My life seems to be basically consumed with the "where am I now" concept and figuring out what I'm going to be doing and where I'll be in the next 4 months. As for a little update, right now things are slowly, but surely progressing. As I've said before, this whole transition is about timing. I went on an interview two weeks ago and I felt like it was a very productive interview. The man who interviewed me gave me some really helpful tips in regards to how to get my foot in the door if I want to go from elementary school counseling to high school counseling. If nothing comes out of that interview and I don't get hired for that county, I can honestly say, the interview was just what I needed to move forward in a positive direction. Everything happens for a reason and every experience teaches us a valuable lesson if we look for those lessons.
I have chosen a property manager to manage the renting of my townhouse and I'm basically just in the process of getting all the paperwork filled out and submitted. I will do all of that this weekend.
Another opening came up for a school counseling position two days ago, so I applied to that last night. I also reached out to a few friends who are in other counties and forwarded them my resume in case they knew of any openings as well.
I'm a little more relaxed about everything and my boss is being extremely supportive in all of this so I am truly blessed! My sister also inspired me the other day to stop assuming something isn't going to work out before I even try. I needed that because despite the fact that I oftentimes have crazy faith, sometimes it waivers when I need most.
....oh and those plans to move to Cali or Texas are now going to be placed on hold. That's a huge move that I am not prepared to execute in such short notice. I'll revisit that dream in about 2 years and go from there. I'm not abandoning the thought, just deferring it.
