Job Search Update

It's been just 3 short weeks since I was laid off and I have been lucky enough to interview with two companies already.

The first was with Lenox, who is another division within Newell Rubbermaid, working on Power Tool Accessories. The job is located near Springfield, MA. I'm now waiting to hear about possibly flying up for an in-person interview.

The second opportunity is with Hunter-Douglas, a premium window covering manufacturer. They are located about 40 miles from where we live, which would make for a long commute, but at least we wouldn't have to move. I met with their Director of Marketing on Wednesday and am anticipating I'll be called back next week to meet with their VP/GM of the division.

There are a few other things floating around, but not worth mentioning yet. The intensity of the search has gone down a little, so I'm using most afternoons to work on projects around the house like organizing the attic, working in the yard, and other things I always said I would do someday when I had the time...I now have the time!

The best part of being laid off is getting to take Lauren to school everyday, hanging out with Nolan in the afternoons, and getting to have devotional time with Kimberly while both the kids are taking naps. I guess I'll go back to work eventually, but I'm enjoying the time off for now.

Thanks for following along and praying for us through this fun but uncertain time!
