It looks like dh has a firm job offer. The one he is doing now is temporary and ends the end of the month. Today he was offered a job starting the 30th!!!

Now, papers have not been signed but this is the most hope we've had in the last 8 months.

I won't believe it until I see it but just dreaming about it has been a thrill. A great raise. A 15 min commute vs 90 min. We can go to lunch with him if we want.

My aunt who was in the hospital most of yesterday is home and doing *much* better.

My sisters are home safely from Africa.

My only nephew is thriving as is my sister.

I have a back up sewing machine to use.
I've been offered a 2ndary serger.

The kids are thriving in the pool and ocean.

Life is good and dh is home for 2 days. :heart:

Did things work out ok? Did he get the job?

Are you doing well?

I hope so!!

Yes, and no.

His old boss asked his new boss if they could keep him until the 15th. The new boss agreed as did dh. Even though it cost us financially. Then about the 9th dh got wind of a rumor that he was not going to be permitted to start until the 1st of Oct. It turns out that the board of directors put their foot down on any new hires until the begining of the new fiscal year... Oct 1. His new boss didn't actually tell dh about this until the 13th. So today, the 15th, is his last day of work and he would have been between jobs 'till the 1st. At 2pm today dh called me to let me know that it is 99% sure that a position has been created for him for the next 2 weeks starting on Monday. Which means he gets a 4 day weekend and is avalible to go on a field trip with the kids and I tomorrow as tenitivly planned. I'm still a mess. I'm thinking that midlife crisis might be the term for what I'm going through. That or delayed grief for my loved ones lost over the last 3 years. Or just shear unending, overwellming stress.
