Starting again....Maybe

Okay, so it's been 6 months since I last blogged. I have a hard time keeping up with a journal, so why did I think a blog would be any different? Hmmm? That's what I thought, no answer. Anyway, here I am trying my hand at it again. Who knows when I'll stop and then start again. On to other things...such as updates.

Let's see...I started doing medical transcription for pay in January. I LOVE it. I truly wish I could quit my day job and do transcription full time. Unfortunately, the company I'm working for at the moment doesn't pay enough. I don't particularly want to work in a hospital/doctor's office setting because I like the flexibility of working from home. Hopefully I'll be able to make something more of it in time to come.


At last blog, I was quite unhappy at my current job. That situation hasn't changed. I'm still unhappy and still get quite annoyed at the people around me. I have recently (~2 weeks ago) put in an application at the school district. There are 2 openings in the district office. Hopefully I will hear something this week about an interview. I would be estatic if I got one of the openings because this office is MUCH closer to my home and would pay more.

God is doing awesome things in mine and Clayton's lives. I am so excited at where He is leading us. Over the last few weeks, Clayton has been feeling that God is calling him to do...something. So, we prayed about it and asked others to pray as well. Clayton finally told me that he feels he is being led to complete his flight training and air mechanics license. From there, we don't know where we'll head, but at least we've got this much. So, almost 2 weeks ago, Clayton went to the place where he earned his private pilot's license and did what it took to get him recertified. My husband can fly by himself again! I've not gone up with him since 2000, so I'm looking forward to going up again. He took his mother up last week and his best friend the day he was recertified. Flying is expensive, so we won't be going a lot, but it's a start.

Clayton will graduate with his Bachelor's (finally) next May. His degree will be in Criminal Justice. And next fall, he will probably start tech school for the air mechanic certificate. It's going to be a loooong few years. My first job in all of this is to try to find scholarships for him. Any ideas on where to look? (If anyone is reading...)

On that note, I'll leave so I'll have something to write about later.

Thanks...he can actually get what he needs in Greenville. My friend's dad is a helicopter pilot for one of the hospitals around here and he recommended Greenville Tech. We aren't feeling led to move out of state to complete his work. (I'm VERY grateful for that right now, too, since I just made RL friends in this area in the last year. I'd hate to leave them now). If we start feeling led to go elsewhere, we'll look into it. :)
