@Lifesnotfair - Thanks, I am glad to be done my practicum; I really enjoy teaching and working with the students but the practicum is set up like an extended test so it is very stressful.
@Crockett - No problem.
@Hdbiker (Gary) - Much appreciated
@Ncbeardguy (Rick) - Thank you for the compliment. I am starting to be able to relax now. Once I finish up turning in marks, I have a couple of weeks before the next semester of course work starts.
@Ridjobradi & PBarto - Thanks gentlemen; your beards are looking top notch, as well.
@LateBloom - Thanks. Overall, I'm really happy with my current beard length and style right now. In regards to hiring on for teaching, I'll be applying to districts in the area. This is for a TOC (substitute teacher) position. This is the first step in moving up the teaching ladder.
