Job security!

"Job Security". This is now going to be a phrase back in our lives that has been missing for WAY too long. Tyson has applied at so many jobs the last months since we moved from Logan and nothing has worked out yet. We've taken several trips to Idaho for Tyson to work for his brother and parents. It has been so helpful and much appreciated! Well last week we went back home for Tyson to apply to a few more jobs. It didn't seem very hopeful because someone told Tyson that one of the jobs had 5-6 open positions and they were going to go through "only" the first 350 applications. Another place had received 12,000 applications! It's ridiculous how few jobs there are and how many people are out of work! Well today he got a call from one of the companies and they want him to start tomorrow morning! We are so grateful that something finally worked out. It's good pay, it has benefits, and they're hoping to get him in a manager position soon which will be a significant raise. It's such a relief to know that we can actually sit down and do a real budget now since it will be a steady income. Wow. Who'd have thought I'd ever feel this thrilled to make and follow a budget!? :)
