Mazel Tov Richard – I must say I’m not looking forward to this process – at this point Lisa and I aren’t sure exactly where we will live (we need a bigger space than the two bedroom condo I’ve owned since 1989). My sister lives in the city of Chicago proper and her husband and her are also dedicated to public schooling… They went through quite a bit before finding an elementary school they feel happy with.
We may end up in Chicago as well – real estate will be a big project for us this summer. Obviously we COULD move again before Joella (8 weeks this coming Monday) – but it would be nice to at least be some place we feel confident about the schools…
Sorry to hear about your wife’s travails – glad to hear the eye is on the mend and hopefully end up at an even better job – which is exactly what happened to me in 2004. I had a job I didn’t like at a major engineering firm (Household name – look for a little symbol on the back of any electronic device) was offshored to India. It took a while but I found a job with a small consulting firm that actually treats me like a human being.
