Peace of Mind?
Not quite yet but we are getting there. Bill had his interview in South Florida yesterday and was offered the job to be GM of two stores on the spot. Fabulous salary and good benefits. What's the problem? We are waiting to hear on the Denver position. After the interview, Bill called up the other company and basically explained the situation to the owner...that he had received a job offer and was kind of wanting to see if they were really interested in him. The owner called back almost immediately and said YES. Looks like they are flying him out early next week for a face-to-face interview. They are looking for someone to start by Mid-May. I know the pay would be good and the benefits would be excellent. As much as I would hate to leave my friends and parents behind, Colorado sounds like such a great place to raise kids and I'm so SICK of the Florida heat. ;) Sigh....decisions decisions.

At this point, it's all wait and see until after the interview next week. It seems like forever but I know that once we make our decision, things will move incredibly fast. I guess I should start packing up the house now, huh? Start saying my good-byes? I can't believe the horrific timing of all of this. We have made the decision that no matter what happens, the kids and I will stay until I have the baby and kids are close enough to the end of school to not be a big deal pulling them out. My head is spinning a billion miles an hour thinking about all. My emotions...hello, I'm pregnant...my emotions are all out of whack. One minute I'm scared out of my mind, the next I'm panicking, and then I'm just nuts. I know I'm not, but I feel alone sometimes. Why do I say that? Because as a wife, I know that I'll be making a lot of the arrangements alone. Not that Bill won't help but I'm going to WANT him to focus on his new job and I feel it's my responsibility to do it all myself. It's my fault, I know, for having that mentality, but hey...that's me.

I am grateful that my Love HAS received a great job offer so soon after finding out about the layoff. He's blessed to be the awesome business man that he is and that other companies recognize that. He would be such an amazing asset to anyone. Yeah...I'm biased and bragging, but he's my husband, so I can do that. I have a feeling that these two companies will have a "fight" over him which is great and I know that we'll make the best decision for us as Heavenly Father is truly guiding us in this...

Thank you for your emails of support, hope and love.

Did you really post this at 3:09 this morning? If so, I could've joined you in the blogosphere. That seems to be my insomniac time when I lie awake and think about everything I need to do.

I'm so happy for you that Bill has been able to find a new job so quickly. I'm anxious to hear where you will end up. Either way, it stinks for me, but I'm sure it will be an awesome opportunity for your family. Good luck!
