I still wish, sort of, that he had changed professions/careers during that time (he want back to the same company that laid him off, eventually). My point is: AWESOME!!!! On so many levels. That constant how-will-we-survive feeling that comes with unemployment is just so horrible, and actual income makes a big dent in the worry. I hope he finds his way soon!

We joked that he was the official remodeler of AOL, since we met him through a co-worker who was his college roommate, and he wound up doing work for nearly everyone in my department. In fact, we liked his work so much that when we moved from DC to VA, we hired him again. The funniest part was that during our initial interview, he seemed incredibly awkward about our family...but by the time he'd watched us bicker about the color of the tile or some detail involving the cabinets, he totally got that we were just like any other family he'd ever worked for. If only we were homeowners. We'd totally have you and The King come work on our house. Even over Leo, our previous favorite remodeler.

St. Louis and Indy are only a few hours apart. :) Love the new site, love that The King is doing well, love that you have conquered The Tired, love the Babboo boob story. And love your blog.
