Good news

My dad got a job! Thanks be to God! It's really so wonderful. He's going to have full benefits and a salary and everything. He's been in and out of work for 2 or 3 years now, so this is a huge relief for him. Plus he's very excited about the position, and it actually is commensurate with his experience and education (rather than entry-level, which is mostly what is offered to 62-year-olds who have to start over these days).

I'm just so pleased for him. He called all excited and saying how now they could come visit, which I think it really sweet. Plus it will keep me from having to make another trip to the Midwest! Yay!
