To move or not to move... That has been the question. When Veronique and I went to the coast for Turkey Day, the idea of me moving back down there was brought up. As it happened, Tempest misses me terribly and her husband has said that he would like to have me back down there so she has her best friend closer. Veronique had said that if I decided to, that she would transfer to a school down there. And the icing on the cake? Tempest's husband said that he was friends with a guy down there who works for a dealership. Talk about an ambush, that hit every line of defense I had. I told all involved that I would think about it. When the school that my daughters attend showed how poorly they were educating Emilee, I decided I needed to find a place to move where the school system is better. Then, along came December and the biggest month for sales and I put it all out of my head... until last night.
Last night Tempest calls. I am talking about some new things I am doing at work and she interrupts me. She says she has to tell me something because she will forget. She says that her husband talked to the guy at the dealership and that he is wanting to offer me a job for 125% more than I making right now. Just based on what her husband told him! So, I don't care if I am jumping the gun on being excited and I don't even care if I jinx it (because if I do, it wasn't meant to happen)... WHY? Because, that is how good I am people. I am that good at my job. I know that I am, but sales - especially car sales, is a fickle business. Employees often bounce from one dealership to another and back. I am not into playing that game. I want a stable job for a few years, not months. Especially if I am going to move my family three hundred miles away, to a new school and a new life.
I won't lie though. I deserve that kind of money and I will take it if it's presented correctly. So, cross your fingers for me friends... I may be moving to the coast.

ps. I just read my horoscope:
Whatever you've been trying to accomplish over the past several months, Kate, could break loose just the way you want it to today. It could come as a total surprise, and might resemble a logjam that's finally given way. Nonetheless, this is your good fortune, and you and those who have been in the trenches with you deserve a few accolades. When it's all set in stone, go out and celebrate. You've certainly earned the right!
Who: katehopeeden
Where: San Antonio, Texas Yeah, so I am all that you see here. I am friendly and kind, crazy and bitchy, playful and flirty... sometimes I am funny but mostly I just write the first thing that comes to mind and then stop when it ends. I love life and I am lucky to be living the one that I am. Want to know more?

"The most wasted day is one in which we have not laughed"
"Life moves pretty fast, if you don’t stop and look around once in a while you might miss it."
"Guys are like stars, there's a million of them out there but only one of them can make your dreams come true."
"Reach for the moon, even if you miss you will still land among the stars"

"I just got done reading the history lessons on your blog (yes, I've been lurking on your blog). All the respect I had for you...has increased, like, tenfold. I don't think I could have done it. To go through what you have and not only still be able to discuss it with such wit and poise, but also to raise those three gorgeous girls. You are truly an inspiration. You are honestly one of the strongest people I have ever known, either online or IRL. Thank you so much." -Stef
