I'm not unemployed anymore - I actually have a very fabulous job as a preschool teacher with the University of Michigan child care centers. But I'm still posting, albeit a little more irregularly, and I don't want to ignore the personal progress I've made since starting this blog by renaming it.

Blog inspiration: I read 48 States in 48 Days by Paul Jury in the summer of 2011. It was fabulous...although he planned way less for his roadtrip than I would have. And at the same time, my lovely Anna was constantly reminding me that our lives were awesome, despite the fact that we didn't have job prospects, new cars, boyfriends/husbands, houses, etc., like so many people we knew. So, in an effort to appreciate my life and the crazy uncertainty that it is, I started writing this blog about the little adventures I have. (And by "writing a blog," I mean "making a list" because I make lists, not narratives.) Even if there isn't a BIG adventure that happens every day, I try to find at least one thing to list :)

Kansas City Blues

  • Surprise! Today, I had a Skype interview with the principal of South Middle School in Liberal, Kansas. The interview went pretty well, except for the miscommunication about which time zone we were referencing when we agreed on a 3:00 p.m. call. Before and after the interview, I was flooded with emotion though. Mostly because I have been rolling with the idea that I'd be in Michigan, either in Kzoo or Ypsi/AA/Farmington, for the next year. I've been looking at apartments, figuring out solutions to working and doing Farmington, etc. and this just totally caught me off guard. I need to spend some good time with God in the next few days figuring out what I should do. But I'm thinking not right this second...I'm going to get back in my shorts and tank top and either read HP7 or watch a movie I don't have to think about.
