As an offshoot of not getting the Chicago job, the recruiter for the Northeast Region passed my resume around. (I may have mentioned that.) I got a call from the Hampton Roads office- the staffing manager there also works for the Richmond office. The Richmond office is interested in me enough that I’m going up next week for an interview.
Now, the issues. Richmond would be good in that it’s where TRgirl, Randy, and the Sprog live. I know some other people there so I wouldn’t be totally friendless, but I’ll still need to find my own core group. It’s also closer to Peg, Bobby, and Steffy. Also, it sounds like the work there will fit more with my career path (or what I thought I wanted my career path to be).

But, I have my core group of friends here. I love my house, I love my neighborhood. I’ve got a good psychiatrist. My vet knows both of my cats and their health issues. I love where I ride, and I absolutely love the horse I am currently riding, so much so that when she does sell it will break my heart.

So, if I get the position, I’ll have to decide. To I try here for another year, to see if we can make my job be what I want it to be? I love the people I work with, so it’s not awful coming to work everyday. It’s just not great either. Do I stay here and plan on pharmacy school? Or do I take a chance on a position that seems a better fit for what I thought I wanted to do, even though I may learn that it isn’t what I want at all, and I do want to go back to school? Do I make the decision to uproot my life again?

I don’t know.
