1 door closes and another door opens, this may be a good thing.

Well, she got a job. Went for an interview friday before x-mas. They told her that they would call her for a 2nd interview. Time passes, she finally hears from them this past friday. Sent her a Quickbooks test to do online. Heard back from the co. on monday. Told they didn't want her to come in for a 2nd interview. Then asked her if she could start on thursday (today). Well, she goes and gets sick over the past weekend, they told her to get better and come in monday. Which is good b/c now unemployment will pay her for the whole week. And it's only about 4-5 miles from the new house. And the new house is just awesome.

Thanks guys. Nice to have her going back to work, mostly for the paycheck, but she gets bored easily sitting around the house all day. She also starts school on monday. Going from doing hardly nothing to a full time job and part time school. It was nice when she was off, she got all the stuff done for us to get into the new house.

Congrats on her finding a job and the new house. Mine finally went back after 7 yrs of staying home with the kids. It was hard.but well worth it. Having a second paycheck helps a lot.
