Moving On

Up until about a month ago, I worked for OHSU, the medical school here in Portland.  Back in January they lost a major law suit, which left them no choice but to let nearly 300 employees go.  I was one of them.  I got laid off in the middle of my maternity leave; which turned out to be a hidden blessing, because I could stay home with Owen.  However, I was still worried about not having a job.  School is so busy that it would be hard for Tom to work, and we don't want to live off student loans.  

So we started looking for jobs that I could do from home; and we said a lot of prayers.  Well, our prayers were answered!  We just found out earlier today that we are going to Apartment Managers.  And they want us to start next week.  That means we have to move this weekend.  All of the sudden, I have a whole apartment to pack up.

It is really a great little set up.  We get to live in this cute little house, for free, and I only have to work 20 hours a week.  It will be so nice to be able to work from home, and to live in a house!  It is like a dream come true.

We are moving from this:

Cute, ehh?
