I Got an Offer!

I've been looking for a job since a few weeks after we got up here. I've had some interviews but that's about it. I got an offer yesterday. It's for a receptionist at a Veterinary specialist. It's not like any veterinarian I've ever been to. They're literally an orthopedic hospital for dogs & cats. There are only 3 in the country. As a result people come from far far away & it's very busy, demanding & stressful. I hope I can handle it. I have to let them know if I'm accepting the position by tomorrow.

I've been hoping for a position with the FDA or USDA since we're in a great area for that & that's what I really want to do. It's just not smart to wait around for 1 of 2 companies to have an entry level position. I've been looking since I knew we would be coming to this area & all the positions that have opened are super advance. I love being a housewife but I'm really starting to feel like I need to contribute financially. Josh is more than supportive but I just keep thinking about how much sooner we could buy a house if we had 2 incomes. This will be a challenge but it will be good for us & it will help us pay off all our debt so much faster. We'll be increasing our vacation fund a little bit but essentially all of my income will go to our debt. Before we know it all those college loans & credit card bills will be behind us! I know it will be worth it :-)
