after 9 months of un / underemployment, he is working again! No official offer yet, but it's better than nothing. Easier to find one when you've got one, right?
and, at least it'll have benefits. Private insurance is killing us right now (it would cost $1k to insure DH and kids through my work!).
And, while I think it's weird that the official offer might take two weeks, I'm super excited for DH to quit his construction gig and be home with us!
We had the baby four days ago, and he was going to head back to work tomorrow. Now he can finish all of his projects at home, and hang out with us!
Life is good.
(Re: quitting-- his boss, our friend, knew this was coming nd is super flaky anyway, so DH is just going to tell him that he's done, but friend can call if he needs help with a specific project.)
