Accepting-I think YES!!!

Wow!!!!  That is about all I can say.  Next fall I could be teaching science in Toksook Bay, Alaska. ALASKA!?!?! How I got to this point seems so surreal.  I always thought it would be AWESOME to teach in Alaska, I just never in my wildest dreams thought it might actually happen.  I always had Alaska on the backburner in my mind, so at a job fair I handed in my resume and talked to someone for like 20 minutes.  Next thing I know the superintendent is contacting me!!!  Now I am trying to decide whether or not I want to accept the offer to teach in Toksook Bay.  They want me of all people!!! This is a dream come true (I think), and I know God played a major role in this.  Without him I can almost guarantee I would not be trying to make the decision I am now.  I mean this just kinda fell into my lap, with almost no work on my part.  How can I say NO??? I know God put this in my path for a reason, and I plan to follow it.  He would never give me anything I couldn't handle.   I am so EXCITED and NERVOUS for this upcoming crazy adventure that is part of my life.  Craziness is just how I roll.  What would life be if not for the crazy adventures???  This is what takes you to places you never dreamed of, or makes you do things that you will laugh about later :) What an INCREDIBLE experience this will be.  For at least 1 year I will be living on my own out in bush Alaska.  They have a clinic, running water, electricity, a runway, and a general store.  What else could a girl need???  This is my dream, and most think I'm crazy. But like I mentioned earlier CRAZINESS is just a part of my life.  It's the part that keeps me on my toes, constantly wondering what's next???  I know I will accept this offer on Monday, but I just can't do it until I come back to reality.  (Is this real life???)
