I've posted here about daughter and husband interviewing for international teaching jobs. They've accepted, and are going to....Turkmenistan, where they will be employed as teachers in the International School there. This country is located between Afghanistan and Iran on the Caspian Sea. They are going. My reading says it is subject to possible terrorist threats to Americans, even schools, so forieigners should be wary of this. Healthcare is not good either.
I wanted to call my daughter this morning and throw a fit! After viewing the school website, along with a video fo the actual school, it looks pretty good, actually. And their housing will be provided. They will have the three summer months off with paid airfare home.
After viewing this, I calmed down a bit, and did call my daughter, telling her of my concerns for healthcare. She said I could "throw a fit" if I wanted to, but it wouldn't do any good...they are going.
I was doing pretty well with my quit smoking over the past three days, but went out and bought cigs this morning. I hate to allow this to victimize me and fill me with anxiety.
