Bump in the Road

Well there is a little hiccup in our inspections for the Sauquoit house here in NY. It has been  postponed until this Saturday. Today is still the biggest inspection, the one of the house in Gardner! So enough of me being a downer. 

Last night we went to dinner with a few of Jabin's coworkers again. We went to Ancora, and its pretty cool how the whole town seems to know the DeIorio's team. This time it was Rob (CEO), Michelle (CFO), Bryan (Vice President of Operations), John (Efficiency Consultant; he looks into ways to automate or just improve what the company is currently doing) I can't say enough how impressed I am with the people of this company. Every time I meet a new person it feels like I am part of the DeIorio's family. I am very excited for what is to come. Each one of them has their own endearing quality. They are also huggers, and if you know me I'm not a huge fan of shaking people's hands, I'd rather hug them :)

Conversation was very fun too, Jabin and I talked with Rob the most we sat closer to him. I was a copy cat when it came to ordering also. The chef Jason made crab cakes (I'm not sure if we ordered it or not) but they were AWESOME, then comes fig and garlic flat bread with a blasamic drizzle, fried meat balls, and Utica greens. I love trying things even though I don't think I will like them. Usually I get pleasantly surprised. So we all know that I am not a fan of meat and I have always proclamined that I do NOT like seafood. So naturally I piggy backed Michelle, Rob and John's off the menu order. We had filet mignon, shrimp and lobster risotto. In one word, YUMMY! I know there is a specific name for it but I don't remember. Jabin got the special, they had fresh salmon come in yesterday, he had a salmon filet on top of a risotto with peas I believe, he said it was pretty yummy also. Then came desert vanilla creme brulee with fresh sugared strawberries and whipped cream, I could have easily eaten the whole thing alone but I was already stuffed. As we were leaving I said something about needing to blog about this evening so our families would be able to hear about. To my surprise John and Bryan were very impressed with it all, they even asked to get the link so they would read too. 




We are so lucky to be able to experiences all of these things. Late afternoon yesterday Jabin was contacted by the company in Gardner he tried to get a job with a few months ago. They twiddled their thumbs in creating a job for him for so long that we took another opportunity and but all be damned if they didn't contact Jabin to tell him that there was a job opening now. All in all we both know we have made the right decision to move here and start a new adventure. Things happened in this order for a reason. So we will take  the saying everyone has repeated to us multiple times "Thing will happen how they are suppose to." Granted we would love to live closer to our families and friends but we honestly think we will probably cherish the moments with them more now that we live so far away. We are very lucky to have the support team that we do to be able to make such a huge decision. What better for a new marriage then to move it far away and only be able to depend on each other for support? Our cousin Mandy has always told us that she thinks this is the best for any new couple to build a strong a forever lasting marriage and friendship. 

I think that is all I have for today. See you next time!
