The New Year - 2011

As many of you know, I am WAY behind on updating our blog. I'll try to get better. I'm going to go back a few months so you all know what we've been up to and how things are going in the House of the Woodys.

We were so glad to welcome a New Year when 2011 came along. As many of our family and friends know, Kurt had been out of a job since late April 2010. He started with another company shortly after April last year, but it turned out to be nothing promising and soon fizzled out. Kurt went back to waiting tables at an upscale steak house near our home from August to December while he worked very hard at home during his down time to look for other opportunities. He had a few interviews during this time and two seemed very promising. One of the jobs didn't work out in his favor, but as we all know, it just wasn't meant to be.

Thankfully an amazing opportunity came his way in early December. After going back and forth and interviewing with this company for 4 months, they offered him the job! Kurt left the restaurant, we went out for a nice celebratory dinner, and we haven't looked back since. Kurt has been a different person since he started working for Orthofix in December. and I feel like I'm back to myself again too. Our house is so nice to come home to after a long day without mentioning the job search or any leads that might have come that day. What a relief it has been to have a great opportunity come our way. We're looking forward to a wonderful 2011! This was Take #10 on our Christmas card...Kurt and Cash were ready to call it quits.
