Re: I am a little worried
Posted by Joshua on 11/21/05
Thanks for the info. I've got every school district in Eastern
Washington and Northern Idaho bookmarked and I check them
fairly regularly even though it's going to be another year
before I'm back up there. I'll need to stay near Spokane as
that will be the best bet for my wife to find employment after
she leaves the Air Force as well. She's an electrical engineer
so job choices are limited outside of urban areas. I know I
can get a job working at the residential treatment facility I
worked at during my undergrad years while I look. Thanks again.
Joshua
