I have applied!

News was finally received regarding the position's announcement at the library in Arkansas. I have sent my application by fax and my vita and cover letter by email. (How nice this digital age can be.) So now it's back to waiting again. The library director was also on vacation for the first 2 weeks of August. She was to return back to work yesterday (Monday, Aug. 18th). Hopefully I will be hearing soon from her asking for an interview.

In the meantime, it has been beneficial to have this summer off because of the transition from Kansas to Arkansas. We have a house, finally. We are now painting, cleaning in Ark. and packing and cleaning in KS. What an overwhelming chore. Now if we could just figure out a move date and actually follow through with it. This has not been the case so far, for a variety of reason, one was my husband's bout with pneumonia! The most recent obstacle has been M's change in his schedule at work.

There have been a plethera of problems to deal with to make this happen: money (always!), timing, help, injuries (I fell) and sickness (M's), bills, and new bills, and some circumstances completely out of our control. There have been blessings as well: God's provisions like a loaned trailer, money from unexpected sources and waiver of other expenses; also help from family and friends with packing, loading, running the stairs, cleaning and painting.

But we're not done yet - not till 'this' fat lady sings. And I ain't singing yet.
