The Job Hunt


Sao Paulo - not what you pictured, is it?

The banking economy here in Charlotte came to a grinding halt this year, thus, no work for Sam's law firm. They did their best to ride out the storm, but in the end they laid off a slew of competent attorneys -- Sam being one of them. He's off to NYC tomorrow to interview for a position that would take us to NYC for a year and then on to Sao Paulo (yep, that's in Brazil folks). We've always wanted to live abroad -- kids or not--, but the thought of leaving family so far behind is the only thing stopping me. Well, that and the fact that we STILL haven't sold our stinkin' house in Utah.

I have moved almost every year since Sam and I got together : 6+ times in all. I love the excitement and spontaneity, but I thought Charlotte would be our landing place for sure. Guess the big man upstairs has something else in mind....

I'm sorry to hear that you don't get to settle yet. Any chance you could come to the midwest :) Good luck with interviewing.

Molly, oh no! Can you come back to DC? NYC and Brazil would be amazing. I can't believe you have to move again. Come live with us!

I still hold that since we have plenty of room now and a park out our back gate you should just come hang out here with us until Sam lands his dream in Dallas!
