70/Sunny! Golf weather in SC!

Will is in South Carolina right now. He flew out on Friday to go to a couple of school district job fairs and a scheduled preliminary interview. He's finishing his post-master's administrative endorsement, which means he's in the process of moving from school counselor to school administrator. I'm really proud of how hard he's been working. He never complains and has never been afraid of hard work. Before he left we went to Mr. Mac and bought him his first "real" suit. He has another one but it looks like something the New Kids on the Block wore to the Grammy's in 1988. It's really that bad and not something I would ever let him wear in public. In fact, where is that suit? It's totally going to DI tomorrow.

Anyway, so he left to SC in his first suit on Friday and had his interviews yesterday. He called me afterwards to inform me that at the first school district he visited, the superintendent was LDS! What a coincidence! Needless to say, Will instantly had a connection with this superintendent and got the attention of a few of the administrators that were there just because he was chumming it up with the superintendent. Great job rubbing elbows, sweetheart!

At the next school district, where his interview was, he says that he was fully prepared and really aced his interview. The lady who interviewed him already mentioned a second interview!

So, nothing set in stone yet but things are looking good for a summer move cross-country. I'm already thinking of all the things we need to do to prepare the house to sell. (Getting ahead of myself a little here but I'm just so excited!) Just think, I could be playing tennis and golf year round! And not too mention the road races! Take me home, country roads!

Make sure you give us plenty of time to get get together for a "last hurrah" before you go! Hope everything works out just like you want it too!!!

I'm defintely happier that you ended up Romney that Huckabee. I am scared of that man!

South Carolina sounds wonderful and I bet it would be nice for you to be closer to the WV family.

That's exciting Will did so well at his interviews! I know what it's like to want to go back home to your roots. Whatever happens, good luck! We love you!
