We won't be homeless! (:

                     

We have good news! There is a place behind the church that is available for us to stay this next month! It's so cool to see the way God provides for our needs and comforts us during the waiting period and gives us peace! Waiting in the unknown even though I know God has it under control is so hard for me! I like to know what the plan is, prepare myself for what's next, and have time to process it all before it becomes a reality.. I'm not very good with last minute drastic changes.. But maybe after this Alaskan adventure and Gods help, I will be able to handle it a bit better and get used to it! :)
Along the lines of drastic change.. (Haha) we talked about the idea of me (Megan) working... But thought it might be good to get used to life up here and wait until we move to the place we will be staying "permanently" and settle in there before I got a job! With all the moves, packing and unpacking over and over again, it might be hard learning a new job at the same time! The thought seemed a bit overwhelming! 
So with that said, just this afternoon, Daniel came home for lunch with some news! He said how his work was in need of a dispatcher... How Jael was leaving soon so someone would need to be trained before she left.. And if I want the job.. I would start tomorrow! Ahhhh! One part of me was like, PRAISE GOD! I eventually wanted a job and this one just got thrown at me! But the timing seemed so off! The hard part is, it's not really a job that people said they'd recommended! 
As the day goes on, I am feeling more of a peace about it and I'm feeling up for the challenge! :) Daniel said If I do choose to work there and I don't think it's the job for me, I can freely quit! So I think..why not at least try? We will see how it goes! I may end up loving it!! Plus..there are not a lot of job opportunities here so I can't be too picky! :)
There are several pros to working there: 
1) I will get to work with Daniel! (..and like he said..I will be able to boss him around) haha! ;)
2) I will meet and get to know people a lot better!
3) Having a second income will be helpful since it is so expensive to live here! :) 
4) Daniel already knows the job so he can help me out, give me advice, and he'll have my back!
5) A friend encouraged me that we will be able to understand and have conversations that we probably wouldn't of had otherwise if I didn't work there! I will know terms, people, how things should go, what plane he is talking about, and schedules! So if one of us has a bad day at work we will understand better what that person is talking about and how they feel! Because right now, Daniel will come home and share about his day.. and sometimes I get kind of lost! :)
So with that said, I hopefully will get a good nights sleep, fight off this cold that is trying to take over, and learn a lot about a new job in the morning!
We love you all!

  1. Yay! I'm glad to know that PTA won't be having its first hobos. ;) I was going to suggest you guys could live under the dry creek bridge, but that could have been wet. Praying you adjust to the new job. (Don't let those ground crew guys get out of control)
