So Good news all around- I got the part time job in Libertyville, just north of chicago, that will provide me with a free apartment. I also have an interview set with another company for another part time job. Am praying GOd continues to lead me where he wills....
I am also now LEGAL again and can drive. They extended the emissions and I am officially valid again, and my car registration is updated, and I have insurance (I find great joy in small things!)
I dont have orientation until the 26th which leaves me some extra time with family.
My newest deal: facebook on the internet. Its facinating to catch up with people I haven't talked to in years and wouldn't otherwise have a way to trace! Some are now married with new last names, with kids etc.... Its great!!

Sat- looks like Chicago
First of all my driver's license: Apparently while I was away they sent an emissions notice and in the state of chicago they can apparently suspend your license if you dont have it tested!! So I spent hours on the phone figuring out who to contact (believe it or not even the local police departments in a nameless suburb in Chicago couldn't tell me who to go to in order to figure out why it was suspended-that doesn't make any sense to me). Finally got it figured out, explained my out of the country situation and they gave me an extension. I should be legal by now, will check it later today.
In the meantime I had interviews on Monday in Chicago so mom drove me out. Despite complaints of traffic she had a good time. The interviews went well and I should know by middle of next week. Its just a part time job but offers a free apartment in exchange for some 'oncall' time, which would leave my day open to another part time job.
I also got to see my two godsons; jayden and josiah. Jayden is almost walking now and has a crazy head of hair. Josiah is talking very well and I can't believe what a big boy he is!! Six months during the life of a child under four is ALOT of change!
My newest time filler: facebook. Its addicting trying to track down old friends. If only my internet connection were better I could upload more pictures.
Anyways, so Im back in Iowa, just waiting for the green light , and if I dont get it IM back to square one in the job search!! God is good right?
Verse for today is from Galatians: I will boast in nothing but the blood of Christ. Really I see so many people trying to find their worth or purpose in their relationships, in their career, in their 'stuff', in their activities....but really it boils down to one thing: discipleship with Christ. All else in meaningless, just take atrip around the world and it will set it in stone for ya.
Have a great weekend!!

Kink in the plans...
Sooo after having a good time with Meg and Matt again (thanks for the hairdo meg) we hit a snaffooo. I am scheduled to be in CHicago On monday for some interviews, with the plan to drive on Sunday. However it was discovered that my drivers license is legally suspended!!! I had no idea.
