Back to work :D

I finally found another job after about 6 months on unemployment! A pretty short stint compared to a lot of people but it still feels good to be heading back.

The funny part is I start Feb. 8 and am due to have the baby on Feb. 26. They know all that and were ok with it which is cool though. I'll only be working part time for a while but it's better than nothing :D

Good news, Crystal.

I'm in the same boat, bhazard, except it's been since April. It looks like I'm in for a new career, which sucks. Ten years shot. I'm heading to the School on tuesday to get more info on the Power Engineering programme, which I'm wait-listed for, so it may be another year before I get to go back to school. That means I'll probably spend the next year working for half of what I used to, shovelling dirt or some such.

Thanks guys :) I've already done a couple rounds of school and will probaby finish out some more in a couple years. The job market is so shakey I'm hoping to wait till it stabilizes a bit before I pick a path though
