Hey Everyone!
Well Edgar and I are off on another adventure! We are moving to Fort Nelson, BC for two months. Here's how it all came about:
Last year I had an interview with the Fort Nelson school division and was offered a job last June. I turned it down and went to Dubai. I went to a career expo in January and reconnected with the guy who interviewed me. He remembered me and told me to resubmit my resume. So I sent them my resume and didn't think much about it.
On Monday I received an e-mail from Diana at the board office. She said that there was a kindergarten teacher going on emergency medical leave and was wondering if I would like to be considered for the position. It is only teaching .8 of the time so only 4 days a week and subbing on the fifth day so I was a little leery. I asked her some questions and on a whim said to consider me. That was on Wednesday. Today I got a call saying that I had the position and when was the soonest that I could get there.
They are paying for all travel expenses and accommodations. I am going to be rooming with a fellow teacher. I start work on Tuesday and I am a MIXTURE OF EMOTIONS! I am excited/scared/happy/nervous/everything lol. So I will make sure to keep you posted on our journey to the west coast. Have a fantastic day and I will try to stop shaking haha.

Um... just so you know, Fort Nelson isn't really anywhere near the coast - there is at least one mountain range between you and the ocean if not 2... Good thing they don't teach much geography in kindergarten ;-)
LOL well thank goodness I have friends like you who can help me with my lack of geography skills. I guess that I should have said I was heading west and left it at that. :)
