FAQ

My first real post back is an update! Here are some frequently asked questions I receive from people:

Where are you living now a days?
In Pittsburgh! I now live in the city on the Northside which, crazy enough, is called that because it is the north side of the city! It is a definite change from the eastern suburbs where I was, but I have really liked it! I must say I am becoming more and more of a city person. Or I like to think I am. I still geek out like a tourist when I'm downtown. Probably not the coolest "city person" thing to do...

With who, may I ask?
I now live with two girls my age. I have mutual friends with one of them, which was how we were connected as one girl who needed another roommate and one girl who needed a place to live! They are way cooler than I am, but still seem to like me, so that's good! 

Are you still teaching at the same school?
Indeed! I am in the middle of my third year (whaaaat?!) of teaching 2nd grade. I still love it so, so much! My school and kiddos rock :)

Any plans of heading back to the Midwest?
I have literally no idea what my future plans are. I have been taking each year as it comes, working to follow God's leading. At the moment I am really enjoying where I am at. Not sure what God has in store for me, but I'm working and learning to simply trust.

How have you been since Julia moved away?
I cry every night into my pillow and sleep with her picture.

Not really. Though I do miss her and her husband Peter like crazy! I will admit it was rough at first to "start" again on my own, but God has really provided for me in ways I could have never predicted. Though nothing will ever really compare to living with your best friend for 2 years.

I think that hits all the major bullet points. I can really sum it all up with this--I continue to be blessed far more than I ever deserve! Even on the tough days, I have to remember how God has brought me here, exactly where He wants, to do something I love to do. So very awesome!
