So the Gibb family has some news.....Jayme has accepted a job offer in Edmonton.. so we are moving. It's a really great opportunity for him, he will be a Corod Training Specialist.. basically training guys how to do what he's been doing for 15 years. It's a mostly office job (M-F 9am-5pm) he'll have weekends off (great for Church). There might be some traveling, and in the years to come would be more international. With Jayme being at the head office in Edm. there will be lots more opportunities for career growth. I"m excited to live in a city with a Temple as well!
I am so not looking forward the selling the house process (keeping it clean, if anyone knows me, this will be a HUGE challenge.) I also hope it doesn't take along time to sell (like our Calgary house, uhg). Jayme starts March 14th.. so he will then travel back and forth. It will be hard to have him gone during the week, but I look at it as it's only 5 days..
We are looking at the south east area of Edm. and not ruling out Sherwood park, Beaumount, Leduc.. It will be exciting to look for a new house, though I do love my house right now!!
I'm really sad to leave my friends here, I take a while to establish good friendships.. and now i'm starting over again. I truly hope to keep in touch with all my friends here! And now they have a place to stay/visit while in Edmonton! I feel so settled here in Lloyd, and I love the size of it, no traffic etc. I love love love our Branch.. so many good people :( - not sure how I'll fair in a ward.. guess we'll see.
So this news is bitter-sweet. Very excited to be closer to family (only 2.5h to Calgary) - but sad to leave so many wonderful people :(
We are excited for you! We hope it will be a smooth transition and that things just fall into place.
ReplyDeleteWe are very sad you are going... but I am also totally jelous! I want to move back to Edmonton ;( At least we will be in often visiting family and we can come by and see you.
