DH has been looking for a new job for a while now. Well, yesterday he got a called from a company with a position in Sacramento. It's a big technology corporation, which I think is a good opportunity for him. They pay $5000 a year to go through training. And I'm sure they can pay him more than he's making now. I told him he should ask about relocation compensation, but he is too chicken! I told him, they are a huge company, if they want to hire you, they'll pay you to move!

I am really excited because we were just up there and I really fell in love with the town we stayed in. I told DH when we were there that I wanted to move up there. How funny that two days later we get a call for a job in that area! I think it was meant to be.

Everyone cross your fingers and let's hope he gets the job.

Thanks!

It really is a whole other world. We were just up there this past weekend and I was floored by how nice the people were every where we went. I'm not used to that! It was really refreshing though.
