Some of you know DH has been unhappy in his job for a few years now. He applied for a job closer to home and was told he had the job just today. Mr. Green It's a pretty good pay cut but 24 miles round trip as opposed to 100 will make a huge difference too. Less stress and a better work environment also. Keep good thoughts for him as he makes this transition. He is 52 and this is a huge step for us. Shocked

I'd normally say congratulations, but this would mean he also spends more time with you.

sounds like a winning situation to me, less travel, a bed to sleep in and almost no time with you. not much room for improvement.
