If all things work out properly, in a few weeks, I will be packing my life and moving to another country for a year. I've accepted a teaching position in the Middle East and I've been having mixed feelings about it since June. By now, I could have had my house packed and my ticket in hand but I hesitated for a few reasons. Now I'm rushing to get things done. I am still working at my home school as if nothing will change for me.
I'm overwhelmed with the amount of paperwork and money it takes to travel overseas. I wish I had known how much I needed just to visit the doctor and get a health certificate. That was a shock to me and my bank account. Since I waited til the last minute to get things done, I'm not sure if I will be able to leave when scheduled. My emotions are all over the place! I'm excited, nervous, scared, and whatever other emotions one can have when on the verge of taking a major step in their live.
As my journey progresses I'll keep whoever reads this updated and from time to time ask for prayers and words of encouragement. Maybe even a care package or two.
When I finish my paperwork I will let you know.
