I tried to post more pictures but I guess it was a one time deal, no such luck getting anymore to post. :(
The company Jon is trying to get into just made him an offer yesterday. It's looking as though we'll be moving to Indiana after all, probably just after Christmas, maybe the first part of the new year. I'm excited, nervous, and a bit stressed about all of this. I'm thrilled that we are getting out of the army and that he won't be going back to Iraq. His 4yr commitment is up but I guess they could still call him back up sometime in the next 4yrs if they had to. He's looking into going into the guard for a couple years and getting stabalization (which means they can't deploy him). This would bring in some extra $$ and keep him home, so I'm ok with that. ;) I'll probably be looking for a job once we're settled in Indiana. I'm NOT going to just take any job that comes my way. I want to find something that I'll really enjoy and I only want to work part-time, around 20-25hrs/wk. I really hope I can get something good. Right now I'm hoping for a job at the new gym or a teacher's aide position. I'm still thinking I want to go back to school to teach and this job could give me some insight before doing all of that. There's a surprisingly good paying part-time teacher's aide position in South Bend. I just hope it's still available once we're there. To be honest, I don't want to work, but the extra income is needed. We really want to have a 2nd child soon and would like to be a little more stable when that happens. Ahhhhhhh a 2nd baby.... I would like to get pregnant now, but it doesn't look like that will happen for a while. Plus we need him to be in this new company for a couple months before the insurance kicks in.
The HH training program is going well, and I've scheduled day care for all this week and next, minus Friday. Friday is when I go in to have my wisdom teeth removed. Not looking forward to that. Maybe this is a good thing though, b/c I won't be able to shove crap into my mouth, lol. I'll look at it as a couple days to detox all chocolate that made it's way into my mouth when TOM was here. hehe

Your on a roll with the updates. Glad the job is looking good. Then I can come visit.
Melissa, that is great. Congratulations to YOU and Jon! That will be great. I'm up for a move but Jason doesn't want to go anywhere right now. He's from Oklahoma but I've been here for almost 5 years and I'm ready to move on. I joined the Air Force to travel... Haven't done much!
Good luck with your wisdom teeth being pulled. That's a great way to look at it!... Keep up the great work with your training!!
Great news on the job! And I bet you will find a great job that works with your schedule. I worked full-time for the first 11 years of parenthood...for me, at least, it was managable with 2 kids, but after 2, it got way too complicated. A part-time job would have definitely been easier I think. I'd like to work again but there are too many kids with too many crazy schedules right now.
That's great about the job. Finally some stability. Good luck on finding a job. I'm glad that you won't settle. Find something that you love to do, it'll make it so much easier to stick with it. I've always worked so I know nothing different.
Great news!
(And I had nothing to do with the chocolate getting in your mouth!)
be good!
