The “Swoosh” called and we answered. On a random Saturday evening back in April Matt received a call from one of his favorite people at Nike. He called to inform him about a position opening up at headquarters in their Sports Marketing Legal Department. You would have thought that the person on the other end of the line told Matt that he had won the lottery. This was not only his dream job…but the job he had dreamed of getting once he achieved his dream of returning to Nike in some capacity. I am not joking….Matt probably would have joined them as a cobbler if that was the only job left. After four years of working towards his dream job, he had the possibility of actually getting it. The timing could not be any worse as things had been so strained. But what the hay….might as well throw his name in the hat and see what happens. Fast forward to last Monday where an offer happened! The call came in at 1:32 pm on my phone. I was at Starbucks (where else =)) and didn’t answer. I received and urgent email saying “Call me ASAP.” My first thought was “Sh** what did I do now.” I called and Matt could barely fumble out the words to tell me that he had been offered the job. My legs went limp. I literally could have fallen right there (drama). My heart was pounding my palms were sweating and it seemed like my world was spinning out of control. This was it…this meant we were moving. Not in a month, not in two months…in TWO WEEKS. I still have four weddings through August and September and plan to stick in Cali till those are done...but we have already planned our first trip to OR to look at homes (YIKES). These next couple of months will be interesting to say the least....I had better hold on to my hat!
