Hey everyone! I wanted to give an update since it has been awhile.. First of all, mom's surgery went great and she is doing really well! Unfortunately, our dog Sally passed away. Our family was pretty broken up over it.
As for PepsiCo.. Hubs spoke to them first thing that Monday and Mike said, "that's great! We have a couple of other interviews schedules we have to follow through with next week, but we will be in touch!"
Say what?
We were expecting him to say he would draw up and send us the employment contracts, etc..
So, we waited and waited.. Only to get a generic email from them saying the position had been filled. I mean, really? We went from being upset to angry and now we are just accepting that it is what it is.. I still don't understand why they would verbally offer him the job, say it is urgent that they get a response, then give it to someone else. But whatever..
We cancelled our reservation at Bahama Bay and are having a stay cation at home this year. We are going to use our tax money to pay off some debt. We are trying to do the debt snowball so that we can be in a better position to afford a good vacation next year.
We are trying to stay positive and be excited about our spring break plans (Indianapolis children's museum and maybe a couple nights camping at Mammoth Cave if the weather cooperates) but it's not the same. The kids are being so great about it though! They are excited no matter what we plan to do, they just want to have some fun as a family! I can really take a lesson from them on being happy no matter what!
And so, our Pre Trip Report comes to a disappointing end, BUT I will be back one of these days and we will be posting a much happier trip report!
