I know...Hey, Linda... congrats on the retirement... I know you are going to enjoy at least the next couple of months... like you said, it may feel like vacation. But ifyou need a part time job, have you considered becoming a substitute teacher? Schools need good substitutes badly. subs don't have to plan lessons... they follow the plan written by teachers. There is training for subs. And you can turn down any offer, work at your own convenience. It's a thought! It's different, you;ll be involved with kids, in the learning process.
