Good News for me and my wife.
She got a job offer last Thursday and started work last Friday. A bit of a pay cut, but because it was before the end of the month our health coverage continued without having to pay the Cobra rate!
As for me a couple of guys asked me to go in with them in private practice. We are all just doing an office share right now, but I already have some contract work lined up. I know the first year will be lean, but I built up a practice once before and I know I can do it again. These last three weeks has been rough for us. No job prospects at all and now things are really looking up. My wife cried when she got the job. Almost broke my heart watching her go through what we went through. Thanks to everyone that lent support, prayers or karma over these last three weeks!

Kurt...starting a new partnership sounds fantastic! May you become very successful...
Perhaps it does look darkest before the dawn?

 Let's all keep the good wishes, thoughts, prayers, and what have you going for our other Pelican friends. There seems to be several in similar spots and probably more to come in the future.
