Job Hunt!

Our first open house is this weekend, hopefully it will bring people in. The market is slow here as I am sure it is in a lot of places!

My husband found out last week that Admiral Fallon wants to cut back CENTCOM staff by 1/3 and so my husbands job may end sooner than we anticipated. (CENTCOM is the headquaters for the war) He wants it completed by May of next year and the reservists are one of the first ones he wants to cut. So as tours end jobs will go away. Anyway my hubby is more determined than ever to get a civilian job. He is in for several. Most are in the NW where we want to be. Please pray one comes through at the right time!! This is all weighing very heavy on my husband right now and he is the most stressed I have ever seen him in 18 yrs. of marriage. Pray also that I am the helpmate he needs! The "therapist" as Sandy put it in a post. We need the house to sell too so we can move easily if a job comes through.

Thanks in advance for thinking of us!!

Everything is going to be just fine.

Give John a Big Hug from me, and know that there are multitudes of us just waiting for you all up here.

Everything will work out just great. We can't wait!

Remember, don't be devastated if someone doesn't show up and offer you full asking price for your house this weekend. This stuff just takes time.

Much Love,

CV

Good luck with the house sale and with your dh finding a new job. Having just gone through that I know how stressful it can be.

I'll be praying. I'm excited about the possibility of you moving back up here, too! It sure is lovely this time of year, and you'd get to be with your best friend!
