New Adventures

Well Matt and I are back in Home Sweet Home: aka-Sunny Arizona. It took me two weeks of checking want ads, searching Career Builder every hour and countless interviews to find a position I excepted. I thought God had everything worked out for me before I even arrived home. There was a great residential clinic that was looking at me, I already had two phone interviews and they were just waiting on me to move back so I could come and visit the facility. I finally got home and made the call and found out enrollment was down so they were on a hiring freeze - Geez God, what am I suppose to do now? Start looking again? Dont you know Matt is in school and not not getting a job? Dont you know we just bought a townhome that is being renovated? Everything seemed to be off. I started looking around and jumping at every interview I could get. I am glad I came to my senses and decided I needed to give this job search back over to God. I turned down two job offers (which I have NEVER done before) because it just did not feel right. I start my new job tomorrow!!!! I am a therapist/counselor for New Arizona Family, Inc. (NAFI). I will be working with dual diagnosis/substance abuse clients in Tempe. They are mostly court-ordered so they are not happy or willing really to be seeing me. I have not worked with this population and dont have a lot of experience. I am basically just trusting God that this is where He wants me for now. I wanted to give the update because I am sure a lot of my blogs after tomorrow will probably be about the adventure I am about to start!!! :-)
