supernatedad is gainfully employed

well, on monday I will be. I accepted a buyer position at famous footwear, a division of brown shoe company. it is a big job but exactly what my experience is made for. the office is about 1.1 miles from our house so my commute will be about 10 minutes total. on the right days, I should be able to walk. I will be travelling a lot but overall the job should be fairly flexible.

it has been amazing staying home with nicholas but I am excited to get back to work and supported the ragtag bunch we call the reillys.
