The Job Hunt

So as some of you may know I have been looking for a new job for quite a while now. And as it turns out I interviewed with HP in Colorado Springs again. This was my third interview with this particular company since late 2001 when I separated from the Air Force. Well I guess third times a charm, because I received a call last night informing me of the offer letter that is to be delivered today or tomorrow. So needless to say Kelly and I are pretty excited to be getting out of the Washington DC area and back to Colorado. Its gonna be a bit of a pay cut, but with cost of living adjustments and such we will be doing great. And the best part about the job is that its ALL telecommuting work. I’m not required to show up at the campus unless i want to.

So with the impending move back west Kelly and I have been looking into homes in the area and prices. The price gap between the house we purchased here in VA and the available homes in CO is incredible. For the price we paid for our townhouse here we could easily afford a 4-5 bdrm house in Colo Spgs. So we are probably going to go all out this time and get the house we want.

It is sad to be leaving my friends here in DC, as I have quite a few that I have been working with for quite some time. I have been losing sleep agonizing over whether to take this job / pay cut, but I really think this is a good move, and perhaps will keep my interest for more then a year and i can possibly make a career at this company.

Not much else going on besides the job hunt. I have lost nearly 25 pounds in the last two months, all the weight I put on while working at ATR. We also have been watching a good amount of ‘The Dog Whisperer”, trying to gain some insight into what makes Stoli so crazy. That is about it.

So hopefully within the next two weeks we will get some stuff straight and prepare to head west once again.
