So you may have seen in many of my weekly baby update posts that Shaun has a new job! It was one of those easy but tough decisions. His retail job was just getting to be too much. I felt like I never seen him and it was really starting to affect our relationship. So we made the decision, shortly before our week long vacation in November, that he would put in his two week notice....without having anything lined up.
Before he put in his two weeks, he had already been looking, had his resume in at a few different places, and had a few interviews. In the meantime, his two weeks came and went and there was still nothing lined up and he was officially unemployed. One place had offered him a job after he went in for a second interview and told him he had to make a decision immediately. Needless to say, he rejected their offer.
We were holding out hope that he would get hired at an office not too far from where I worked. He had his first interview and was just waiting to get a call back for the second.
And finally the call came!! On Friday, December 2, he got the offer from the job we had hoped and prayed he would get! He obviously accepted their offer immediately and to our surprise they wanted him to start right away instead of in January!
So in the end everything had worked out perfectly! It's still scary to think that he could still be unemployed especially in today's economy, but I think God was on our side watching over our growing family!
The new job has been great! Shaun is home when I'm home. We've gotten oddles of things done around the house and have actually been able to enjoy just sitting on the couch and watching a movie! Sometimes it is the small things that really make us happy!
