Another bad hip day, I did 3 miles on the treadmill and gave it up for the elliptical.

So out of the blue (kind of) a company that I interviewed with over a year ago called and offered me a job last Friday, and they offered me a rediculous amount of money to do it, like more than I ever thought anyone would be willing to give me without a Phd or something, yet strangely it's a very hard decision because it means I'd go back on the road. So my stomach is all in knots, I haven't slept all weekend, not sure what I'll end up doing.  Most likely I'll take it though.

Hope the hip gets better.

Nice to be in demand! Tough decision, hard to find the balance between the $ and time/family. Good luck with this one, follow your heart.

My wife actually gave me the go ahead, It's pretty much my 'dream' job. Not that it's glamorous or anything but it's kind of what I have set myself up to be when I grow up so I'm not sure turning it down is an option.

Family definitely needs to come first.
