Get Back To Work! Part Deux

Amazing how things seem to just work out!

I quit my job with Convergent in July of 2011 because things were too hectic at home. Hubby was working super hard at both jobs, plus travelling to speak at conferences. The kiddos are getting older and we’re getting more involved in extracurricular activities. Something had to give, so I quit my job. Huge relief for the entire family!

Then Hubby gave his notice (finally!) and quit his job at Flight Options. His last day was December 31st. Yay! Now we’re both working at home for our own company, which is awesome! Except, we lose that one income. And even though I’ll be busier with our business now that Hubby is home to concentrate on his part (which comes before my part), I still won’t make nearly as much money as he did or work as many hours as I could in any given day.

And, quite frankly, my brain needs a new challenge.

So, I’m proud to announce that 15 months after being contacted by my former boss to possibly do some contract work for my previous previous company (software), we have approval to start the project. I’ve got a small orientation tomorrow morning, a mere 10 days after Hubby quit his job. It’s a short contract that will probably get me just to summer, which is awesome because then I can have more time this summer to play with the kiddos!

Wish me luck!
