Well, what's the word?
 In fact I just finished scanning to PDF my acceptance of the offer. I guess it's official now.  Bittersweet. Very nice to be recognized for my abilities, experience, and accomplishments. Be offered a great job and salary. But at the expense of leaving my family behind, and then to move them half way across the country. Doesn't matter I guess. It's was my only option to survive. |

Congrats on the job! It sounds like you made the best move considering the alternatives. I remember reading an article a while ago that deals with families adjusting to living apart. Maybe it'll be helpful: Living Apart for the Paycheck http://www.nytimes.com/20...ommuter.html?pagewanted=1 |

Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine
Made up my mind, make a new start
Goin' to California with an achin' in my heart
Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair
