Great Days!

A few weeks ago, a recruiter that has placed Brian in jobs in the past called to see if Brian would be interested in taking a different job. He campaigned hard, calling and emailing daily with new details about the job offer that made the pot sweeter and sweeter. A really big raise, good benefits, a nice job title, the prospect of ascending in the management ladder. Did I mention generous relocation benefits? Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that this awesome job is in Alabama. I have to admit that we thought about it for about 1.5 seconds. The huge bump in salary was even more tempting because the cost of living down there is almost half...yes half of what it is here. A house like ours would cost less than half of what we are paying for ours right now.

That thought was immediately erased from our collective mind as we considered what our life would be like without our parents and siblings. It is true, we depend on you. A lot. Great days with you drive the point home.
