Small Town Girl, In a Big City Whirl.....

This weekend Kelly so generously drove me to Frisco Texas for a job fair on Saturday. It so much fun. Frisco is not the little city I remembered. I had many emotions as we were stuck in traffic on Friday afternoon. I felt excited, amazed, awed, intimidated and many other emotions. I do have to admit that I was excited. We got into Frisco around six in the evening. Kelly has a fantastic sense of direction. She was like super woman in that car just whipping it around to anywhere she wanted to go.

We got there and found our hotel. Then we went to eat at the best mexican restaurant. La Hacinda's. Man did they have the best chicken fajitas. We actually ate there twice. It was that good. After we ate, we found where the high school where i was to go for the job fair. Kelly mentioned that night that maybe i could find my way back to the high school in the morning so she could rest a while. You could have felt the panic rise in the car. But I was determined to do this with the Lord's help.

So in the morning I set out on my own. It was a massive high school. Beautiful and new. I saw my old principal and ran to give her hugs. She just hugged me back. The job fair went very well. I had four interviews (minor) with four different principals. My old principal told me she had my resume on her desk, and that she looked at it every morning. She also said that when all of the letters of intent had been turned in and that all of the internal shuffling had been done, she would be giving me a call. I left feeling pretty confident that I had a really good chance to get a job in about 3 weeks to a month.

I have to say that I did not like selling myself to these principals over and over again. It made me feel awkward. Imagine that, I love to talk. But that was weird. Even though they were very nice. It felt like a cattle sale. So many people, so many tables, so many teachers old and new vying for the same positions. Oh well, God's will be done.

We are close to placing our house on the market. Time is really whizzing by. Wow can you believe that it is already March? Where does the time go?

THANK YOU SO MUCH KELLY FOR TAKING THIS SMALL TOWN GIRL TO THE BIG CITY.
Love ya girl.

I will keep you posted.
