Perhaps not glaciers, but more like a watched pot never boils ... when you anticipate, expect, desire that something happens, you often get impatient and look away right before "IT" happens. You might even miss it. I think that's what many of us do when we want to press on with our futures.
As of today, I've accepted a position with Revolution Technologies, which is placing me in railinc as an automation lead starting Aug. 30th. I am also looking to speak with an individual about a job position in the institutional branch of Fidelity, doing test management / coordination. It seemed like I would never find something "decent" for a job, and I potentially have two opportunities.
I thank all of you who are cheering me on, but I really need to thank God for His faithfullness. Refinanced to 4.25% and had no mortgage payments for two months. That was a blessing. Severance from Fidelity, and insurance payments equal to what I was paying as an employee ... that too was a blessing. NC is a "concurrent" state, which means that one can collect unemployment after vacation funds are paid out. That too was a blessing ... adding to that, the ability to help Lucie out with the summit, and finding out that she can put off her knee replacements ... all blessings.
Do I think I am better than others, and draw good karma to myself? Nope, like St. Paul, I am chief among sinners, and the things I ought not to do, I do, and the things I ought to do, I don't do ... so what is it. Why such favor from God? Dunno ... don't deserve it, just blessed, blessed and grateful to the mighty one of Israel.
Those of you praying? Thank you. Those of you jealous ... I don't know what to say ... God is good, all the time.
