2012

Well, after being there for six months as a consultant, I was offered a full time job at Kohl's department store.

I started as a full time employee on December 19th. I discussed with them my need for 4 weeks off during my surgery and initial recovery time from August 17th - September 16th, which they were fine with. I also said that I would like to be able to telecommute from Ohio a fair amount which they were also fine with, so that pretty much sealed the deal.

I will be in Milwaukee through the first week or so of February, then I will move to Columbus, Ohio. I will still be in Milwaukee from time to time, (I know for sure the last couple weeks of June, first 2 weeks of July, and then possibly late October to mid December) to support changes at work, etc. So other than cloning myself, it's really the best of both worlds, I will get to see my friends in both Ohio and Milwaukee.

Surgery date is 8 and 1/2 months away - August 20th.
