Home on the Range

I realize that I haven't posted a true update in quite some time. So, here is the overdue synopsis: In my post in June, I stated that the possibility of Rob getting another Engineering job in the Aviation industry in Wichita was rather small. Well, that is exactly what happened! While continuing his job search and living in Arizona/Utah, he was contacted by Airbus, North America. After phone interviewing and being flown back to Wichita, he was offered a job. Can you believe it? Back in Wichita, afterall. I think there must be some important reason we need to be here. Luckily, we had packed most of our stuff into storage here, waiting to know where we would be living. Obviously, Rob accepted the position and started back to work almost three weeks ago. I really feel soo blessed with the way things turned out. We didn't even miss a paycheck and we get his 11 week severance on top of that. Oh, and don't forget his 8 week PAID vacation this Summer. Wow! We really are lucky! The only downside is that we had to get back so soon, that we just moved back into an apartment. :< (But only for 3 months this time.) That is a small price to pay, considering what the alternative could have been. And wait, it gets better: he was offered more money and we pay *zero* for our health benefits. Yep, no premiums, deductibles, co-pays...nothing! (A raise in and of itself!) Whew! We must be doing something right. :0)
