    Default Yea! Hubby starts a job Monday!

    Thank goodness! DH was fired a few weeks ago and has had trouble even getting an interview (it's tough out there). But he was hired by a factory Saturday and starts Monday morning. There's good and bad news. First the bad (cuz it doesn't seems so bad) - the money is about half what he used to make. But the good news is he's away from driving a truck (which he wanted), it's first shift work, the benefits are better and much cheaper and it's closer to home.

    I'm glad, but will need to tighten things up and hone my frugal skills!

    best of luck.

    On the bright side, it's amazing what being closer to work will save you and better benefits sound great.
