Job news

I got a job at the American International School in Egypt. Jordan met with the principal and they went over the contract. He should be emailing me with more details, but it basically is a job with all the perks. The school will pay for a furnished/unfurnished apartment. Jordan said the school has an auditorium/stage, a classroom for me (no more teaching on the stage), orff instruments, textbooks and a beautiful campus. These are things that Florida doesn't even have! There will be a bus that will take me to work which is nice not to have to take a taxi! I am so excited. I will give more details as they come. I will also take pictures over spring break. Jordan and I are planning to travel to Cairo, Alexandria, and Beirut.

Couple Thousand Miles Away

Jordan is in Lebanon, soon to be back in Cairo and then off to Malta. He is gone for 18 days....18 days of torture. The funny thing is we dated long distance, got engaged long distance, and when we got married in the summer, it was the longest we had seen each other face to face. I have gotten so used to having him around. It's funny the transition we have to go through when he comes home. I get used to taking out the trash, the dishes, paying bills, gasing up the cars, grocery shopping, carrying the groceries up stairs. Then Jordan comes home and I jump everytime he turns a corner. It is pretty hilarious. I have screamed bloody murder just because I saw a relfection in a mirror of him walking by. Despite all the transistion and the lonliness of having him not here, it is all God's plan. I couldn't be more proud of what he is doing. I told Jordan before we got married that I don't want to be the one to stand in the way of what God had planned for him. I love that God is giving us an opportunity to serve like this.
