Really pleased for you!! :):D That health insurance is going to be a huge relief I'm sure. I cant be added to my husbands insurance and after seeing his $21,000 surgery bills the past few months, I'm terrified of getting sick or having an accident. We are at least fortunate that he is over-insured and those surgeries cost us little out-of-pocket, although the premiums are sky-high.

Congratulations to you both but especially to Wes. :dance:

It will be great for him to get a foot in the door of something that is at least in the same field as he was working in back in Ireland.

Hopefully his prior experience will help him move into some kind of supervisroy role at some point which might put an end to the unsociable hours !!

I hope that everything works out for you both. Re: the driving... if he ever drove in Ireland I'm sure it won;t take him long to pick up driving over here. Most cars are point and go over here and as long as he knows his north / east / south / west and can read an exit sign he'll have no problems navigating himself around.

Congratulations again !! :dance:

Mark :)

That's wonderful news! You two are such "good people" you deserved this break. I am sure it is the first step on the ladder. Once Wes gets in there he will climb that ladder ............. fast!

Our journey started in 2001 and it's still not over. It's been a rollercoaster ride all the way! Let me off - I wanna be sick!
