Change is in the Air

and most of the changes scare me! :) I've been neglecting my blog for the last few weeks but all for good reason. After much persistence on the part of our loan officer and realtor, we finally signed the papers to our house last Friday and are hoping to get the keys tomorrow (hopefully...because i'm starting to bring my breakable things over tomorrow, so i better have keys!). We are so excited to have space and a less cluttered looking house. I am nervous that we might have scorpions which i have never had before. Luckily my sweet husband went out and bought some heavy duty bug spray-gallon size, and a black light. I told him he has to be the one to look and kill them at night, otherwise I will have nightmares..much like the one I had Monday after going scorpion hunting for the first time with my father-in-law at his house Sunday night. I couldn't sleep all night and dreamt that there were scorpions on or near me-ah!

I also interviewed and got hired by the Gilbert School District to be an SLP next year but had an interview with the only open school in the district for the position yesterday and I really felt intimidated and as though I wasn't smart enough to do the job. I just got an email from the Mesa District saying they are hiring SLP's, but I already told gilbert I would work for them (no contract yet though)...so what do I do? I am tossing and turning over where I should be next year and where I would have the most support until I feel like I have a better sense of the routine and what I am doing.

With moving, comes a new ward. We have absolutely loved the ward we were in, but we had a large variety of people from different aspects of life-most were older and had several kids or lived in 500,000+ dollar homes. I especially am nervous about moving to a new area where I know no-one but I am praying that we will establish close friendships in the new ward. I haven't mentioned yet, I hate changes.

Hopefully the next post will include us with our house!
