Getting Established

I dont know what else to call this blog, but that's probably not worth my time thinking about it. So it has been quite a while since we last posted, hopefully the only time we wait this long to update. We have made our move to North Carolina; we are currently staying with a family who are friends of Katy's family during the week and we have been going back to Charlotte on the weekends to my Mom's house. I am attending school at GTCC (Guilford Tech) and I am already on my third week of classes. My classes are split up into separate subjects as they relate to the General Course for Maintenance school. I have finished up the first subject which is called Forms and Records (all the paperwork associated with being an Aircraft Mechanic); I have made a perfect grade (100) on all my work and tests so far. I have made a lot of friends in my class, and have been probably been deemed "Mr. Valedictorian" of my program. It is definitely a strange fit to attend community college after already graduating from a 4 year university, but I do enjoy the diversity of the class. I have even learned how to solve the Rubix Cube during our lunch break (one of the classes only creative escapes that we have had). Pretty nerdy, I know.
We really have put ourselves in a position to totally depend on God. We have received many blessing thus far, from friends and family supporting us and we Thank you all immensely. I have started to see some light shining on job possibilities which has probably been the toughest part about the move. I have always left one job for another, but I have never left a job to the unknown especially moving somewhere foreign and trying to find a job. I have made connections at the college and have been put on as a part time simulator instructor. It is more of a sporatic on call position, but we will see how it pans out. It is definitely a foot in the door for future openings at the college. Just today, I had my first official interview, and I will most likely taking a job at a local grocery store chain. I have a couple of leads on Flight Instructor positions, but it is definitely a tough field to get into when you need a position in a specific location. There is definitely some possible openings in the future. Please pray that Katy and I might find the right job position. We are trying to get into an apartment very soon, we are still waiting out the best deal and trying to figure out how our finances will align with that. Please pray for our continued dependence on God, and opportunities to develop relationships for the sake of the Gospel.
