..since I'd been job huntin', but I dusted off the ol' resume today. I had to stay home, so all the apps I did today were online. I have 3 interviews tomorrow, and another on Thursday. My only qualm about my situation now with the job market, is the insurance needs/wants. I have zero use for medical insurance, since my wife's is excellent. I'd rather get paid more as an incentive personally. I might get a little use out of extra dental or vision though, so there's always that benefit. Anyway, I kept my search strictly to this area. I have no need or desire to go commuting around the city. There were quite a few options within 10 miles of here...I was pleasantly surprised. I hope to secure something during the Summer, so our schedule is shipshape come the school year. Emoticon  4951

@thegoodwife: A couple of them are. Emoticon And staying close to home is a no-brainer with our situation. Besides, the wifey made it clear she likes me at home. She knew it was coming, but wants me to wait a little longer. For the first time since I've known her, she's the one procrastinating. Emoticon This is more of a need/want for me, rather than the family. I know that sounds a bit selfish, but I feel it'll be beneficial to my overall health and happiness...Which in turn benefits the family. Emoticon

@BBQguyIt's not selfish, we all need a purpose. You had a very important purpose staying home with your girls, but time to move on for yourself & your family.  Best of Luck, hope you find your niche' in your professional pursuits. 4951

@WskyTngoFxtrt: That's awesome! I left a VERY good job when we moved to Texas. I didn't make the most money for the hours I put in, but I loved it...And it loved me. Emoticon It would've been 17 years this year if I was still there.  4951

@BBQguy: You will do great! Nothing wrong with asking about more money in exchange for waiving insurance.
