One Devastated Teacher...Can't Go to Japan

      Well, one reason I started this blog was because my family was scheduled to go to Japan this month for 2 1/2 years.  My husband is in the U.S. Navy so we all supposed to move as a family.  My family was uprooted from Florida to move to California for 4-5 months to prepare for the move.  Just a couple of weeks ago, I learned that I was "denied" to move to Japan because of my asthma.  I was quite devastated because I left a job that I loved to support my husband overseas.  Now he is going to Japan alone and my daughter and I are going to be moving back east, but not to our "home city" (because our house is being rented for 2 years).  Instead we are going to be staying in a small town (near Pensacola) where most of our family lives.  After my husband returns, hopefully we can all return home.
      The good news is that I have some new job prospects--one is a possible return to the classroom and the other is working for a virtual school.  I would love to do either one and will let you know... In the meantime, my daughter and I have to prepare to move across country.  I dread saying goodbye (for now) to my husband, but I know this is going to be a great experience for him.  I will definitely fly over to visit him later this year.
