| | Wow has it been awhile. I think I've fallen off the planet when it comes to writing anything when it comes to my thoughts lately. But actually, some very exciting things have been happening in my life and I have some big changes on the way fairly soon.
Back in late February or early March, Kelly and I decided that we wanted to move back home. It seemed like trips back home just weren't enough. We were always running around and could never just settle down. So we prayed about the situation and since then, God has blessed us far beyond anything we deserve. Kelly got a job back at the school she used to teach at in Grand Island. She'll be teaching fifth grade, which is the same class she taught her first year of teaching when they were second graders. Then during our trip home over Easter, we made plans to visit the bank about a loan and maybe look at a few homes with a realtor. We ended out getting a home in Grand Island that weekend and are very excited about settling down.
One piece of the puzzle that was still up in the air was where I would go. Opportunities in meteorology are few and far between in central Nebraska. So I decided I was going to head back to school to finish my teaching degree. So I applied to UNK to get a second bachelors degree. I was hesitant and a little scared about it, because I know I could do it, but not my passion in life. About a month ago, I put in my letter of resignation to my boss, so they could get somebody hired to replace me early. In the process, she asked me if I wanted her to send an e-mail to the news director in Hastings who she knew. So I said sure. Sure enough, a day later he wrote back saying he had an opening he was going to post that afternoon. So I sent a tape along with my resume and cover letter. A few days later, after a conversation, he offered me the job. I didn't even have to interview. So I'll be working weekends in June as the weekend meteorologist. It's a step down from where I am now, but we are excited to be back home and I'm doing what I really enjoy.
I truly know that this was straight from God, because it couldn't have worked out any better. So we'll be moving at the end of May and maybe we can finally settle down for a long period of time.
