Well, I got a job!

It's not the one I was looking at, but it's actually better!

This is a small company doing contract hauling. There is plenty of freight, good pay, benefits are acceptable but nothing really special and the only real bad feature is that they currently slip-seat their drivers. But for the kind of money they pay their drivers, I will put up with that little inconvenience. In a few years, I might even have enough money saved to buy my own rig and then no more slip-seating. I can dream, right?!

We are still moving up to Dallas; my wife is very excited to be doing that. She is actively looking at places in the area of my job. Her job is portable and thus she can move it anywhere and still be okay.

Our combined income will be enough to pay our outstanding bills, cover a few wants/needs like finishing my teeth, LASIK for me, a health club membership for her, maybe a new car for her and that RV we've been dreaming of for years!

I am still going to complete my resolution list and this is a big part of it. Next up, get off the cowboy killers! Starting tomorrow!

More updates as they come!
