Okay, so I've been tossing and turning over what I need to get my masters' degree in. I teach, but for some reason it isn't gratifying enough and the after-school work is enough to drive anyone nuts after a long time. I am starting to wonder if my husband knows my name.
Originally I thought I'd get my degree in educational psychology and then work at an area school district or co-op. After talking to the SP at our school, though, she recommended I do clinical psychology or possibly social work - it pays more.
I mentioned to Jeff that if I go for CP or SW I will stop teaching after next year. He wants me to go for it, but then he's sort of worried about the future - if he'll make enough money to offset my pay decrease, and he is starting to think about having kids (not sure if he threw that one in there to get me to reconsider my plans - he knows how much I want to have kids!)
So I don't know what to do. Part of me just wants to let life settle down and "stay the course" for a while, but part of me wants to hurry the heck up and get my masters' for the pay increase, stay teaching as long as I feel like it, then do whatever, whenever. Hm.
