Never say never
After my baby sitting job last year, I was like never again. But back in September I went to the bus stop to get Brooklyn from the kindergarten bus. A little boy got off, but his parents were not there. Since I have talked to them a few times, I decided to walk the boy home. As we were walking there his dad pulled up. He said that their babysitter just decided she couldn't watch their kids anymore and if I knew anyone on a temporary basis. I said I could do it until they found someone. The kids are both older, plus it was only 2-3 times a week. 5 months later I am still watching the kids. I find out next month if I will keep baby sitting or if they will move. I won't mind either way the kids get along really well with mine, and like I said it is only a couple of times a week.

new job
The end of December we found out Mike's job of the last two and a half years was going to relocate. They were going to lay off the majority of the people. Only took 2-3 guys with them. So we started the long journey of looking for a new job.
Mike had a few interviews that basically sucked. They lasted about 10 minutes max. He then had a phone interview with IM flash. It was supposed to last a half hour but ended up lasting over an hour. They then called him in for a 3 hour interview. Problem was it was scheduled the exact same time as one of my old roommates weddings. Luckily a sister in my ward was able to come and baby sit our kids. Problem with the job he was interviewing for needed to start the middle of February which would of made us lose the severance package. But when the middle of February came and went we knew that wasn't going to happen. But we still hadn't heard from them.
A couple of days later Mike sent me a text to not make dinner that night, and that he would call me. When he called he said that he got the job at IM flash and that he was starting the beginning of March which worked out perfect with his last job.We were so excited.
His first day was today and he said he thinks he will like it. We found out his schedule today. He will be doing shift work 6:30-6:30 switching from days to graveyards every 4 months. He will start with graveyard. He works Sunday through Tuesday and then every other Saturday. I hope it works out.
