On The Front Porch Looking In: It's Over

It's Over

You're probably wondering what is over...

Well I can officially say on here that the

JOB SEARCH IS OVER!

As of yesterday I got the official word that my contingent offer at State Farm was changed to a full offer.

I know many of you have sent me tweets asking about the new job and I didn't want to get into detail until I got word that it was official.

After applying to 50+ jobs, there is such a sense of relief that I now have something to go to.

I went through countless interviews and even got to the point where they checked my background and references and was then told that they were going with someone else. Talk about a kick in the stomach.

But I'm excited about the new job and the opportunities that I will have.

Thank you again to everyone that left encouraging comments and tweets through this entire process.
