When did that happen?
It's been a crazy couple of months. A lot is on the horizon for Jordan and I, and I'm so excited to share it with you.
I have, for...well, for forever, have wanted to move back home. At the same time, I also thought that it would be impossible, that there is no work for me there, and so it was sort of wishful thinking. I certainly didn't think that Jordan and I would ever find employment there at the same time.
All of that said, Jordan and I have been thinking about my home town a lot lately. We would live in the same town as my family, and be that much closer to his grandmother and his aunts/cousins. So we started to talk about how maybe we could make a five year plan, and actually make it happen instead of just wish it to happen.
Well, long story short, over the Christmas holidays a position was advertised that was exactly suited to Jordan's skills. He applied on a whim, and interviewed shortly after. He was offered, and accepted the job.
Guess what?
That means that Jordan lives in my home town now....and I, still live in Alberta!
Hilarious.
Right now, the plan is for Jordan to try it out. Make sure that he likes small town living. At the same time, I've been chatting to my employer about telecommuting options, and starting to network just in case. At the same time, I'm also starting to get ready to sell the house. It's like non-stop spring cleaning.
We're thinking that by the fall, I'll be home....just in time for the holidays.
It's March?
