    Default My dh is employed again!

    It's been a while since I've visited FV. My dh lost his job 6 weeks ago, very unexpectedly. He had just received a promotion a few weeks before, so we thought he was safe. Today he started a new job, in a position that he is really looking forward to (he's a software engineer), and one of the best things about it is that it's a 2 minute walk from our house. No wear and tear on his car, no fuel expenses, and more time home for our family!

    It was such a stressful 6 weeks, and I'm so thankful to G-d that he found work so quickly. I was trying to be optimistic, but was also preparing myself for a long term of unemployment.

    Anyway- just wanted to share my good news.

    That is fantastic news. Six weeks is a short time to find a (good) new job, and so close to home, what a bonus!
