As many of you know last September we had a job scare. Jeremy is on temporary orders at his Air Force base. Last July he was told that when his orders were over (September 2007) that they would not be extending them. As you would think this was scary, he began to send his resume to every possible place he could work and we put the house on the market. They did extend him through this September.
One of the places he applied was to take the test to be an air traffic controller. In March he finally heard back from them and scheduled a test date. He went to Daytona and took this 6 hours monster of a test, WOW! Two weeks later we got the results back, and he made a 90% out of 100%, we were very pleased. This is a good score as you would think! Just so you know he could not study for this test as it is an aptitude test.
Well, last week we got word that they wanted him to go in for an interview. Upon further research we discovered that the position is already Jeremy's. That unless something really wild happened during the interview, he will be an air traffic controller! We are very excited about this, it is schedule for Tuesday April 29 and will take place in Texas.
The position is in KANSAS!
That is right folks we are moving to KANSAS CITY!
In the middle of all of this, Jeremy was up for reenlistment in the Air National Guard. In order to reenlist he had to pass his PT test. This is a test of his physical strengths: running, push ups, situps, waist measurements and weight. Since January he has lost 25 pounds and 3 inches off his waist! WOW! I am so proud of him. He was able to meet all the requirements and pass his test. So on Sunday night (His test was Sunday morning) we went out to celebrate with some pizza. Something he has not had much of on his diet. There is one small thing we are praying GOD is going to take care of for us (Since He already took care of ALL this other stuff), in reenlisting Jeremy should be getting a bonus. Because of the type of orders he is on, there is a small chance that he may not get the bonus. We KNOW that God is going to take care of us and we rely on Him!
Finally, there is the small matter of the house. We would ask that all of you would pray that God would send us the buyer for our house and that we would set it at the right price. We have already come down $15,000 from our original asking price. We are going to wait until Jeremy goes on his interview to decide if we want to lower it again.
Thank you all for your prayers and support, we love you all.
