that I made and all the sights and sounds of the big city. Don't get me wrong, I love my little town and the quiet, but some times I just want to be around a mass of people and just watch them interact without participating. I loved the cafes around center. I could get a cup of coffee and just sit and watch everyone around me. I also miss walking around the Bit Bazaar and Old Town. Hearing the mingling of languages and the smells of the produce. I miss walking down the old uneven cobblestone streets and looking in all the store windows. The Kale on the hill over looking the town and the steps down to the Vardar, where I would sit and watch the people cross over on the old stone bridge. The best part was that I could walk anywhere in town or take the bus if I got tired.

Job Opening

I've been substituting in the Fall River school district for about 4 years now. I really like this school district, the teachers, and administration. In January I found out that one of the first grade teachers was retiring. I talked with the principal about the job and have been looking for the job posting so I could apply for it. Today, it was finally posted, and the application deadline in next Monday the 24th. I've sent out my application packet this afternoon. Please pray that I get this job.
