A New Job: A Better Outlook on Life

My husband has a new job!!! I am so incredibly proud of him and we are so excited to start this new journey. He has been searching and applying and doing interviews for months and finally God has placed a perfect job in his life for us.
Many awesome changes are going to be happening. We have never had a set work schedule for him. This made it nearly impossible to plan things and if we did need to plan a birthday or date night he had to ask weeks in advance for it off. Or we always had to plan around events which was just stressful.

He will be working Monday thru Friday from 7 till whenever he is done. This new job is salary, so basically he decides whether he wants to be done early or not.
So now we gets weekends off! However, he will still be working Saturdays at his old job, this is to pay for the  little things. But for sure we will always get Sundays off! No more boring Sundays for us! We actually get to plan lunch with friends and relax with our families.
Pay is a lot better. He will be making as much as him working his two old jobs combined. He will be working less and getting paid the same or more.
No more greasy uniforms for me to wash(except for once a week)

Now that he has this new job we actually have a better look on things. We now know that we can move in the right direction more quickly, pay off a few things and possibly move out of our town home into something a little bigger. Pay off a few more things and then start saving to buy a house!

The thing that we all look forward the most too is the time together. He will be home every night for dinner I can actually start meal planning which was what I have been wanting to do for a long time now. Meal planning for us saves so much I am excited to pack some healthy lunches for my husband, and he is too. Its the little things it seems. :)

He starts his new job on Wednesday!
Hurrah!
