I finished putting together Sarah's high school transcript this afternoon. It was satisfying looking back over the last few years, and gathering all the information together. Next week they get the two boosters they need for college, and they'll spend some time preparing for the meeting with the admissions counselor, and by the end of the week (knock wood) they should be registered for their first college class.

Next week I also have my first tutoring gig since... maybe two years ago? I'm tutoring a past student of mine in writing their college application essay. Like most of my tutoring gigs, it came out of the blue. I'm considering hanging out my shingle officially, once Sarah's settled into their new semester. I also think about doing something like virtual personal assistant gigs. I enjoy administrative work and taking capture lists and turning them into bite sized tasks, and I *really* enjoy the idea of a job that I never have to think about when I'm not on the clock.

We really need me to start bringing in money soon -- this has been a very expensive year in terms of teeth and trees and taxes. But we're also relying on my flexible schedule for things like running errands, dealing with repair people, driving Sarah places (yes, they will be learning to drive this year, but that will take time, and we will still only be a one car household)... Something part-time a/o work from home would be a good compromise.
