I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has been praying for me and my family, sending out good thoughts and good vibes.  Chris received a job offer today and accepted it.  He starts in two weeks.  We won't even miss a week of income.  His old job would have lasted until mid-December and then there was no guarantee there would be anything after that.  Not only is it a great job in the same field, he will be making $15,000 more a year.  I don't know when medical benefits will kick in, he forgot to ask, he was so astonished by the pay rate, so most of that extra money will go for a medical COBRA until they do.  He comes home tomorrow.  I am just so relieved.  The stress of not knowing what was going to happen was ridiculous.  I am so glad it is over and so very grateful to God for taking care of us.

In other news I wrote another 300 words on Leap of Faith, and 2000 words on a Ten/Rose fic.  I think I wrote either one or two paragraphs on the original fiction.  I didn't have it open for long when I had to go down and take care of something at T's school.  Remind me not to complain about being bored again. *laughs*

We spent 45 minutes swimming tonight and I did 30 laps in that time.  I am looking forward to Friday when I can spend an entire hour or more in the pool.  Oh, I wore my knee brace today.  Although my knee didn't hurt on Monday after swimming, it ached a little on Tuesday so I decided the support was still necessary.  It did not hurt while swimming tonight and hopefully it will not ache in the morning, either.

Congrats on all your good news! Will Chris still have to be gone as much? The pay raise is great but I'm sure you'd like to have him around more.

Glad your knee is healing. I'm sure the swimming is helping a lot.

Keep up the good work!

Grats! That's a serious pay increase. :D

Also, I'm never not amused by the fact that there's a medical insurance-y thing called COBRA.
