Decisions

So, I have to make a decision and I don't know what to do. There is a job opening in Ardmore at one of the middle schools. It would be perfect for me because dad lives there, it would be closer to Cash, it would be closer to my friends that are all in/or will be in Texas after May and it would be a bigger program with just middle school. All thoughts are positives. Now the negatives... I really like it here, I feel like I would be abandoning the kids and all the plans I have for next year. I haven't said a word about leaving and I don't think the program would survive another director change. Plus it'd be way far away from mom. I haven't even applied, I don't know if I should. What if they call me back for an interview and I go and they offer me the job. I don't even know if I really want the job but it gets me closer to family and friends. BAH! I planned on staying here for a few years but always keeping an ear to the ground for openings like this and now there is one but I'm not certain I'm ready to go yet. I was planning on making the move after or around the time Cash graduates. I know it will be hard to leave but I know that we had always talked about me moving back. If I moved to Ardmore it would be closer to his family too. I feel like I've finally started to make a difference here. I have kids that were going to quit next year thinking about coming back which is HUGE and I know of two kids that would be devastated if I left. I also feel like I should stay for my resume. If I leave everywhere I go people will ask why I only stayed for a year and while I will tell them it was because I was a little overwhelmed running a full program by myself and that move offered me a chance to be closer to family, they will always have questions and skepticism because you only leave after the first year if it's horrible, you're horrible or they didn't want you back. I feel like I'm making a mistake if I don't apply though. HELP.

House!

We put in an offer on the house yesterday! You can see what it looks like: http://www.sellmd.com/ClientPropertyDetails?ls=MRIS&pid=BC6965941&search_id=1280802387&show_virtual_tour=yes&show_description=yes&show_address=yes. We're so excited :o) Hopefully I'll find out today whether or not they accepted our offer. It's really, really scary though. We will definitely have a guest bedroom, so you can stay as long as you want!
