Coincidence or a sign?

I got an email this morning that a job I applied for in London is doing an assessment on Wednesday, November 26th.  That's the day before Thanksgiving, and therefore, a very expensive week to be travelling to the UK, but it is also a job in the UK.  London to be precise!  And the coincidence is that it falls on the same day (the day before Thanksgiving) three years after I got my job offer at Carphone Warehouse.  Right now, I am trying to figure out the logistics of a move if I go out and get offered the job.  I have other irons in the fire and they look promising, but none are UK jobs, so it is hard for me to decide.  The U.S. jobs would likely pay more dollar for pound than the UK jobs, but none of them would be in London, so do I follow the dream of living in London again, or do I follow the money with the thinking that eventually, it would lead to an easier transition to London?  It's a hard call to make either way, as I am trying to do what's best for my family.

Taken November 6 2005 View of the millennium bridge and old globe

It's hard to believe that it's been 3 years tomorrow since we celebrated our Wedding Anniversary in London. What a wonderful time it was. We had a life that was filled with adventure, now sadly we are dull. We have nothing to write living in crap suburbia in North County San Diego. I love reading our old blog post, and hate that I have nothing of substance to contribute now. London has been calling to us for far too long and we are starting to feel like all the people we know that say "Someday I will..." We keep saying we will move back, but it keeps getting postponed. I look at the lack of posts to this site and feel a great emptiness I so desperately want to fill. I keep hoping that very soon we will be back to blogging on this site regularly with updates on a move and finally on our new life back in London instead of memories.
