Interview Day!

I have my first interview today for a school in Gilbert, AZ!

I know everyone says that it is too far away from family, but I think it would be a great opportunity for Matt and me.

The interview is via skype. I have only used skype once, so it'll be interesting.

My stepmom says that everything happens for a reason. I know she's right, but I'd really like to be offered the job.

The two people I have talked to on the phone seem really nice which is always a good sign.

If I do get the job I know I won't be in Arizona forever. I totally want to raise my kids out here in CA close to family and friends. I can't imagine having a family of my own and not seeing my relatives all the time. Yesterday I went to a family birthday party for Matt's side of the family and the whole time I was thinking, "How can I leave them? Priscilla is going to forget all about me." I guess I really just can't think about the negatives though. Gilbert really isn't THAT far away. If I get the job and accept it, I promise to come home every other month. A couple years in AZ won't hurt us. If anything it'll help us grow, I think.

Anyway, I am nervous about today. Gilbert seems like a really nice place to live though, from the research I have done. The school I am applying for seems like they expect a lot from their students and seems very involved with families, which is something I really like.

Prayers are appreciated.

EEK... here we go!
