readjusting to employment

Thanks to all who offered advice for our situation.

Over the last week, my husband has had job interviews with two companies, a call to interview with a third company, and a real honest-to-goodness job offer...

...which he accepted.

Starting tomorrow morning, we'll be readjusting to employment by getting up an hour earlier, so he can get to work by 6:30 AM, where he'll be working on valve assembly for 9 hours a day. This is no desk job-- it's a "pull-out-the-grubby-tennis-shoes, on-your-feet-all-day" kind of job.

While most people will say that you do what you have to do to pay the bills, he decided to accept this job, because it will plug us into a different corner of our community. While we continue entertaining the idea of him going back to school, this job will introduce him to a new realm of ideas, lifestyles, and backgrounds.

But enough glorification of his new warehouse job. It's time for us to start going to bed early.
