Ready For That Next Chapter...

Well...let's just get caught up on what's been going on the last few months:

I have decided not to go back to school next semester, and this for a number of reasons. First of all, I am not so sure I want to be a teacher. I miss doing hair so much and so I finally sent in for my license. I'm just waiting to schedule my boards. Then I just have to take them, hopefully I'll pass, and then that's it-I'll be a licensed cosmetologist!! The plan is to find a full time job in a salon after this semester is over.
Second, we are planning to move next summer, after Chris graduates. And in order to make that possible, we are going to need to save. So next school year, I will *hopefully* be working full time in order to save up for the move. This will also give the opportunity to truly decided if I want to pursue a career in hair or teaching.
Third, if I decide to do teaching, there's a possibility that the education credits I take here, won't transfer to a school where we are moving. So they would have all been a waste.

So, now that you are probably confused here is our plan.

This summer, I will be working full time in a salon where I will remain for the next year. After Chris graduates in Spring 2011, we will be moving to Alexandria, Kentucky!! Then, Chris will either be going to grad school or law school--whichever he decides!!

I am so ready to be out of Storm Lake and out of Iowa. Growing up I always thought I'd never want to leave. And it breaks my heart to think I will be so far from my family. But I'm so ready for this next chapter, and can't wait to see what God has in store for us.

And who knows!? Maybe a baby Jones will be on the way soon?

Hehehe, I hope!
