Monday Morning

So it's Monday. Just another Monday. Or is it?

I have so much to do and not much time to do it. Such is the way of life sometimes. Since securing my latest contract, my life has yet again shifted into high gear. I have to meet with my recruiter today to fill out paperwork before I leave town next Monday. I'm also meeting with an attorney later this week. I have to pack and clean my house and the list goes on and on.

Regardless of that, I'm excited. Really excited. Excited and a bit overwhelmed because I have no idea what Alaska is going to be like. The coolest bit of this adventure is that I'm not just going anywhere in Alaska, but to part of the interior more west and north than I've ever been in my life. I'll be working and living in a small town 340 miles away from Anchorage. From what I keep reading, it's only accessible by river or air. The population of the town is only 6000 and has only 10 miles of roads total! If you'd like to know more read this:

That's where I'm going! Woo hoo!

Now, if I could just get my head to stop spinning out of control, all would be well. I keep thinking about the hospital, the lab, and the people. I am really excited about going, but boy do I have questions.

Is my cell phone going to work?
Will I have Internet access? at work? at home?
What will my roommate be like?
What will I do when I'm not working?
What's the weather like?
Where am I going to get food?
Do they have a gym? a library?

I suppose it doesn't do me any good to think about these things, but I can't help myself! I'm just too damn excited and thrilled to be going. Granted, it did sort of mess up my other plans, but oh well. Everything is always changing and you gotta just roll with it. My family and friends are super supportive of this latest adventure and for that I am grateful. Thank goodness for frI can't believe this opportunity crossed my path.

So....Just another Monday? I think not. Today is my last Monday in NM for a while.
