New Job!

Blair quit his job back in the beginning of March. So, after about six months of searching, Blair was finally offered a job that he felt comfortable accepting. (He did turn down two offers. One that was too similar to his old job and another that was in Wisconsin. Okay, four offers if you include the two from the company he left. That's right. They were begging to have him back, but he wasn't taking it!) We are sooooo incredibly blessed! Not many job-seekers can be as picky as we!

Blair starts working for PGE in Portland on Monday the ninth. Woohoo!!! Of course, he had to be offered a job right before a full week of interviews for other promising - dare I say exciting - jobs. But that's always the way these things go. You don't hear anything for a few weeks, then BAM everyone wants to interview you all at once. In fact, right now Blair is in Wilsonville, interviewing for a company that makes medical devices. You heard me right. Even though  Blair is technically employed by PGE, Blair's still sneaking in this last interview somewhere else. In our defence, the PGE position is actually only a six month contract position, so if he doesn't like it at PGE maybe he could still have a chance with this other company after the six months are up. Plus, getting into the medical field is what he's always said he wanted to do with his engineering degree ever since I met him! How could we pass this up?

So, we are all very relieved and very grateful here in the Hasler home. We weren't panicking yet, but it was getting closer to that point with every month that passed.

I'm just really going to miss having Blair around here during the weekdays. He's such a wonderful husband and daddy! He and Paul are best buds!
