AT A CROSSROADS

I have to make a decision soon. I've been offered a temporary job in a good local school system, filling in for a teacher on maternity leave. If the teacher returns as planned, I'll be back on the streets by December 14th.

Not now. I have to decide whether to take a short-term job, and risk losing out on a full-time job if one opens up, or, to risk not working at all.

I'm leaning toward taking the job. After all, a bird in the hand...

But, it's keeping me up nights.
