    yeah my husband gave his notice in early (about a month before his end date) because his supervisor was leaving on paternal leave. The company tried to get him to "move up his last day" to the first of March instead of the 29th like he had stated in his letter. He sent a letter to his HR rep...

    I think that we are going to have a very long spring... We will be leaving the Seattle area where we already have the trees flowering, daffodils blooming, tulips getting ready to bloom and my dad said they still have snow on the ground at his place! Good thing spring is my favorite season!

    Other names (e.g. nicknames, maiden names, alias)

    We added things like the fact that my husband goes by both his full first name and also a shortened version if it... like Thomas and Tom. Same as for two of our children that have shorter versions of their names. Also my maiden name but not like facebook names or whatnot. I would think that...
