Thread: I'm Going Back to Work (I Think)

Tweet

I retired a year and a half ago after 35 years in the construction business. We moved from Wa back to CO. At first I relished not having to get to work every day. I played, worked on our new home, Etc.....after six months I found myself totally bored.
I volunteered to help as a supervisor on a Habitats for Humanity home and that led to a volunteer stint with our school districts building trades program this school year. I graduated college in '72 with a teaching degree in secondary ed. yet never taught a day of school, in talking with a couple of the instructors during our initial training in Aug for the volunteer program I was urged to get my teaching creds updated and apply for a position as an instructor. Seems the district has several positions to fill next year and not enough qualified applicants.
So, I went back to school in Sept, I need to take 30 hrs of courses offered between this past Sept to July. Then I apply to the state for a teaching certificate.
Not bored anymore what with the volunteer work and school...now it seems I don't have enough time in the day
