The best thing that could have happened to me today happened. Mattie and I were leaving the house so I could take her to Gramma's house, enabling Jay V and I to drive to Willoughby to enjoy the Matinee double feature Grindhouse. When we walked outside there it was the box with my returned Master's Portfolio. This time it was in on the first day "Early Birds" were accepted, which was the 2nd. Some of you may remember a mailing mix-up from back in December, that prevented this from being accomplished. I have my 30 Post Bachelor's credit hours, but had not confirred my actual degree. These 30 hours at least made me eligible for a continuing contract with Ashtabula Area City Schools, but not for the pay raise you receive with a Master's degree. More importantly, I had put a lot of work into it and it stunk not to be able to say I had my MA. Plus the worries that something would change with requirements from last winter to this spring. Alas, that is all behind me now. Here is a photo of my portfolio.
I will try and spend more time on Grindhouse tomorrow, as for now Karen is waiting for me to finally watch The Pursuit of Happyness.
