It has been a little while since I've posted any updates so I thought today would be as good as any to do it. I found a job! Well, actually, I found it about 2 and a half weeks ago but I didn't get the job offer until yesterday. Today I found out how much I'll be making and my start date. I'm very excited. With this job we will also get a free apartment near where Doss is going to go to school. There were a lot of thing we were unsure about when we decided to move to Oregon and it feels like this job will tie up most of the loose ends.
I'll be doing basically the same thing I was doing in Hawaii. When I left my last job I didn't think I would ever want to do that line of work again but after going to the interview for this job I found out that there are companies out there that value their employees. I was so glad to hear that they have very little turn over and the reason my position was even open was that the lady who had it before me was promoted.
We get a two bedroom apartment!! It has two bathrooms, a walk in closet in the master bedroom, a dining room, a washer and dryer and a dishwasher. I really can't wait to move in!!
We came to Oregon knowing that we were going to make it, but not knowing how, only that God would take care of it for us. God has delivered!! Things have gone really smooth. Not everything has been perfect but it has been really great. I don't think I could have asked for a better move. Now we just have to save our pennies until Doss starts school next fall. God is good!!

First REAL day in Oregon
OK, so we have been in Oregon for a week now but today will be the first REAL day here. The last week we have just been getting used to the area and catching up on all the sleep we missed the week before we moved. We were getting on average 4 hours of sleep a night and for anyone that knows me knows that I need like 10 to be happy. But now we are all caught up and slightly know where we are, really not at all but I like to be optimistic, and ready to get going. I'm worried that I'm not going to find a job but I know that God has something in mind for me so I'm going to just wait for him to show me where to go.
I'm having a pretty hard time with the cold so I hope that gets better. I feel like I can't put enough layers on! Anyway, I'll keep this short today. Maybe more tomorrow about our first day of job hunting today. We'll see!
