*disclaimer* I am writing this over a week before publication. All information is subject to change. I’ll try to update if that happens, but I’m working a LOT, so it’s not 100%

It’s been a month of a whole lot and a whole lot of nothing.

Erik and I both got no’s from our interviews last month.  However, they were exceptionally positive no’s as both of the managers liked us and wanted to hire but there were key things preventing it from happening.  Both of us were asked if they could keep our resume, and keep in touch in hopes they could find the right fit.

So while nothing happened with those, they had positive feedback and left some hope that they could eventually work out.

I have had another interview in the interim.  It went pretty well, but I have not yet heard back.

I’m not worried, though. Every time I think about the move and us getting to Florida I keep hearing “June. June. June.”  Every single time.

So, I’m thinking June may be our month.

In the mean time we are starting the long road of packing up 16 years of our lives.  I started on my office last week in some time off from work. Packed up all but a few books, with one last large stack to go to half price. I threw away three bags of trash in the process of cleaning out my office.  It’s not done yet, but it’s close in there.

The girls took a cue from me, apparently, and cleaned/packed much of their room. I heard a rumor that several bags of trash went out during the process there as well.

No, we don’t have jobs yet. That means we certainly don’t have a house yet…but once things happen, they’ll happen fast and the more we prepare ahead, the less we’ll be pressured at that time. Well, that’s the theory at least. 😉

It’s weird living in a house of boxes…but it’s also nice to be just chucking so much excess we’d built up over the years.

So no major news yet…but it’s coming. In the mean time we are keeping the faith, keeping our hopes up, and keeping busy.

    Wow, moving to my neck of the woods, are we? Always exciting, picking up and moving off to a new place. Have you decided where yet?

      I am, I am!! We are looking for the general Central Florida area. My son lives in Kissimmee, so we’d like to be close, but not right on top. Aiming for within an hour, but am willing to go up to 2 hours away. Right now the exact location is primarily dependent on where I (or my husband) finds employment. The interviews I mentioned in this post were on the east coast – mine in Ormond Beach, his in Deland.
