Update on Palmer Move

Hi all,
I meant to post this a couple of days ago, but things have been a little busy around here. :)

I'll start with Wednesday before we moved (on Thursday) was my last day of work. I had been sick for almost a week and finally
went to the doctor. I was diagnosed with borderline pneumonia, which I definitely did not have time for. Then, Thursday we were
packing and loading the truck when the tornado sirens started going off. Being that sirens go off often with no results all the
time in Memphis, I wanted my guys to hurry up and load the truck- not taking a break.. Then after I was a slave driver, I found out
that there really was a tornado that touched down within a few miles of my house. (crazy, huh?)

Since we got a late start- weather/health related Thursday- we ended up driving all night and getting into Gulf Shores (with no sleep)
early Friday morning. We got everything unloaded Friday, and Saturday morning. By Saturday night, I was totally unpacked and
all pictures were hung by Sunday night.

Kevin and I were both due to start our jobs Monday (today). When Kevin went in, he found out that his new boss had a car wreck
last week and will be off work until Wednesday. Hope he does get to start Wed. He does too. ;)

I started my job today too. I really like the place. The people are nice, and the work is both challenging as well as familiar to what
I was doing in Memphis.There are great benefits. The only drawback is the 40 mins. drive each way. Before starting my job, I went
for another interview closer to home. They are interviewing all week, and will let people know Friday. I thought I wanted that job, but
left feeling like the job I already got was the best one for me- in spite of the drive.

I guess that's it for now. Keep in touch.

Love, Becky :)

Palmers Moved... How It Happened

Well, we had decided to move to Gulf Shores, AL. I went apt. hunting while there with Robyn in June. I decided that if we were really gonna move, I better get busy faxing some resumes. I got the yellow pages for the area, and started faxing resumes to several doctors in the area. I actually faxed the Thursday before the July the 4th weekend. I got a call that following Monday from a job in Fairhope, AL that has several offices. It's an ortho office with 7 mds and several PTs. I went down for an interview, got the job, and was elated that they allowed me to give my 2 week notice at Home Health Care of West Tennessee. After I got my job, Kevin went to meet up with the owner of a wrecker/towing company. He got the job too, so we went to pay up at the apt, electricity deposit, etc. to be set up to move at the end of the month.

The last 2 weeks at my job was extremely busy. I was excited and sad at the same time. My last day was July 29, moved on July 30. Details to follow on next post....
