Now What?????

Okay, so a lot of you already know because of Facebook or Twitter... but I passed the two tests that TX has required me to take in order to get a permanent Teaching Credential (I got a one year just for having my CA credential)
I had to get a 240 on each test and I got 280 and 276... so I passed with flying colors :) Yay!
WELL... now what???? I sit and wait and HOPE that GOD will BLESS me with a full time TEACHING JOB!!!
In the meantime, I am also looking for other full time jobs. Since I have sent out 16 resumes to schools and I have not gotten one phone call for an interview, I'm not so sure this is the year I will get to teach full time. (Which truly breaks my heart) I know that I can NOT do another year of subbing and waitressing. Not only is it too hard on me physically, but I don't get any sleep when I am doing them back to back, and it doesn't allow me to have any social life.
I've been here since August 30th of last year... so ALMOST a year now... and I can count the number of friends I have one one hand.
I cry often because I am so far away from most of the people I love. Going home was such a blessing and a curse. I loved getting all the hugs and everyone telling me they missed me (phew!) and that they had been praying for me all year (thank you again!!!)! But when I came back to TX, it made it even more evident that I don't have friends or a support system that compares to home. And not that I expect to have the same amount from 11 months compared to 20 years, but I definitely am not used to having this little in both departments.
Anyway, enough of the pity party. Just pray for PATIENCE while I wait for GOD'S TIMING and HIS PLAN for my life to unfold. Anyone who knows me, knows that patience is not my best virtue.
Love and miss you all like crazy!!!!

I do pray that things will come together this year. I was thinking the same thing: now what? Continue to wait on God and His timing. It is hard. But hang in there. You'll be blessed.
