Searching...

So, as many of you know I am planning to move to the metroplex this summer. The decision was not taken lightly and will be a very big change for the kids and I. Really this is like leaving home for the first time. Also, for the record, I am not moving there just to be close to my parents. While that did play a factor, I am moving for lots of other reasons as well.

All that to say I have applied in 2 districts so far. I am still hoping to be in Kindergarten, but will not be picky. I took today off from school and made the rounds to some schools in the two districts. Its hard to get a good feel for some of the schools, but a three of the four seemed like a great environment.

I also looked at a few houses this weekend. I found several I like, they would just have to be ready to negotiate on the price! They are fairly reasonable for the area though. In the meantime, I need to sell mine here. If you know anyone in the market PLEASE send them my way!

I really believe God is orchestrating this move. I fully believe that when he places you somewhere He will take care of the details, like jobs, houses, and childcare. You can all join in praying for divine connections. I want my resume to jump off the paper at the right people. I have specifically prayed for great coworkers as well. I have been so blessed to have the girls I have right now! You have all become dear friends to me and I will miss you! Also, I really do want my house to sell quickly so we will be free to move forward with another one. Finally, I have been praying for the kids a great place to be during the day while I am at work. They have such a great situation right now so its going to be hard to top. But God only gives the best so the right place is just waiting for my babies! Thank you for joining in these prayer requests...

Running plans...

So a while back I decided it would be fun to run a 5K in the Amarillo March of Dimes.  Quickly it turned into a 10k.  Well, as time has gone on I have really enjoyed running and my marathon plans keep changing.  As of this morning the furthest I had run was 4.5 miles.  Not anymore!  I nearly doubled my longest by running 8.5 miles in 1 hour and 20 minutes!!!  It was so fun.  So, now I've been thinking that in 2 more months of training...could I be ready for a 1/2 marathon?! That totals 13 flippin' miles!!  I never would've thought I'd run anything close to that.  Also, I've decided I'll be joining some others from C town in the OKC Memorial Run in April instead.  We're all going to go down the day before cause the race starts at 6:30 am.  I think it will be very memorable.

Hmmm....decisions, decisions....
