I remember last year when that Seattle Americorps position was interested in me...

They sent me an email today inviting me to interview for a summer position from June-August and longer term positions from September-July of next year... They are hiring lots of people... Husband's willing to stay behind and let me go that far if I had the chance but I don't understand the extreme interest in me lol!

It's not like they considered all their recent applications and chose you to be interested in. They no doubt contacted many people who have applied in the past, hoping that even ten percent would be available and interested. Email contacts are incredibly cheap/easy to generate and you just got scooped up in a sweep.

Go ahead and apply if you want to. Just don't put too much hope in it and then later be depressed if it doesn't work out.

Husband says you could go, but he also freaks at the idea of someone else taking care of him. If you get hired in Seattle, he will either die from his own crappy care, or he will get a lot of extra services whether at home or in a group home. That's the situation in a nutshell.

I'd try to get him to go into the group home.
