I'm Baaaaack!

Hey everyone,

I'm back home (got back in late yesterday).

First off, I want to give JT a big public "Thank You" for filling in for me. I couldn't have done it while I was away.

Second, I had a good time celebrating my birthday with my family. Of course, they all made their jokes and gave me gag gifts (does anyone out there need any Depends?). As I expected, I didn't get the Nook like I wanted. It looks like I will have to save up for it.

And last, my interview went well on Friday. They told me I should hear something one way or another before the end of the month. If I get the job, I will have to move to Dallas by the first of August. Thankfully, they will help with moving expenses. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

I'm glad to be home, though. I have a ton of emails to get caught up on (I didn't even check them while I was gone) and numerous Wonder Wheel spins (I wasn't going to subject JT to that).

I hope you all got tons of Oodles while I was gone. I'll keep you up-to-date on the possible move as I know more.

  3. Glad you're baack and the interview went well. I don't know where you're moving from, but Dallas could be great, except they get too much weather for me (I'm east of Houston). I do like the cold weather tho'. Great Luck on the interview and thanks as always for the oodles stuff. I'm trying to save wonder wheels in case we get a bonus when 1,500,000 members......

    Thanks again.

  6. JT did Great! And you are the Coolest for your OOD---Doodle support for us that can't always keep up with the Oodle demand... of scoring oodles.
    I have wanted to thank you so many times before... I bet there are a lot of other people out there that feel the same way.

  9. Welcome back, fingers crossed, and requests to deities of choice for your employment opportunity. JT did a fabulous job for which we are all grateful. My husband received a whole slew of gag gifts for his 40th including a cane that has actually come in useful for and injury. I am now contemplating a change in careers I am due for a change - but I am just trying to figure out wha I want to do when I grow up (I will be 51 in a few months).

  14. It was miserably hot in Dallas while I was there. They had their first 100 degree day on Saturday. It looks like summer came early.

    As far as I know, if I get the job and move to Dallas, I will still be doing this blog. I don't think it will be an issue. My work hours will be the same as they are now.

    JT is recovering well. He had a couple of beers after he got home from work and then crashed. :-)

  16. best of luck to you in getting the job in Dallas! As for the weather, unfortunately, that's just the way it is down here. (I'm from Houston) We don't usually get much of a spring, and summer is long and hot, oh, and HUMID!!! That will be the big negative for you, but you do get used to it! :) praying that all works well for you!
