Title: I Got a Job!!!
Post by: BentonGrey on February 20, 2007, 09:53:33 AM
I got a job!!  Woo-Hoo!  I've just spent the last half hour dancing around the house, and I want all of you to share in the merriment, the joy, and the bad dancing!  Haha, for those of you who saw my post before the boards went down, you know that I've been out of work for a LONG time, but I think things are finally turning around.  It's not exactly a glamorous line of work, scoring tests, but it is full time and that is more than good enough for me!  My wife doesn't have her phone today, so I'm dying to tell someone about this. 

We've been praying really hard that something would come through, and like what usually happens, about the time that we were starting to lose hope, God reminds me that he's taking care of us!  Thanks for all the well-wishes and such that y'all posted before, it really meant a lot.

Ohh, and about the thing with my father I wrote about in that post, in case anyone was wondering, he is actually dealing with his father's death really well, and that week I was down there was really good for both of us.  I think it made a real difference.  Anyroad, I'm gonna' try and go surprise my wife at school with the good news.  God Bless!

Awesome news, BG!!  While I'd still encourage you to keep looking for that "perfect" job, I also know that this has been weighing on your for a long time.  Best of luck.

Thanks UY, I am still looking, but it's just such a huge weight off of my shoulders to KNOW that I have something.
