Twenty two months since I was laid off. That's how long it takes to replace a good job.
[Thank you for great friends with leads and bush beating abilities, for strong family and unconditional love, for contract positions to tide me over, for a beautiful city to explore in the meantime. Thank you for all the wonderful "in the meantimes". ]
Yes, congratulations ARE in order. My bottle of Stella Rosa is chilling in the frig waiting for me to get home. I brought the bottle with me from Wisconsin to Washington. It is finally time to enjoy it. I have arrived.

YAY! That's great, Sarah! I'm very happy for you!
ReplyDeleteCongrats, too!
Congrats Sarah! Enjoy the celebration!
ReplyDeleteWhat? Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteNow I wonder if it is the job I knew about, or one I didn't. In my book you were employed all along because you always had work. No perks or long term security, I guess. What's a Stella Rosa? Is that anything like Schlitz Malt Liquor? If so, stay indoors, SML is arrest me juice. Like a cop magnet!
I wonder if they still make that? Been out of the loop awhile
ReplyDeleteIt's the one you knew about, Juan.
ReplyDeleteI've been good about keeping a paycheck coming - even between contracts. Those contracts - espcially when they are ending - are nerve wracking.

That is fantastic news, my friend! What a terrific Christmas gift for you. Congratulations! Michele C.
