Impish Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) I promised I'd update when we heard anything. No, the job offer letter has not yet come to his email. HOWEVER... He spoke to the guy, and the guy will be calling back in the next 90 mins to verbally go over the job offer, and then it will be typed up, and should be in his email before the end of business today. So, HE GOT THE JOB!!! I'm nervous about celebrating before we have the actual document in hand, but... :hurray::party::hurray: Update in #47 Edited March 1, 2012 by Impish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impish Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Wolf will be doing that. Honestly, I'd rather wait until we have the actual paper in our hands...I'm nervous that way. But, it'll be done before 5pm today, so it counts as 30 days notice. Thank heavens it's a leap year! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all accepted by Wolf, so just have to wait for it to be typed up and emailed. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impish Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Now the panic is setting in. I've already called and booked an appt w/my pain specialist for a referral, called our hsing facilitator to try and see her before we leave (we do 2 visits a yr)... And facing the reality that me attempting to help pack, move, etc is bogus. Working 1 armed sucketh. I'm nauseated. I *think* it's excited butterflies... Weird. We've been hoping and praying for this, and now that it's 98% sure (I won't feel 100% until it's in writing) I'm freaking out. So much to do in such a short period of time. Praying big time that we can find a place that will accept us having our dog...that's our next huge concern. Wolf goes next wknd to look at rentals, and try and line something up.

Impish Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 1:21 pm. Nothing yet. Wolf's out getting boxes, tape, packing supplies. I wish RSD could tell the diff btwn 'good' stress and 'bad' stress, cause my pain levels are rising. Da*n it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan C. Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 The best moving advise I ever got was to rent the truck, and then pay moving guys by the hour to pack the truck (add the kitchen if you can, they are amazingly fast with the packing paper and boxes). We rented dollies and moving blankets and bought rope, bubble wrap, large shrink wrap roll (for the sofa), and tons of tape. I told the guys if they needed something I would go get it, that I wanted it like using professionals, except for us driving the truck. It worked well, and cost a fraction of using a moving company. Oh, and we had guys from a moving company lined up on the other side (same deal, hourly) to unload. Yours may be willing to follow since it isn't that far away, our move was long distance.

This is 5 hrs away. It is considered 'long distance' by moving co. And we can't drive the truck...I don't drive, and Wolf can't drive the van and the moving truck...he's good, but we haven't cloned him yet :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
