Changes and possible changes

Changes are coming. After waiting for so many years, we are finally getting our house resided. They started yesterday prepping the house..,..pulling down trim, removing gutters, and started nailing up a foam and foil underlayment. I am sooooooo looking forward to the finished product.

The other possible change is job related. I am nearing retirement (early retirement) and would need to find a new job that covers certain things for me, namely medical insurance. That is the main reason I have not retired yet. Unfortunately, especially thanks to Covid, jobs are getting fewer and further between. So my prospects are a bit thin. Then along comes an email at work from a person that led a small team that I was on for a few days. He tells me he is changing orgs and is putting together a team and gives me the application information. It would move me from the hourly world into the salary world. Something I haven't been a part of since basically my military days. I started thinking that if there is a significant pay increase with the job to counter the amount of money I would lose (long story I am not getting in to right now) if I stay with the company past the end of this year, then this could be the answer I have been looking for. My interview is this Thursday. I'm kinda nervous. Not nervous about interviewing, I usually do pretty okay with that. But nervous that this won't be the answer to my situation and I have to turn the offer down and start looking outside of the company in earnest.
