ODJFS, Round 3

Today I got another phone call from ODJFS regarding a Medicaid job. This is the third call. I'm starting to wonder if this is my big career break and I'm giving it up carelessly. It's a good job with a good salary in a place I already know, even if it is far away from our families and out in a red state. So many things swirling through the old noggin. I want a farmhouse with land in a safe granola place, but how many jobs that I don't like can I wade through to get there?
Tomorrow I think I will call the woman who wants to interview me and see if she'd be willing to give me a phone interview (or even pre-screening interview). There's no way I can manage to get to Columbus any time soon to interview, what with taking next week off and going to Florida and all of that. At the very least, I can let ODJFS know not to give up on me yet, even if I'm still tied down here doing Dad stuff.
Columbus doesn't feel like the right place for us but it is certainly a place where we could work on our dreams of home and family. I guess I'm not ready to sever my connections at ODJFS - I don't know when I'd get a similar opportunity in another place.
Being a grown-up is hard work.
