A few weeks ago my legal divorce was finally done!

I discovered that I will be getting a refund from the IRS rather than paying a big sum (since you don't have to actually be divorced to qualify as head of household)!

But the best news is that HN was just offered the job of his dreams! He will now be teaching full-time in a tenure-track position. He is HAPPY beyond belief. I'm so happy and proud of him. He's a very good teacher and I'm glad he will be able to focus on that rather than it being his "side gig".

He'll still be working for the same University as me but we'll now be in different departments and different buildings. Neither of us will ever have to worry about the other becoming our boss!!! Not to mention the fact that if he didn't get this position he would have likely moved to a new city within the next year to take a similar position somewhere else. If he had moved, we would have returned to just being friends because we both know that I'm not going to move until my kiddos are much older - shared parenting with their father is working far to well for all of us.

Too bad the weekend is so far away - we have a lot to celebrate!!!

M2M, that's all wonderful news! I'm so happy for you, it seems as though even if spring isn't really in the air (at least here) the happiness is catchy!

Yay for all of us!

Moody, floating this morning
