I've been a bit stressed lately. I want to move us away from where we live for a variety of reasons but making it happen financially is not an easy thing to do. It has been something I've been struggling with for a while and not been healthy for my wife and I since it annoys her and winds me up.
Yesterday however a glimmer of hope came through. The company I work for and have worked for the last 18 years is being bought. The company buying us has lots of money, lots of engineering positions and a main office on the east coast of the country. Basically if I arrange things right once the purchase goes through I could solve our problem of where we live.
Given the stupid amount of pressure on us engineers at the moment to produce the product that we did and are still improving, that became the last hope for the company to find another company willing to buy out the whole company I work for just for that product and the engineers who work on it is gratifying. It is also hopeful in that it will provide better opportunities for me to support my wife and I.
Somehow I always manage to get through these things. I don't know how but eventually something unexpected does come along. I try my best to plan for things to happen but quite a lot of the best things in my life have been those unexpected surprises that work out for the better in the long run.
