Don't have much time to write this morning, but...I have a new job! I'm done at St. Ned's as of March 9.
The new job at Local Major University is web stuff, not church-related, and it pays well enough to get Dennis out of his craptastic job so he can stay home with Isaac and write. That was a big part of my motivation for leaving; I couldn't watch him getting up at the crack of dawn seven days a week to go work at the church, knowing that if I just went to work somewhere else, I'd make more than they were paying both of us. While I like to pretend that I'm all above material concerns and exist solely on a spiritual plane (insert Snakes on a Spiritual Plane joke here), I realized that I was taking care of the church at the expense of taking care of my family, and that doesn't work.
I already know some of the people I'll be working with at the new job, and I'm excited about having co-workers doing the same thing I'm doing and being part of a team again. And I'm nervous because, well, I'm kind of socially inept, and I don't know what kind of lunchboxes the other kids are carrying this year.
So, yeah, big changes comin' at our house. Also, maybe(?) teeth. We have sustained grumpiness and drooling. I guess we're hitting the stage where the baby could levitate three feet off the floor and start reciting Jewel lyrics in a demonic voice and we'd be like, "huh, must be teething."
