So today it feels like moving to Arizona may actually happen for the following reasons:
1. The final nail in the coffin of my current job was hammered in yesterday as I got the official word I will be reassigned to an itinerant ESL position for the fall.
2. I talked to Jess, whose enthusiasm for our potential move to Arizona is contagious, and who is working very hard to get us jobs and a house out there.
3. My best friend got a job in Kenosha, meaning Racine would be a halfway point for her and her husband and they would want to rent our house! Obviously this would take off a ton of pressure for us in terms of getting it ready to put on the market, selling it, etc. Plus I would still own my adorable house that I'm in love with, and it would be filled with a family that I love!
4. I got my transcripts from Rockford, which will be necessary in the job application process, and for which I was going to have to call and bust some heads if I did not receive today.
5. I am over the demise of my former job and excited about the opportunities that may lie ahead of us. Everything doesn't seem quite so daunting anymore.
