New Beginings

I'm thinkin' the winds of change are truly blowing in my direction these days. About two weeks ago, April i got together and determined that our relationship was more important than money and that she would quit her job to stay home with us where she belongs. Her face lit up at the prospect of coming back home. That being said, we also decided it was time for us to move out of our current house (which we are paying way to much for rent) and find something more affordable to help us make ends meet. We have been unable to find a place thats big enough and in a safe neighborhood. We were becoming destraught do to the fact that we couldnt find anything resonable. We were desperate and praying for some kind of divine intervention. About two weeks into our rapid build-up of anxiety, we got a break. I received a call back for a job that I applied for in Colorado. The company is called DigitalGlobe and they are the bigest commercial satelite imagery provider in the world. I applied for a Technical sales Executive position.

It is by far the coolest job on the planet. I get to go to tradeshows and demonstrate their product for up to 12000 people at a time. No, thats not overwhelming. Why do you ask? So I have interviewed with the recruiter and the first sales executive. Now I have to interview in Colorado. hopefully this week some time. I pray that all goes well and we can get out of this money whole of a state that is Virginia. I only wish I could take the fireflies with us. Oh well.
