I have a job!!!

I don't know how thrilled I am (more relieved), but I have been offered (and accepted) a 40 hour week position with my company in Ohio. So now, at least one of us will have a job when we move. I usually work 37 hours, so this will be a few more hours, but since at this store they only take half hour lunches, i will be home more. I leave my current position March 26, and told this store I can start April 8th (one week after the move) Here's hoping i don't take a big paycut or anything, but at least we will have something to fall back on if dh doesn't get a job right away (My salary is only $27500/yr, but it is retail, and it is better than nothing.)

Heather - think of it as an *excellent* way to smooth the transition between states and to make the move that much easier.

All my best,
Danni

HI, Heather. Congrats on your job. It is awesome to be able to get "settled" a little and get your job situation in place. Hope there isnt too much snow. Whiz.

Thanks, everyone!
If nothing else, it buys us a little time before we really have to scramble. The really good thing for me is that my anniversary date with the company is April 11th, and so my vacation time will be available again...three weeks worth!! Believe me, after all the crap that has been happening the past six months, I will definitely park myself somewhere i can recharge my batteries for a few days in the not too distant future. : )
Now,if I could only motivate myself to pack!
