As many of you know, my dear husband Ben, lost his job following his own RNY in 12/08.

Just a quick note to say thanks for all of the prayers and support as Ben has looked for a job. He starts a 4 to 6 month contract Friday. He'll continue to look for a 'permanent' or 'direct' position, but we are so grateful for the contract. It's amazing how your whole life can change with a phone call.

Thanks again!

We just might think about it! Now that I might be able to afford the entrance fee, I think I'll go see about the OBX 8K... I've got to see if it would work, but I'm thinking...

That would be great, Barb!

I would love to finally get to meet you in person.  You have been so helpful to me over these past two years.

Congrats, too, on your husband's new job!

Take care,
Betsy

Thanks Annie....

It's just a respite, but it's so very welcome and hopefully he'll be able to find something more secure in the meantime. 

Missing you,

Thanks Alice!

I will and maybe with this we'll be able to afford the trip down to one of your meetups. I also want to talk to you about ECU. It's something that Sarah is considering and I'd like to see if you and Melinda might be willing to talk with her about it if we are able to make it down for a visit. 

Warmly,
